I'm not sure I've even heard of those before, they look cool though (like that ever made any difference to something you only ever hear)

I'm so close to wanting to get a pair of Green Berets just to see if it will replace my Governor/Wizard combo.

I don't know what WGS' return policy is, but it's worth a try. In my somewhat limited experience with them, their products have been stellar, both in terms of reliability and tonal goodness.

Re: New speakers day! huzzah!
I've been waiting for my next check to come to get me a Retro 30 to replace the 70/80 in my combo. Let us know how the Retro 30 sounds. I've also been looking at the Reaper HP as well but don't own a 2x12 to justify buying one but the Retro 30/ Reaper HP combo is something i'm dying to try along with a Governor/Wizard combo.

Re: New speakers day! huzzah!
I already know how the Retro 30 sounds (I had a pair of em in my old 4x12).
The basic voicing is very similar to a Vintage 30, but tighter and more powerful in the bass, much smoother and way more open in the mids, not grainy or congested, and they have a chimey treble too.
I like them a lot.

Re: New speakers day! huzzah!
yeah the gainy sounds are fantastic with the Retro 30. Rich, crunchy and well defined. Though I feel like it only gets that way once it's broken in. It can be a bit grainy when it's new.
About the chime...there isn't a ton of it like you'd expect from a Fender amp for example...the retro30's chime is sort of like a sparkly/lively sounding treble. Fender-style chime comes a lot from the amp circuitry itself, not necessarily just the speakers.

Have you considered a G12H30 or variant, e.g. Wizard?

I looked at the Wizard and Governor but once I heard about WGS and their prices I decided to go with WGS. I still want to try a Wizard/Governor combo in a 2x12 one day.

a few months playing at low to medium volumes.
playing at high volumes often, it shouldn't take more than a few weeks.
