Ok, so I have the 5150 Iconic 15w combo. It has an internal 10" (16 ohms, 40 watts) speaker which sounds pretty good, but we all know more speakers == better. So I'd like to get a 1x12 extension cab to sit under it.
I think I'm mostly sold on the EVH 5150 III 112 cab. It's got a Celestion G12H 30w anniversary edition. From watching comparison videos, it sounds like a pretty good speaker. So given that, and the fact that aesthetically, it would look good being matched with the Iconic. It also being lower wattage, closer to the amp wattage and closer to the internal speaker wattage, I think makes sense/is a good thing?
I'm also considering the PRS Tremonti 112 (Vintage 30 speaker) or the PRS Archon 112 (Celestion V-type speaker). Both of these are 70 watts however. How big of a deal would that be, if the internal speaker is 40 watts. Would a 70 watts speaker be a poor match up?
Whatever I choose, it has to be a 16 ohms cab to match with the internal 16 ohms speaker.
Also, this is 100% for bedroom playing at low volume.
