Drivers for guitar and bass [can of worms]

Post by Xander8280 »

Long story short I play a Fender VI(as well as four strings)and have a heavy right hand. I built a couple KT120 powered amps that I run through a handful of cabinets. G12T-75, V30, and eminence V30 equivalents from an American made orange cabinet. I enjoy eminence delta 12LF speakers but, they are SO dark.


I have a cabinet with a 10" whizzer cone but, that fails to have the ice pick that the celestions. Maybe I'm destined to run a crossover? Mixing the delta 12's and g12's is nice but, can't get too bassy for fear of creasing the cones of the guitar drivers or worse.

Has anybody used G12K-100 speakers with bass guitars/keyboards?

Are they any guitar drivers that are rated for 200W?




Thanks for any help...

Maybe ask Weber about the Black Shuck.

12", 60oz ceramic magnet, 200 watt, 2" voice coil, 55Hz ribbed cone. For the most low end and highest power situations.



I have a custom Weber alnico with a 55hz cone, and that thing gets some deep lows in Weber's 2x12 cab.
It's true i've lost my marbles and i cant remember where i put them
