Any love for Sheffield 1290 speakers?

The Sheff 1290s are fine. People jump on that bandwagon of wanting X-pattern this or that's and whatever speaker is the hot ticket. I have them in a cab loaded with GT75 and they work as well as the classic 1960 cab. Let people knock them so they are always cheap as you could work night and night with these and in a band the minute nuances are not even noticeable. They are supposed to be USA-made copies of the Celestial 80.

I just picked up a Peavey 4x12 cab that has front mounted 1290 speakers today for a good price. I'm a fan of Celestion G12H-30s and Vintage 30s, as well as some of the Eminence speaker models, but these speakers are quite good for a heavy bottom end sound and handle that raw, angry crunch my Orange Rocker 30 head delivers. Is there anyone else who enjoys this model speaker?
