I have seen alot of threads asking about wich cabs with what speakers to buy for the Mark V so I figured it would be nice to make a thread where everybody could share their experience with their setup.
I bought the combo so I got the Black Shadow speaker to begin with but then my speaker failed and unfortunately my Mesa dealer didn't have any spare so I got a Vintage 30 speaker(It's only 50 watts so I can only use 45 watt mode at the moment :<) while I'm waiting for my replacement speaker. The V30 does sound very bad to my ears compared to the C90. There is no "oomph" and it's way too bright. Of course the cab is half open and I've heard that you should use V30's with closed back cabs, so that might make some difference.
Then I got to try my amp in a 4x12 Marshall 1960a. I must say I was very impressed, of course the 4x12 moves alot more air so it sounds alot "fatter". So now I was wondering if I whould buy 4x12 cab. I was hoping to see some people with 4x12's in this thread that could help me make a decision. I can only try Mesa cabs with V30's at my dealer since my dealer is very small and I was hoping someone here has tried a 4x12 with 4 c90's.
Gotta run, please share your experience's!
