Speaker suggestions...

wyldewyatt · 05-14-2012, 08:04 PM

I am about three weeks out from the first phaez railgun ( a dc 10 based amp with an added preamp tube and extra circutry to sound like an afd 100). Which speaker would best compliment this type of hot rodded Marshall voiceing?

If it's voice for Marshall I would go with Ted Weber Silver Bell's.

I am putting an Eminence Wizard and a Governor in my setup, to give me a great british tone that stays tight with some bottem end and gets some nice highs and mids as well.

Checking out the different speaker offerings from Warehouse speakers: Warehouse Guitar Speakers | Warehouse Guitar Speakers would be worth it. Great speakers and a great price. They can help you select the speaker you want too.

Just had a Sourmash 2x12 cab built for my Phaez Duophonic (rocket clean channel and a daisycutter) 25 watts. I went with a WGS ET65 and a Veteran 30. Sounds awesome!!! I play blues, classic rock and death metal, and it performs awesome with all those styles. Takes pedals great too!

I love my Scumback. You should look at their Blackbacks:

For me anything Marshallesque sounds divine through Greenbacks.

I did a speaker test yesterday with a Marshall JTM and a few speakers I had laying around.
I ended up sticking with the Vintage 30, but had to admit that the Eminance Manowar had better dynamics. It stayed true to the British sound as well.

So many great suggestions I'm almost more troubled than when I stated so many options....

I usually start with a pair of broken-in Vintage 30's when auditioning a tube amp. That's still my go-to speaker for Marshallesque amps. I'm also good with an Eminence Tonker or a Texas Heat. And finally, if you don't mind a bit more clean, check out the Eminence Delta ProA, a 16-pounder that will remind you of the EV-L.

To be honest with Marshall type amps i would use a British voiced speaker. The main options are;

Alnico G12 and clones
Greenback G12M and clones
V30 and clones

I have two 2 x 12 cabs. One loaded with Weber British alnicos ( darkish, chimey, clean, rich, laidback, velvety...) And one with a Tayden Greenback clone (jangly, alive, clear, crunchy, controlled low end, 60s 'hippy', hendrixy tone).
I don't really like V30s...
