This is one great speaker I bought for a guitar amplifier, as something of an EV-style speaker on a budget. It has a pleasant midpeak, that's rounded and sweet and takes distortion like a champion. It sounds woodier and more complex than what EV is known to put out, but that really works to my advantage, I think.
I actually bought two of them and will try to replace the dustcap with something a bit harder for a more lifted high-end. And I really think this speaker deserves that, being so well concieved. It may be part of the simpler line of PA-speakers of Eminences, but it doesn't take away from its performance.
I would really go as far as to say it's every bit as good as the Weber California I had, but at a half the price. Very nice 'thud' to its tone. May lack a touch of finesse as is, but nothing a good compressor wouldn't fix.
Some details, like the protection for the magnet, seems a bit so-so in quality, but that's really a moot-point and should you not like the magnet protectors they are removable for a more natural look.
