I've been busy trying lots of amps/speakers, & cabs lately. I like testing different amps with different cabs/speakers to see the differences in sound.
I currently own:
Bogner Uberkab Celestion V30's & T-75's in an X pattern(rear loaded)
Krankenstein Straight Cab with Eminence Texas Heats(rear loaded)
Marshall Mode Four MF400 Straight Cab with Celestion K-100's(rear loaded)
Peavey MS412 Slant Cab with Celestion K-85's(rear loaded)
Carvin Vai Legacy Straight Cab V-30's(front loaded)
Carvin V3 straight Cab with Celestion T-75's(front loaded)
Carvin MTS Angled Cab G12's(front loaded)
Carvin 2x12 with Celestion T-75's(front loaded)
Crate US Made Cab with Celestion Vintage 30's
What are your favorite all around speakers? How much difference does the cab their in make?
I played my 5150II through a Mesa cab and it sounded awesome, but never have owned a mesa cab.
I like each of these speakers for their own qualities. T-75's at this point are slightly ahead of all the rest in my opinion currently. This changes almost daily though lol. I really like the tight bottom end chunk of the T-75's and the relatively smooth mid and top end. V30's have a somewhat woofy type of mid range not quite as tight as the T-75's bottom end and a little more highs. The K-85 & K-100's are very similar in sound most likely because most people say it is the same speaker. Very flat response with the K-85/100. Both respond well to EQ changes on the amp and have tight bottom ends. These speakers can sound any way you want them to and they will do it really smooth. Eminence Texas Heats have a much different sound. They almost sound like they're in a different location than what they are, hard to describe. Very deep sounding, the most bottom end of any speaker aI own or have tried. Subdued mids/highs, absolutely thunderous lows.
