Harley Benton 2x12

[ehdwuld]

Cheap plywood with voids should be avoided

I have seen 1/2 inch(12mm) and 3/4 inch (19mm) work very well

The 1/2 inch would of course be much lighter and feel flimsy but will be just as rugged as long as you use the right bracing

Does the Harley Benton have good enough low end? Will the Celestion V30 loaded 2x12 hold together with a dual rectifier and compare favourably to a Mesa with the same speakers?

Allot of guys used to use Marshall cabs with Celestion G12T-75 speakers with rectos back in the day.
G12T-75 have a scooped charecter. The V30 has a mid spike a giant honk. Dunno bought with a Mesa but I HATE!! them with a Marshall. For H speakers I think G12H-30 is much better than V30.
My favorite is G12-65 and in some case G12M-25

Aren't Mesa v30s the same as regular ones but with more doping on the cones?

It seems I heard that somewhere
