Four 25W Celestion Greenbacks make this cabinet a joy to play through. Warm, articulate with a bit of earlier break-up. Coupled with a Marshall SLP100, it is one of the best sounds ever to a musician's ears. I've used it with amps from 1W to 100W and it just shines in all applications. Mine is 18 years old and it just gets better with age.
