These are the type of cabs John used along with the rack from the same period. They are half back angled cabinets which means that the bottom two speakers are sealed off by a panel but the top two are open/accessible and also that the top half of the cabinet is angled back the way. This is all to do with the type of sound produced and in what direction etc. In fact, this is actually one of John's old cabs.
izzy says he prefers the EV speakers on the bottom. It gets a real thick, warm sound. My preference is EVs on the bottom and Celestions on top

"I used 3 different amps for the Odyssey - ENGL fireball, Line 6 Vetta head, and Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier. The rhythm tracks were mostly the ENGL and the Line 6 Vetta ( for different amp tones, clean, etc. ) and the Boogie and Vetta for the solos. The cabinets were Mesa/Boogie half backs ( 4x12 ). For mic choice and placement, I like to experiment a bit...but usually a Shure SM57 and a Sennheisser 421 - up close to the speaker ( the 57 a bit off axis OR off-center of the cone ) and sometimes an AKG 414 back a few feet for some ambience and space. Then into the Neve 9098s ( preamp & EQ ) and EQ a little to clean up the bottom end and get it sounding tight - I'll double track all the rhythms." Michael Romeo
