Diezel Schmidt speakers

[temple12]

Hi all,

New to the forums as well as the owner of a a new Diezel Schmidt. I was just wondering what other form users liked for speakers on this amp?

I found the tonetubby hempcones to be a perfect match with the schmidt. I also like v30 very much but the hempcones are great! Very big sound even in a 1x12 cab

I use WEM Custom Starfinder 4x12 with Fane Crescendo.

Thanks!

What do you guys think about the difference between these and a v30 by comparison?

If you're into hard rock/progressive rock/metal, once you go Celestion you'll never look back.

I completely agree! The V30 for rock music. For crystal-clear sound, I would look for other speakers.
I also tried this amp with Celestion greenback g12m and Tone Tubby Nashville (Alnico and Ceramic). Personally for me Fane sounds better.
Sorry for my English...

Just another thought. The Eminence CV-65. They're almost identical in specs, the CV-65 is 5W> and the resonance is lower than the V30. However if you want to save a few bucks, the CV-65 is $50 less than the all mighty V30.

For me, V30 is King.

Or, to get some sort of "Greenback meets V30" you might check out the v-Type. This is a really nice sounding speaker with a much better cleansound than the v30.
Unfortunately I never tried it with the Schmidt but I could imagine this fits fine. It's also a bit cheaper..

Great suggestions, all... thanks so much!

For what it's worth, I had this in the port city 2x12 with a Naylor SD50 speaker when I got the amp: http://www.austinspeakerworks.com/KTS-70-p-16135.html. I pulled it out in favor of a V-30 recently, but thought I'd look for other suggestions. In case anyone was wondering, the KTS-70 had a bit too much treble for this amp and some kind of weird cone cry that was grating (but was great with a more vintage Marshall style amp before it). I'm keeping the Naylor in for now, but not sure if I want to change it out.

And oh yes, this is for RAWK.

You left out one important point, the v-type has only a much better clean sound than the V30 when you're testing it at the event horizon of a super massive black hole - you only get one shot at it.
