I just put an EVM12L (classic new production model) in my wide body closed back cab a few months ago. I was very pleased with the sound. I used it at a gig and it was huge sounding. The stock c90 seemed to scooped for me in that cab and I like the EVM12L much better.
When I purchased the Mark...

I currently have a 2x12 Recto cab with V30's and a 4x12 Mesa loaded with C90's and sounds huge! But I don't know if I would run...

I played my Mark V 25 through quite a few cabs all of which I own (except the Mesa Recto 1x12 which I got rid of).
