Just ordered an Earcandy Buzzbomb

I'm going to put in the V30/G12H30 combo in this 2X12. Can't wait to hear it after all the great advice I got on it. :laugh2:

Here's a link to their site. Their descriptions get you all jazzed up but people on this forum advised it is the best 2X12 they've ever had. I was thinking of a Genz-Benz Gflex but nobody thought it was anywhere near as good as the Earcandy. I've never heard one but it was only $350 shipped with a great rep plus my choice of colors. They've got lotsa color combinations.

Gonna order one after the first of the year. I have a couple of Classic 80s on the way to drop in mine.

It is mainly going to be my cab for my new Vox AD60VTX. I'll also use a Crate Blue Voodoo and see if it is better than the stock Crate 4X12 which I also loaded with the same v30/G12H30 mix in an X pattern. If it is, I'll sell the Crate cabinet.

The classic 80's are nice speakers. Hope you get what you're looking for (and me too).

It doesn't come with the speakers for the $350. I just needed an empty cabinet because I've got a few extra Celestions.

Re: Just ordered an Earcandy Buzzbomb

Sure. Especially if you check out the Hellatones or any other good speakers on ebay. The Hellatone 60 is a Celestion Vintage 30 just broken in, and the Hellatone 30 is the Celestion G12H30 again, just broken in.

What wood/grill/colors and such did you get?

I got the Nessy Black for the Vinyl, the Galaxy blue for the back and front baffle to match my Vox AD60VTX colors. I stayed with the stock round metal grills. After talking with Tim, the president of the company, I told him to use the woods he thought would be best after telling him the speakers I'm using and for what amp. I assume it will be baltic birch, but I'll see what he picks. He's the pro and I really wouldn't know what the best wood would be, so here's hoping!
