So true. There's only so much volume, gain and low end Greenbacks can take. Thats why I love the 65s, pretty much the same GB midrange character only they can take alot more abuse ! Thats also what I don't like about any Wizard amp I've had, after 2 (not o'clock) on the volume, they pretty much lose the tightness & definition in a big way.


I dont think the new Wizards are like that Gary.[/quote]

Allright, guys.... a little off here, but How would you guys compare these 65's to G12H's? Gary keeps telling me these are the cat's ass speakers. I hate him spending my money! ;)

You're gonna hate me a bit more because the 65's are one of my favorite speakers ;)
If you like Greenbacks you should dig the 65's bigtime. Hell I like them better then greenies ;)

I haven't heard the new re-issue 65's in person but I heard that they are killer (although they are priced way to high!! If you have someone who could hook you up, I suggest you do so!!)

65's are much better than H30's. H30's have a big hole in the upper midrange response, more bass and treble than the 65's. i can see why H30's were used as bass speakers.

If you like a GB voiced speaker, you'll probably like the 65's. Ive tried both the Heritage and old ones....they sound the same to me. I can also see why the 65's were upgraded over time to be the 75's. 65's are a bit light in the bass and rolled off on the highs, but pretty balanced overall.

More like downgraded to 75s :lol: :LOL: The 65s aren't the champions of low end, but they've got much more than a GB.
 
And I should get the heritage reissues not the older originals?

Heritage period. Get two & combine them with your G12H30s. You'll love it :yes:

What I mean with the 75's......I can see where guys with 65's would have been looking for more bottom and sharper more defined top before the 75's were developed....

I know what you mean. At that time players already had a choice for more bottom & sharper, defined top in the G12-80. That speaker is literally a 65 with a (50 oz) large magnet. Old Anthrax tones are a good example of G12-80s.
