So many people make V30's sound great to me, but they're always have way too extreme of an EQ curve for the way I like to craft tones. I have older Celestion 65's in the 2x12 I record all my demos with and it's perfect for how I work. Just even/dark enough to get me to a neutral tone I like without sounding too muffled, spikey or scooped in any weird ways. I really want to try those ET90's out, whenever I'm able to raise the funds to build some new guitar cabs...or just buy the speakers to swap out in my Marshall.

I think V30's are very picky about the box they go into. In the Orange and Mesa cab's they sound killer but in every other cab I've tried em in I was always let down. Tons and tons of mids but no low end at all. The reason I like the 65's is just as you mentioned neutral / dark but not muffled, they tame the high end of an amp very very well. If your not playing guitar in a band and just recording then i'd say just swap em out when you get a chance!

Yeah, I think I'm just going to save up and hopefully swap them out in my 4x12 next year. That or maybe just go ahead and sell the stock G12T-75 speakers now, since I never use the 4x12 much at all. One of the bands I've done as a recording project is planning on transition to live gigs early next year, so I want to translate that sound I get with my 2x12 to a louder, higher power format.

Anyone who has ever met me will assure you that I am the opposite of macho. Fortunately for me, there is enough pure, uncut white trash coursing through my veins that I am a hopeless muscle car guy.

I think I'm the only dude on here that seems to love v30's. I do want to replace the m-70's in my Laney cab with some K100's or 75's, tho. Just for contrast from my Butcher cab.

V30s are my favorite. I don't currently own any but I would choose them given the opportunity.

I love v30s. One of my cabs has v30s, the other Electeic Lightnings and Wizards in an x pattern. It's a heavy combination. Same with recording. Of all the different cabs and speakers I have used, I prefer v30s on recordings by far.
