Dom in Dorset Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I need a new speaker for my Laney RB7, I've extracted the dud one and it's a 10" Celestion , on the back end it says BL10-70. The Celestion website doesn't have such a thing. It's a 16 ohm speaker , also on it is : T549A ,10 LR and 50. The amp is 300W Any ideas?

Phil Starr Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 you are best off replacing it with an identical speaker especialy as it works as one of a pair. It is almost certainly made specially for Laney, so contact them. Failing that it might be worth contacting Celestion, They have an email service branded as Dr Decibel and are pretty helpful. Laney first though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevy-stu Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 you could contact Headstock who are the Laney distributors and see if they'll sell you a genuine replacement. As above contact Celestion direct, or upgrade the pair to something higher spec so they don't fail in the future.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom in Dorset Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 I've emailed Laney but "[color=#FFFFFF]due to the very high volume of queries we cannot always guarantee a response"[/color] I'll email Celestion too, see who (if anyone) gets back to me first.

Phil Starr Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 If I get time today I'll see if my mate Andy at Axe Music can get hold of one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom in Dorset Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) Both companies have replied!!!!! Laney want the serial number and Celestion say that it's discontinued but have recommended an alternative. It looks like I will get a solution. edit - both of Celestion's recommendations are only 8ohms, I'll see what Laney come up with.

Dom in Dorset Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 Laney have come up with the goods. They don't use that exact speaker but they are sending me the one they use in that type of amp now. Cost including VAT and postage £27.12.

Grangur Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 This may be worth a look http://basschat.co.uk/topic/268186-10-eminence-delta-10a-bass-driver-350-watts-8ohm-sale-or-trade/page__pid__2861827#entry2861827 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom in Dorset Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) It's only an 8ohm, I need (and have ordered) a 16. (for about half the cost ) Edited September 9, 2015 by Dom in Somerset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
