Might not match up well with dark amps
|

I recently put two of these in a twilighter 260, same as magnatone 260. The stock alnicos were hampering a really fine amp. Was able to hear a test enclosure with several Emminence 12" models. The CRex stood out in the most obvious way. I'd been thinking of mixing one of these with a Red Fang, gave that up quick. The CRex impresses me daily. The smoothest, warmest, just plain best-sounding speaker I've heard in a long time. Some people feel the hempcones are dark, that they muffle tone. This one does not. I do feel it needs to go into the right amp ... wouldn't put it into my already hot, dark sounding old Gibson GA40, but in the Twilighter -- with very effective tone controls, a broad range of usable tone already in the amp -- it's perfect.
Turned a sweet sounding amp with marginal stage volume into a much more capable gigging amp. Significantly louder, more headroom, more of everything. The CRex is a great speaker.
