Usually they are $150, not sure what avatar speakers sells them at. Only tried the Celestion century, not the vintage and it was okay, but not a great match for the Vox AC30CC1 it came in.

I bought a pair of them when they were $79 each last month. I really like them. I just need to get a 2x12 cab to load them in. I have one of them in a 1x12 cab and it sounds great. Pulled a V30 out and popped the Century V30 in and other than a noticeable jump in volume it was close enough in sound to not think about it again. Didn't even change the settings on my amp. And damn they are light!

I had a quad in my live rig for a while. I liked them better than standard V30s and they made my VHT 4x12 less than 60 pounds.

I may need to get some.

The Century Vintage is a decent sounding speaker, as mentioned above close to the V30.

The one I own resides currently in my combo and I love the weight. In the past I have paired the Centuty Vintage in a 212 with a G12H30, great sounding cab but uncomfortable to carry with the topmount handle
