They're pretty highly regarded in the boutique amp world.
If you're curious, just call up John Harrison at 415-479-2124
and tell him what you are looking for, and he will tell you if
they will work for you.

Aaron,
Matching amp/cabs are a no brainer but not always exactly right.
But the right speakers can sound like ass in a bad cab too.
These days we are required to get all the guitar sounds on every
CD when in a cover situation. It's harder than a one sound only band.
In general the smaller cabs have a harder time with the low end
unless they're open back but then it's a little uncontrolled
due to rear reflections, wall and stage resonance. If you end up=20
having to over eq to get it, it won't sound natural. I love to see my=20
pants get wind torn from the low end as long as it's tight.
My buddy used to have that same rig if I'm not mistaken.
He used Thiele cabs with it. It sounded really good. I'm=20
not sure it sounded as good as it could with the Thiele=20
cabs though. Nice to spread them out for stereo!
Good luck with your search,
Tom

I'm starting to become a true believer in these too. Now that I'm used to
them, I'm using them nearfield (with a subwoofer) as my primary monitors and
using my NHT's midfield as a safety net. I'm also really impressed with the
Alesis Matica 900 power amp that is driving these (270 WPC into 8 ohms).
Very accurate sounding but smooth with no audible distortion at higher dB
levels than I'll ever use for mixing.
Cool beans.Not to belittle Uptown Jimmy's situation and thank "G" I have a computer
guru as a very good friend but doesn't this make you pine for the good old
days of analog

CMOS". This would "clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and system setup
parameters by erasing the CMOS RTC RAM data".
This involves removing the onboard battery and moving jumper cap from pins
1-2 to pins 2-3., then back to pins 1-2, then reinstalling the battery. It
says you have to enter the BIOS and re-enter data.
Is this the thing to do?

u might like the vintage 70s or =
sidewinder - check out some Marshal cabs with vintage 30s also. Make =
sure that your cab can handle the power of your amp.
As for tubes - 6L6s have wider bandwidth (brighter/fuller), EL34s roll =
off the highs lows/earlier (darker/thinner), the non linear stuff is =
very subtle at low volumes. I view power amp distortion as an added =
bonus - during transient peaks your amp wont flat line, it basically =
logarithmically compresses. But if you set a working distortion sound =
with power amp saturation - it won't be good for much else as any signal =
with dynamic range will sound distorted (flubby).=20
As with any guitar rig, it's very subjective - a different player + same =
combo of stuff can yield vastly different results. Experiment and have =
fun!!!.
I'm open for Q's ,
Latter=20
