Hi everyone,

I bought one of the new Diezel Rearloaded 4x12 cabinets (along with a FL) about two months ago with Vintage 30 speakers in it. I thought V30s were the only option (as far as rearloaded goes) for the music I play, which is hard rock/heavy metal. Now, I read that the hemp cones (ToneTubby?) seem to be capable of these tones as well. Maybe someone can help me out deciding if I should keep the V30s or put the hemp cones in it. What is the difference soundwise? And where can I get them in Germany?

For the frontloaded cabinet I like the V30 with my Herbert, but a little less with my VH4 :confused:

Thanks,
Markus
 
G12K100 will solve the front loaded issues. The Hemp cones sound fantastic. They are a US speaker. They may be available via a distributor but I am unaware of that. We get ours from CA. They have a wonderful sound to them and they are crisp and articulate. They provide a warmth and fullness that is terrific. They can really handle low end and they don't get flubby. I feel the Hemp sounds best in rear loaded and the g12K in a front loaded. I do not like them in reverse combinations....but that is me (and Peter Stapfer as well). I hope this helps answer your questions :)
 
Terry - do you sell the new hemp cone speakers? Or can we get them from someone else? How much $?
 
I don't have any right now but am getting some. I am waiting to hear back on pricing, bare with me :)
 
Wild guess would be TT Alnico 10", but I'm pretty sure they were black....

I'm sure its a 12". $299 is the price for one 12" hemp cone speaker on the Tone Tubby site. :scared:

Yes....they are not cheap but they sure do sound good with the new construction and design. :thumbsup: :rock:
 
What about the ceramic version of the speaker? Are they equally good in tone? Have you tried them? They look interesting because they are way cheaper ;)
 
damn, if i would bring a hemp-loaded cab into the rehearsal room, for sure our singers would set the whole thing on fire to get wasted. :aww: :lol: :LOL:
