Amazing replacement speaker for my print and style amp.
I bought three 10” 4-ohm speakers during a sale to try in the Vibro Champ, an amp I record and rehearse with regularly. The M-10C was the winner for retaining volume, clean headroom and best breakup. The other two speakers were Alnico magnets. They all sounded great but the 15W Alnico seemed inefficient. It was noticeably not as loud The 25W paper Alnico was a little too creamy when it was overdriven. It would probably sound better with an EL84 type amp. The Ceramic M-10C is staying in the Vibro Champ as the best if the Fender style shootout - but you do have to lose the tube cage as the magnet on the M-10C is ginormous in comparison to the stick Celestion. That’s probably why it sounds so good!
This speaker brought new life to my Princeton Reverb - it’s balanced and sweet. A huge upgrade over the stock Jensen!
I wanted a vintage C10N for my PR, and this seemed to be the closest modern replica with paper former. Haven't turned it up to gig levels yet, but it sounds good at home. Fast processing and shipping. Jupiter claims they broke in the speaker, which I paid extra for, but how can you tell other than the fact that the speaker sounds good? Beautiful blue frame.
Orders have a lead time of approx. 1 week to ship.
10" seamed ribbed cone with Large Ceramic Magnet, the replacement for C10N, paper voice coil.
Similar to the 10LC but with less output but a more balanced sound, with more sparkle on the top end. A slightly smoother sound that retains headroom. Originally intended for studio or home use, many musicians claim it to be the closest to the original C10N from 4 and 5 decades ago. Paper voice coil versions are most similar to the originals and impart a woody tone that is flatter when directly compared to our standard coil.
