Heh Heh, I was wondering what you thought of the Alnico Creambacks.
Before I even watched the vid, I saw the British V30's for sale in your sig.
So I guess I know the answer.....
 
OK, watched the vid. Nice demo :rock:
Lots of variety in the tones, and nice to hear a couple different guitars.
There is something really cool going on in the mid-range with those speakers. There is a very slight crispy-ness in the high end that I think will disappear when they break in, but man they sound sweet right out of the box.
I was on the fence about trying a pair in my Wizard 4x12 with some Heritage G12H-30's, but now I'm sold.
 
Damn...very sweet tone there, reminds me of a sweeter version of an original 65.
 
Sounds like good broken in speakers to me. Excellent tone.
 
Nice demo! I bought one of these on black Friday. It should be here Monday, looking forward to trying it in my Dirty Shirley 1x12 cab.
 
Sounds really good man. Those cleans are stellar.

Can't wait to hear them with the Wizard.
 
They seem to handle gain better than the Blues/Golds, yet still sound good clean.
 
That sounds amazing. I just a/b'd this vid with your other BE vid with V30s. These speakers seem to have wayyy more clarity.

How do you think these would do with a darker amp like an XTC?
 
curious, have you tried those speakers yet with the SLO?

how do you think they would pair?
 
They sure sound smooth and without any nasty spike. Now to wait for a sale on them.....

Yes , I filmed a SLO and a Wizard video as well :)

Sounded GREAT with both of them.

Can't wait to see the Wizard vid :rock: Is it posted yet?
 
Reza thanks for the clips...
Speakers sound great...
But I don't think they sound so much better than my g12h30s 75hz..if the price was better I would give them a shot...
They may worth the price but too expensive for me...
 
As a v30 guy the one thing that annoys me is the ear fatigue. After awhile the highs just take over and my ears are shit.

I'm not going to dump $800 just for speakers but these do intrigue me. Thanks for the post.

Awesome, SLO clip soon??
 
I do not like all the upper mids. They sound out of phase.

My WGS 65 speakers aren't so narrow sounding. I have them in my Bogner cubes and Lopo Line 2x12's
 
those creams sound really nice... its almost like rick voiced these amps for low efficiency speakers hence you mentioning they need more to crack those 90 watters
 
I meant the wiring to the speakers sound out of phase. Not the recording
