Hello everyone,
We are moving into a condo in the spring and I want to downsize my cabs as I find my current 12" cabs too much for even jamming in my basement (at lower volumes). I've been through a pile of 12's and they all seem to want to be cranked up. I've got a Jensen in a Pro Jr combo which I really love. It's ratty, chimey and just sounds great no matter what I play through it. I've also got a Rocker 15 combo with the VOTW speaker which I surprisingly like. It's fast punchy and sounds great at lower volumes, hence my current infatuation with 10" drivers.
These won't be for rehearsing or jamming, just low-med volume practice and recording.
I'm on the hunt to get a compact 1x10 cab with a half decent speaker in it and since I like the P10R soo much in my PJ I figured I would give Jensen a shot. I play post rock/modern prog using an Orange Rocker 30 so has to be at least 60 watts (bit more wattage headroom with these amps is good though as they are severely underrated wattage wise. Once a year or so we head to a warehouse to record so it will get cranked up on the rare occasion), which really leaves me with the two options in the title.
I'm wondering if anyone has experience comparing these speakers? I like a bright (a little fizz is okay), punchy, in your face sound, but it MUST have good string definition.
Thanks,
