WGS Speakers - Any Experience?

I think he actually has 58 amps.

Haha I’ve got 52 speakers (only gonna keep like half of them), mostly vintage ones. One of the most important parts of the sound imo. Gotta have speakers as good as the actual amps

It was a real shot in the dark but I wouldn't be surprised

Yep, I still find surprising how much people struggle looking for new pickups but buy cabs almost randomly.

My dad ended up scoring like 8 Retro 30’s in a storage locker purchase or something. I put two of them in a 2x12 I had and really dig them. I know it took me a lot less time to find the sweet spot on those speakers than it did the V30’s I had in that cab a few years back. They seem like a tamer version of V30’s, I suppose that can be said is more “mic friendly” or “not as harsh”. Sounds great with whatever you throw at it though, from spanky clean to modern metal.

Oh look at me with 58 amps and I'm cheap when it comes to speakers...blah blah

For real, get your hands on some DV-77's and I promise you will dig those. Sorry I cant help with the WGS speakers though, no experience there.

I just got an IR pack made with a DV77 and it fuckin’ rips! Most usable IR pack I’ve bought yet (and I have over 40,000 IR’s).
I’ve read it’s suited for heavier stuff, but I‘m using in my AxeFX on a Matchless, JTM45 and a Carol Ann amp, all doing edge of breakup stuff. I was initially going to grab a couple Mesa 2x12’s for a live rig, but now I’m thinking the DV77’s are the way to go.

FOR THE RECORD - I don't even know how many amps I have, but you guys probably aren't far off with your estimates. LOL

I definitely don't "cheap out" on speakers or cabs, as I have a number of top tier offerings, Friedman, Bogner, Engl, Mesa, Diezel, etc among many others.

This is just another part of my tone quest and "gotta try em all philosophy"

I have a pair of DV77's that have been sitting here, naked and enclosureless for about 3 weeks now. I should really get those into my Mesa cab with the V30's

The Omega Amp works VM12-65 speaker seems to sound really good. Kristian Kohle from youtube did a demo of them and they sounded pretty good.
