Weber Legacies are my favorite speaker. I have 6 of them......and 2 more on order!

Which options did you go with on yours? Are they all the same? Mine are 65w w/30oz magnets. I just ordered another two the same way, except with 40oz magnets.
They mix really well with 50w Silverbells, by the way.

I have a 4x12 with a mixture of 30oz and 40oz 65 watters.....and the same in my Splawn 2x12. It feels good not to worry about speakers anymore!

I also had the 30 watt/30 oz but I like the 65 watters a lot more. There is quite a bit of difference tonewise between the two......even at low volumes.
 
Just ordered two Lynchbacks, $250 shipped. I was told by my Celestion contacts that they are a little smoother and darker than the Creambacks.
The funny thing is, I hate 80s metal and don't play metal....but I like the clips I hear of the Lynchbacks.

This guy is a good dude and nice player. Nice clips of the Lynchbacks.

Im LOVING my Lynchbacks but since I am getting a Splawn, I decided to order a Creamback to mix with one Lynchback in my Stone Age 212.
I will have one Lynchback for sale shortly if anyone is interested.
 
I'm going to have to check the difference between the Creamback and the G12H-65.
 
It's all getting so confusing with speakers and will keep you in knots. I just plug everything (except my Mesa) into a 412 HW Marshall with H30's that came in it...... :thumbsup:

Meanwhile, I have about $1600 worth of new Scumbacks to put into something one of these days......
 
I like the Lynchback and the clips of Creambacks better than Scumbacks.
 
I would love to hear a Lynchback mixed with a G12-65 in a 412 cabinet. I might have to try that one, but mixing speakers gets messy.
 
Update, I ended up going with Creambacks for my Stone Age. I ended up going with Lynchbacks fr my Splawn 412, but might mix them with G12-65s.

What led you away from mixing the Lynchback and Creamback? What's your take on how those two compare? Thanks :thumbsup:
 
Creambacks are available at this point ? I havent seen them for sale anywhere... I have a quad of Lynchbacks in my Splawn 4x12 and they sound great, at the moment I like them more than greenbacks. They have a more pleasing breakup to them, the bass is a little thinner\tighter, overall it is darker and smoother as mentioned earlier. Greenbacks work great for me live though , they cut in the mix really good..I havent tried the lynch's live yet though , Im hoping they do the same.

Creambacks are not available in the states yet, only in Europe. I am only going by clips and what Rick from Celestion told me that the Creambacks are like taking the Heritage or EVH Greenback and adding a bigger, tighter bass. So, I wanted a good V30 212 which I have and a good Greenback 212 which will be my Creambacks. Then I wanted my Splawn 412 to be a blend of modern and vintage, hence the Lynchbacks. :) I find the Lynchbacks work better in a 412 than a 212 because the natural low end of the 412, helps. Otherwise I may mix the Lynchbacks with G12-65s or Creambacks in my Splawn 412 if I find it necessary.
 
I hear people comparing the Lynchbacks to Celestion G12T-75s. I don't hear that. I hear Greenback and maybe a little K100 thrown in.
 
I just rec'd a quad of Lynchbacks yesterday, but haven't plugged them in yet.
