thisnameistaken Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I know a guy who's got one of [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php?p=8712924&postcount=26"]these[/url], which he was thinking about selling but he's discovered both speakers need replacing. He asked me if I know anything about speakers which of course I don't, so I thought it made sense to ask here on his behalf. That centre section of the cab is sealed with one speaker firing upwards, the other down so I guess there's not a whole lot of room in there. He wants it to present an 8 ohm load so I guess a pair of 16 ohm speakers? Any suggestions? I suppose he's looking for a suitably vintage sound.

Mr. Foxen Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Probably some sort of Celestion would be trad sounding. I'd message some oldschool speaker repair places and see what they recommend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Foxen Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Find what's in it, see if they still exist and ask what is nearest equivalent, or if they have some useful specs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molan Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) I have a pair of Celestion 15's from a Trace rig that I decided I was never going to use again. they came from cabs that also had 10's in & I 'robbed' those to use as replacement speakers in our stage monitors (where they sound great!). Can't remember offhand what models they are but the 10's are definitely 16 Ohms so I'm fairly certain the 15's will be as well. To the best of my knowledge they've only ever been gigged once! No idea if they are worth anything - maybe £50 the pair plus postage? Edited August 22, 2010 by molan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
