V30 instead of Tone Tubby and TT Diffusor

[slivoid]

I have a Diezel 4x12 cab rear-loaded with Tone Tubby Hempcone.
I plan to change the Tone Tubby speakers for 4 Celestion Vintage 30.

I know the sound is very directional with V30, so I thought installing TT Diffusor (http://www.tube-town.net/ttstore/product_info.php/language/en/info/p1687_TT-Diffusor-12-.html).
What do you think about this ?
Is it useful ?

Thanks

Personally I would not install the TT diffusors, but that is not a recommendation just opinion. Of course some people like them alot, but I think it depends also what kind of sounds you are after. Those people who I have met and are using the diffusors are usually more "traditional" -type of guitarists looking for a bit more mellow tones than so called "modern" more edgy tones.

It might be an idea to experment a bit with duct tape etc. To certain extend you can do the very same as the diffusors by taping the front grill. I think SRV used this method.

As iak said, a pice of tape can do the same.

Also I would suggest to think about a V30/G75T or V30/CL80 combination.

And if you plan to sell a couple of the Hempcones shoot me a PM (I assume you are in Europe)

No diffusor or beam blockers. Use this.

It's the same, the homemade version ? no ?

No they work on different principles. The one you show can cause phasing issues. Similar to webers beam blockers which I've tried. The doughnut is much better.

Yes. The Mitchell doughnut is the best i have tried so far. You'll net need to adjust your prescene and treble a Little bit and you have much better on axis/ off axis congruence.
