Depends on what head you're running through it I'd say. I like the way my 5150 cabinets sound with their stock speakers and my 5150 head, but I don't like the way they sounded when I ran my Marshall JVM410H through them.

I put V30's in my 5150 slant cab!
Sounds good to me!

I mean, if you're just looking at it on a construction basis, whats wrong with it?

Its built just as well as any Marshall cab IMO.

Yeah, Peavey cabs are fine, the jacks are sometimes a problem and the back is MDF, but so is a Marsha.
