Need speaker advice for 2x12 cab please

1

Hey guys. I need some help/advice please…

I have a large semi open-back 2x12 (Avatar Traditional with the oval cut out) that I want to load with a pair of WGS speakers.

The 3 amps I want to use this cab with are:

  • Marshall Silver Jubilee (100 watts)
  • Budda SD18 (18 watts)
  • Allen Brown Sugar (30-watts)
  • Mesa MKIII (90 watts)

So as you can see, I require 100-watt power handling.

What WGS speakers do you think would work well for these amps?

I’ve been thinking a lot about a Reaper HP mixed with something else… Maybe a Retro or Vet? I want to make sure I get a good dose of upper-mids and not just have booming bass and tons of highs.

I already own the Reaper 55 (30 watt) and really like it… but, I’m not sure how similar the Reaper HP is to it.

Thanks in advance!

Wow … great cabinet … and awesome amps!
Okay … so, yea, with that oval port, the cabinet does a great job of augmenting low-end … so I get ya on “I want to make sure I get a good dose of upper-mids and not just have booming bass and tons of highs.” Man … I think what you need in that mix is a little thick, midrange heavy green-back tone … and obviously a Green Beret won’t handle the Marshall … so … I’d go with the Reaper HP paired with an INVADER. That sounds like just what you are looking for.
