Members bohemoth Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 i have this HUGE peavey 412f that i keep posting about but no one knows much about. the top and bottom speakers are seperated from each other to make 2 2x12s. The speakers in it now are {censored}, some bassy speakers with huge square magnets. They're unmarked and they need replacing. I've got a marshall 1960a with 75s that i love. Its got a great crunch, i love how much low end it has. Its about tight enough for me, but sometimes it doesnt cut enough, and the chirpy high ends are pretty annoying. I have been thinking about getting more of these for my peavey, but I'm SURE theres a better option for me out there. Im sure everyone will say v30s, but im scared they wont have the low end i need. What are some other options? I don't neccessarily scoop my mids, but i keep them a little low to keep the palm muting sounding good. im playing a vtm120 mostly.

Members chrispsullivan Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 v30s will definately tighten up your basscheck out celestion cl80s for tightening up bass tooalthough the g12t75s are plenty tight as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bohemoth Posted November 28, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 more and more i think Xing v30s and 75s in both cabs will be the best decision. theres a guy on craigslist who has some for $50 apiece...should i buy legit celestions or go with warehouse ones? i think the 8ohm of the ones on craigslist will throw everything off if i want to wire them with the 16 ohm 75s.

Members baja85 Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 Hah, I've got one of those. I've been using it as a bass cab for about a year now, it's a typical Peavey, tough as nails. I just recently found out it's intended to be a guitar cab - oh well! From what I understand these were built in the early/mid 80's. I'll be interested to hear of your results with the new speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
