Is a v30 the Speaker of Choice for a Shiva? Others?

[lpaul626]

I just had a Lopoline slanted diagonal 2x12 built to use with my Bogner Shiva El34 head ('09). I'm debating as to whether to install the 2 Celestion v30s I had in a Mojotone 2x12 or try something else.

Is there anyone that has tried v30s with their Shivas and switched to something warmer, and fatter with smoother highs? Perhaps pair one v30 with a _____??

It seems like the v30 is really the most popular for Shiva users . . .

Has anyone tried g12-65s with the Shiva?

Tried EVH greenbacks and the Cl-80.
V30's by far with the Shiva.
XTC I'd go greenbacks.

Anyone else?

I have the Bogner OS2x12 with v30's and it works perfectly.

I haven't tried any other speaker than V30s, but I don't feel the immediate need to. My Shiva sounds great through my Diezel 2x12RL.

V30s hurt my head with the 20th Shiva. I switched to G12K-100s and G12-65s
