What speaker to mate with Eminence Governor?

Planning on trading in my Laney for either a Marshall DSL 50 head, or a 6505+ head. Yea they are totally different and i played both of them the other day, but I wont be able to keep my current Eminence V12 speakers. So, i figured a Governor and a ManoWar (like G12T75) would be a good sounding combo for either in my Splawn 2x12 closed back cab.

Unfortunately, i cant seem to find a manowar or a g12t75 that someone wants to sell USED, at least not any time soon. If anyone has either, give me a shout cause i will be interested. If not, is there any other speaker that would work well with the gov. for high gain sounds? I hear both amps can be bright and piercing, so even with my idea of these two speakers it still may be too bright. I will be keeping my weber beam blockers though, so it will help. Thanks once again guys!

I've got a governor/screamin eagle combo in my ear candy 212 right now. I like it, though sometimes I feel like its a little too smooth. Might be worth checking out though.

I have a Governor and a Wizard in my 2x12. The combination has a really pronounced midrange, so it sounds great for lead tones.

I have used a V30, a Screamin' Eagle, a Wizard and a R,W&B with success. the key is to get something that isn't so mid heavy. Two Gov's are too mid heavy. The V30 goes against this grain, but has frequencies the Gov doesn't.

We have a red knob twin 2x12 100 watt amp. It sports a Governor and a Wizard. To my ear that combination works real well in this amp.
Good Luck
