I made a post a while back regarding speaker suggestions for a 2x12 cab to go with my '75 Orange OR120 head. Well, since then I've lucked into an empty Mojotone straight front 4x12 cabinet, built to the specs of the '68 Marshall 4x12. Since my options aren't limited to exclusively higher power handling speakers, I thought I'd try again and see if anyone could throw some WGS speaker recommendations my way, as I have no prior experience with any of their models.
As a point of reference, I like a punchy, fairly bright sound which still retains that low end.....err, "wallop?" "Thump?" AC/DC, Stooges, MC5, early Aerosmith sort of tone. I'm primarily a rhythm player, and I'm playing a Gibson Les Paul with unpotted '57 Classic humbuckers.
My initial instinct is to go with a pair of Reaper HP's and a pair of ET65's in an X pattern. But I'd love to hear any other suggestions anyone may have. The Orange is a monstrously loud non-master volume amp, so I need a combination that'll handle that sort of power (i.e. no Green Berets or 30 watt Reapers, unfortunately). Thanks!
