G112 Celestion V30 : Speaker is good, cab not so much

7 years ago

I bought this mainly for the speaker and put the Celestion 70/80 from my Blackstar combo in it.

I feel this cab is worth the money for the speaker that's in it. I found the cabinet itself to be very muddy sounding without proper bass content. I also wasn't able to dial in enough high frequencies for it to not sound boxy. This was the case with either V30 and 70/80 in it.

I feel like cabinet walls are too thin for it to sound ok. When I compared it to Palmer 1x12 with V30s in it, the Palmer sounded much more open and with enough natural bass content. For a cheap 1x12 I would go with the Palmer one.
