Which speaker? (Peavey Classic 50 content)

[ledvedder]

I currently have 1 Eminence Legend V12 and 1 GB12 in my Classic 50 2x12. I'm considering swapping the V12 for something different. Which one of these speakers would you recommend?

Eminence Texas Heat
Eminence Delta Pro 12a
another Eminence GB12

Greenbacks have always been my favorite speakers with the C50 - so I'd probably suggest another GB12

Ya, greenbacks would be good. You could try mixing a greenback with an H30...the H30 will add some nice chewy mids and extend the lows.

I would maybe check out an alnico speaker. I think it would compliment that amp's tone well.

+1 This is what I was thinking too. My buddy with a Classic 30 has an anni G12H30 in his combo and a WGS Vet30 in the extension cab. I am not sure I am sold on the Vet 30 with that amp, but the G12H30 is nice with it.

I went a long time not liking H30 speakers. I used to think they were too harsh for some reason. I've come to my senses, an H30 is the tone of rock to me now.

I highly recommend the Weber 1230 with the pre rola treatment...at just over $100 it's a great deal compared to the price of a Heritage H30.
The Weber has a more vintage and chewy sounding mid, and the highs are smoother compared to the Celestion Anniversary H30 I was using.

Thanks for the responses so far, but I'm specifically asking about the 3 Eminence speakers I have listed.
