Are Celestion 70 80's good speakers?

Hi. I am a newbie here anyway, though have been a builder and busy body a long time on other boards.
I have a speaker cabinet, a Blackheart, that has two Celestion 70 80's in it and I don't really know what they are good for. They don't seem to be even midpriced and I have to wonder if I might want to use that cabinet with some better speakers?
Just wondering. What speakers would you compare the sound to?
Thank you

The Seventy 80 is one of Celestion's most popular speakers. It is an adaptation of the Classic Lead, offering a pleasing lift in the upper frequency spectrum, solid bass, and plenty of midrange. 80W power rating.
I just looked this up,not very much but sounds like a nice speaker for a 2x12 cab,Welcome aboard buddy!!!Mikey
