Picked up a Fane F70.

Haven't been around in a while, but I just got this speaker, and it works great with the Express. The sound is really rich. I think it's my new favorite for this amp.

Same old backing, but the tone is good. I'm using a Silent Sister Cab with a Rockcrusher Attenuator set on -12db.

*Edit*

I dialed back the gain and dialed in more amp EQ. I'm liking the sound I'm getting.

Nice and edgy/chimey.

I'm interested in this speaker but am unsure if it mixes well with a celestion in a 2x12 Bogner OS

I did a speaker compare with a different amp if you were interested.

Nice! Thought I was at a Judas Priest concert. Fane is a more open/less compressed sounding to me. I like it, but I like all three as well. What amp did you use for the comparison?

[leadfootdriver]

That's a Fryette Sig:X on the high gain Red Channel. Here's the same amp on the mid gain Yellow Channel that's more dialed in.

nice clips. the f70 sounds great but my ears are very much used to the celestion g12H and g12m

Is it fair to say it sounds like a Celestion Vintage 30?

They are similar. Buy I think the Celestion is more pointy, whereas the Fane's upper midrange is more spread out.

That's good to know, btw is that from listening to the clips or personal experience?

I have had an early V30 but it sounded rubbish with my Rivera Fender Concert. I think a Kendrick Black Frame would have been the ticket as they have a good bass response or perhaps the EV speaker that was optional.
