I have Some weber stan spec greenback clones too that I bet would make that thing sound killer! Maybe he would do a trade for my kramer? :confused:
 
I've had a few 5150's and the combo was the first I had, and the best sounding one. I thought it sounded good, then I plugged it into one of my greenback cabs and nearly shit myself at the difference. I pulled the POS sheffields out and put some blackbacks in it and it sounded great. I sold it to buy a head, since the combo is the size of a small truck, but I never thought the head sounded as good.
 
i like the 1200's more than celestion 65's.

better balanced, no wierd mid hump in the speakers EQ, and better deffinition for the low end. they just sit better in the mix with my 5150.

however i like the growl that 65's have.

but greenbacks have always sounded fucking phenominal with my amplifier. 25's, 30's, green, black, grey, they have all sounded awsome.

even splawns small blocks sounded great for modern stuff which are G12M copies (30W heritage greenies)

im serious rian go give that amplifier a rundown - that looks like its right up your alley :thumbsup:

the size does suck. but again i use 2 cabinets and a head all the time. again, nothing i couldnt move with handtrucks.
