Tim Marcus of Milkman Amps uses these as his standard speaker...and I've started using them everywhere now...I trust Tim's endorsement, and my ears agree with him.
Bought these for an old Twin to replace the original Jensens. These aren’t too bright and are a great replacement. Sounded great right out of the box (with added break in service). Quick shipping too!
These ceramic speakers sound absolutely fantastic for clean and loud. You can dirty them up with pedals and you will hear exactly what is going into them. I have them in several Milkman and Fender Amps. Superb!
Installed a 12LC 50w in a Carr Rambler that had the Kingpin 60 speaker in it. Sounds beautiful, the Kingpin speaker had some brash highs going on and the 12LC fixed that and overall tone is just better, smoother top end, tighter low end, sounds like I thought the amp should. Looks great too, highly recommended.
The Jupiter replaced a dark-sounding (WGS) Amperian Revolution in my Eddie Wang Quantum Zen. Now the sound is just what I was looking for: brighter, clearer and classically American.
Orders have a lead time of approximately 1 week to ship.
