The WGS Blackhawk vs Black & Blue (Paper vs Kapton)

Hi Yawl!

This blog is one that has been heavily requested, and it’s one I’ve been just itchin’ to do myself.  In my earlier blog: Paper or Plastic? The Great Kapton vs. Plastic Former Question!, I used up all kinds of words describing the subtitle sonic differences between a speaker with a voice-coil wound around paper as compared to one wound around Kapton.  This week I put my guitar where my mouth is!

For those of you who don’t want to watch the video, here is the skinny:

***Spoiler Alert***

The paper sounds just a little brighter than the Kapton.  There ya go :-)\

Roll the Video!

See ya all next week!

Hi Vaughn:

Both speakers sound great with the Deluxe! I would be hard pressed to pick a winner. I was just wondering how the fit was in the Deluxe? I know that sometimes certain Alnico speakers need to have the bell covers taken off to fit properly. Is this the case with either of these, or was there enough clearance?

Thanks,
- John.

No problem at all on the fit with the Bell Covers on!  Not exactly roomy ... but not scarely tight either!
