This speaker is very true to what you put in. No frequencies are hyped across the guitar spectrum but yet it still sounds like a good guitar speaker and not sterile or hi-fi. Has the openness of the American speakers but retains some British smoothness. In my opinion one of the most versatile speakers Celestion makes. High end is crisp and present but not piercing and the low end is full but not loose. Highly recommended!

I am a Marshall DSL 40C owner,even after removing the C19 cap its still has a lot of high end harshness because of the 70/80 celestion stock speaker it came with. After installing the A-type 16 ohm,I now have a much warmer low end omph,relax mids,much fuller over all sound with a sweeter high's and still retains that Marshall sound that I dig alot! I thought about an Eminence but to my experience,Marshall and Celestion go well together for the sound I'm going for and also the SM57 seems to be much more friendlier on picking up those combination on a live gig situation, with very little tweaking done. I mainly use 90% bridge humbucker(Dimarzio PAF Pro) on alder body maple neck. Sound" IS" subjective but I really dig my live results. Highly recommend it,especially for Marshall amps...

I have to say, I'm not a fan of this speaker. It has a very dark sounding profile with a pronounced low-mid. The high frequencies are very subdued and muted. It doesn't do any favors for my Vox AC10 or my Hot Rod deluxe, making everything sound muddy and flubby. It is actually good for heavy, modern sounds though. My Egnator Rebel and DSL20 both sound suitably thick and rich running through it. Be sure you know what you're getting before you buy this one. It is NOT a good choice for low gain clean tones. It is a good speaker for modern high gain sounds.
