Showman speaker question
Posted: Wed Nov 19, 2008 5:05 am
Hello to all showman players around,
I recently purchased a nearly mint 65 showman with nice 115 tone ring cabinet (with a reconed JBL D130f). Unfortunatelly the previous owner had done some bad mods (distortion and push pull poti for bright etc.). I will have the circuit done by a technican and I guess it will sound great again after that.
Can anyone of you tell me about the old Electro Voice Speakers, which are also used with showmans (what's the correct model and how do they sound compared to the JBL's) ? I'd be very interested in trying and comparing to the JBL's.
Zak wrote some interesting things bout speaker efficiency in the Reverbojet-thread. What could be a speaker with higher Efficiency than the JBL's - but which also have the great sound, we want for surf ? maybe some of the Weber speakers or are the EV's more efficient ?
a lot of questions - some speaker advice would be highly appriciated
