I use an Avatar 2x12 Bluesbreaker style cabinet which is sealed but has a farily high internal volume. With a 20 watt amp at medium output I love the G12H30 tone from Celestions however ...
I've moved to a 50 watt head that can really dish out some low end chunk. I'm doing heavier tunes and more drop D, drop C# tunings with this band and would like to replace my low wattage Celestions with WGS speakers. I'd like some advice on which driver would best suit me. My criteria are:
- Has to take a full 50 watts no problem.
- Must produce a rich, balanced tone (like G12H30's) without screechy highs (like Classic 30's) or weak mids (like GT75's).
- Ideally will have a stiffer cone so as not to "fart out" on the lower bass notes I'm now using.
- I'm shooting for a percussive bass response - not a mushy response.
- If I can't get any thing that matches all criteria I'd err towards a better bass response and hope to solve the other issues with amp EQ.
Any advice appreciated.
PS - I've had a number of people tell me how great WareHouse speakers are in the Jet City Amplification FaceBook community.
