Re: Holy Blackface, Batman!!!!!!
The Weber speaker that Ted used to call a C10Q is almost identical to the old Jensen C10N. Get two of those. lew

get a pair of Weber 10F125's cnd call it a day...the 30 watt versions will have a slightly smoother treble but the 20 watters sound killer too.

Re: Holy Blackface, Batman!!!!!!
That is one of the models that Weber recommends, Christian. I have those two Weber 10's but they are 16 ohm speakers wired up for an 8 ohm load for a Deluxe, so I can't use them without putting in a Mercury or comparable multi-tap OT and those cost as much as a new pair of Weber 10's. Plus it might mess with the Lux tone, ya know. These CTS AlNiCo's might do the trick. Seems to me that you have to pay a pretty heavy premium for the AlNiCo speakers from Weber as compared to the ceramics. All of the 10's I saw were around $85 per unit for ceramic.

Puck. I want to come down and check out the real estate opportunities on the finges of that urban renewal project in Riviera Beach. I may be too late though, assuming that it goes through as planned. Even Viking Yachts is talking about turning their service center and marina into a condo project. It sits right north of the WPB/Riviera Beach line north of the old Rybovich-Spencer yard that the Huizengas bought.

In the 10's the price is not too far part...example a 12F125 costs $85 a 12A125 costs $95...when you get into the 12's it's a bigger jump from ceramic to alnico.
Weber also suggests the 10F125 and that is way too much speaker for a Vibrolux...get the 12F125's trust me on that!

Re: Holy Blackface, Batman!!!!!!
I have not tried the Weber 12's but when I asked Lew about them he told me he didn't care for them and when Iasked Bruce he said they were "ok"...that tells me all I need to know about them!
I trust Lew and Bruce both very much...neither of them has done me wrong yet and so far the advice I have gotten from noth of them has been killer...
I might try a set of Weber 12's one day but not any time soon.

Yup...I'm familiar with it. I used to work at Rybovich (long long ago :wink: ).
I would imagine it's too late to get in on the bottom, but you can still get in there. There's enough crime in that city to keep the prices down for a while.
Atleast until the big money really starts rolling in.
Anyway, you're always welcome...I work a good BBQ :bigthumb:

Did you work there when Mike Matlack was there? i am still steamed about what happend there. Huizenga bought it, said he was converting to glass construction and then closed the yard. I don't know if they are planning to produce elsewhere. i thnk Ryco should get the family name back. Mike and Marty are still building wood boats and Rybo's should be wood......as should Merritts, but they have been plastic for a few years now....yuck!!!!!:laugh2:

Regarding Ted Weber's 12's: I like his 10" speakers alot more.
Ted has a little problem with cone cry in his 12's and when he damps the 12 speaker heavily to avoid cone cry that also makes for a less responsive speaker.
I don't think Ted has it as together with his 12's as he does his 10's.
Not saying they're no good though...only that his 10's are better.
I've owned quite a few Weber 12's and Ted used to send me prototype 12's but I was hard to satisfy so he stopped asking me for advice.
When it comes to 12's I'm a Celestion guy.
