Members jay112 Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 hi guys i have a Celestion Seventy80 currently in my solid state 80 watt amp, which i use for practice. i have recently acquired a laney VC50 thats loaded with 2 HH vintage 60's, which are universally considered BAD speakers by laney owners. i was wondering if in your opinion(s), would i hear any benefits from taking my Celestion and swapping out one of the HH's? or should i just save up my pennies for a set of V30's (im very poor by the way!). is the Seventy80 a "good" speaker generally (i say generally because everyone is different and like different things) as for example a v30 is "generally considered a good speaker" by many rock/metal players? what im looking for is not a specific sound, just not farty at high volumes and with decent clarity. thanks in advance:thu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members the russ Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 they're not regarded as much except for cheap OEM speakers. save up for some used V30's. mow some lawns and save up $100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gig with them at pretty high volume and they sound great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rockon1000 Posted September 20, 2007 Members Share Posted September 20, 2007 They arent as bad as some make them out to be. A bit heavy in the mids not harsh on top though. They will fatten up a thinner sounding amp.Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
