Hey gents!

Looking for speakers for my Splawn 412 straight cab that is empty! Hehe.
I don't want to spend too much, no Scumbacks.

Amps are Bogner Shiva, PWE Event Horizon, fully modified Mesa Dual Rectifier to have much better mids sort of like a JCM 800 meets Dual Rec, and taking delivery on a JCM 800, also to be modded.

I like to match amps with speakers, so I have a Bogner cab with V30s and a Stone Age that has WGS Invaders, soon to be Celestion Creambacks.

Right now for my Splawn 412, I have Lynchbacks going in, but I want this cab to be a big classic warm tone that will handle classic rock to modern rock, I am in a 90s cover band.

I am thinking older Celestion Greenbacks. I prefer the Chinese Greenbacks over Heritage Greenies, they are smoother on top to me and have less sizzle.
So, I am thinking Greenies, Lynchbacks, V30/G12H-30, G12-65/T75, but I prefer to keep my 412 as light as possible, so 30 or 35oz magnets.

Thanks all!!! I appreciate the opinions and advice a lot! :) :) :)

from what I've heard of Lynchbacks they would sound pretty killer with a set of G12-65s

Is it a straight cab or angled?

I have Eminence Governers and Man O Wars in an X pattern in my Splawn straight 4x12 and it's been the best recording (or live, for that matter) cabinet over the years that I've ever encountered.

This is a straight cab. Thanks!

Not a fan of Eminence Governors, thanks though. I would much prefer a V30/T-75 mix, but since I already spent $250 on two Lynchbacks I am going to mix these with something or go with all Lynchbacks. I am thinking Lynchbacks/G12-65, Lynchback/Greenback at this point.

If I end up selling the Lynchbacks, then I would try something else like G12-65/T-75, V30/T-75, or V30/G12H-30, etc....
Maybe just all Greenbacks, classic!
