Note that these are rated for 75 watts. Ted Weber is quite conservative in his ratings so how this compares, head to head, with a higher power-rated neo speaker from Eminence, for example, I don't know. Price is higher than the Kappalite too. Could be that it is that much better. (I just got a Kappa from Tom Bradshaw and it sounds good so far--no complaints).
But this (Weber) is not a speaker that I would think you'd put in a 200W solid state steel amp |

I was thinking about putting one as a 15" experiment in my Hot Rod Deville 4x10 Fender.
If the aluminum dust cap really puts the zing on the tone, it might could work. |

I have one on order. I'm putting it in a 1x15 cab so that I can use it with all the various amps I have. I am very familiar with the D120F but unfortunately not the D130F, but I will write a review once my cab is set up. The review may or may not be of use to you because of the above or because of the fact that I play Tele and non-pedal steel but not a PSG.

Well, that's what I wanted to try out on my NV 112, but many friends are talking me out of changing that Blue M. So be it. But as I posted on other thread, when I hooked up NV 112( with 5 chip mod)head to various different speaker cabinets, i,e, Webb 614-E with JBL D-130F at 4 ohm, it sounded so good, I almost wanted to gutt it out the NV 112, and use it as a stand alone amp head.
Interestingly enough, I am not too happy with the sound of my any D-10 through Black face Deluxe reverb. That thing sounds fantastic with Tele, but I just don't get anything out of it for D-10...I'm sure many people argue about this.
However, I like the sound of D-10 through black face Super reverb with 4x10, so I don't know what gives...
I should try bass guy's X2 10" cabinets....
