A couple of weeks back I bought a WGS speaker after talking with a nice guy on the phone. I was looking for a speaker to replace the RW&B that came in my new Gries 12. I've heard the RW&B sound great in certain "D"-style amps, but I just wasn't digging it in this application. After explaining what I didn't like, and what I wanted to hear, I was told that you guys were working on a lower-powered 12" that could be just the thing. I was also told that even though it's not an "offical model", I could order one - so, I took a chance.
Well, it went in the Gries tonight and Oh My God! This thing is absolutely the most fun I've had in some time! Perfect match for a Princeton. Plenty bright, but no ice-pick. Perfect punchy mids, with howl, but no nasal qualities. And, perfect tight bass that's still big and warm. Best part is how the speaker "felt" to play. It was fast and extremely responsive. It made the little Gries come alive and alive with a definite vintage personality. (The weight savings is also greatly appreciated!)
You guys really hit it out of the park with this one. Seriously, I have heard a lot of speakers in a lot of amps... and I was expecting good, but I never thought it would sound this "settled in" and "right" directly out of the box. All I can say is THANK YOU and I hope I didn't spoil some big new model news release. :-) For this reason, I won't post my results on TGP, until I hear that it's okay here first. I don't even know what you're calling this speaker, but I can tell you one thing - you can stop fiddling with it, because the formula is right!
