Hello everyone,

I'm going to get my Orange OR-120 in the next couple of days and I'm not quite sure yet which speakers to mount on the PPC212 Orange cabinet (which is unloaded right now).

I'm looking for a sound similar to the sound in this video:

A really chewy tone with still clear articulation in the upper mids. Some might call it desert rock or stoner...I don't know if that's the right way to describe it...

The guy on youtube used the stock setup with two V30. As I'm a huge WGS fan since I was using an Invader50 paired with an Eminence Governor in a DIY built 2x12 cabinet I thought about getting WGS again.

Due to the Orange's high wattage the Invador, Reaper & Green Beret are dropping out in a 2x12 setup.

Since the OR-120 has a tendency to sound a bit darker (some might say muddy?) it might be fortunate to substitute the Celestion V30s by Veteran 30s or Retro 30s. What do you think?

I'm playing a Hagstrom Viking with Seymour Duncan Phat Cats, a stock 50's Reissue MIM Tele and a Schecter Tempest Custom.

As I am from Germany my possibilities to try out speakers are limited. Our local WGS dealer (and there is only one) is not really keen on sending speakers back that were already mounted...

Thank you very much for your help and your opinion on this!

Regards,

Robin

Hi Robin, I'm going to say Retro 30's ... but I'm going to ask Daniel to chime in here ... he's the WGS Orange guy!
