NSD
« on: May 01, 2013, 11:19:42 PM »
So I decided to get some new speakers as I'm getting a new band together and initially it's going to be a 4 piece. I want to sound huge. Also, I'm a nerd and want to try new things, and I'm 30 this month and fancied a crazy early birthday gift for myself... so I got some EVM12L's.



These will begin life in an X pattern with V30's in my Soldano 4x12. Eventually I'd like a hefty 2x12 and I've also got a splitter and I'm building a killswitch so I can run 2 amps and have one cut in and out if I want. This is my crazy plan. I can't wait to try these speakers.

I'm hoping they'll be good mixed with the V30's. I should be able to try these out tomorrow.

How would you compare this speaker to the V30?

Haven't tried them yet, and sadly one is being returned.
They have a large vent down the centre of the magnet and the bottom is covered with aluminum mesh. One side of the mesh is loose on one speaker, so I've decided to return it and get one that is fixed in place 360 degrees around. So, I'll have to wait a bit longer to test both out.
