Hi,
tl;dr- can i replace the stock Celestion G12 Neo Creamback speakers with a Beyma Liberty 12 and get the break up I want at lower power settings?
I had a friend offer me their reissue twin for $500, but I decided to spend double that to get the twin reverb tonemaster. While shopping around, I put them side by side and could not tell the difference. I can set the built in attenuator to 1w and play in my living room while the baby sleeps in the back. I rarely take it above 5 or 12 watt setting when playing with friends. I built an alligator partscaster with the help of this forum and I've had a ton of fun, but I think the last mile for me is the speaker. The tonemaster has a Celestion G12 Neo Creamback speakers which at 1 watt/ volume at 10 sounds killer, but I'm looking for that 1972 spank from what I gather is due to the 4 inch voice coil being pushed by 85 watts.
Are there any gearheads knowledgable enough to tell me if the lower power settings will drive the speaker enough to get the 1972 sound?
