Description

Edit description

Classic Vox Tone with ceramic punch. 12″, 40oz Ceramic magnet, 1-3/4″ voice coil, ribbed cone.

Detailed high end that doesn’t get hard or harsh at high volumes, aggressive, big low end, more headroom than the AlNiCo version.

As with all Weber speakers, the higher the power rating, the warmer and smoother the speaker. The 15 watt is aggressive, bright, with a strong midrange crang. At the other end, the 100 watt is warm, smooth, yet is detailed and clear with very good definition. The 75 and 100 watt models use very high temperature voice coils that are the same weight and mass as the lower power voice coils. That assures good attack and a broad frequency response due to the low weight and mass of the voice coil assembly.

Also available with Weber’s Hemp cone, which is a smoother, darker tone, with less attack (great for taming treble).

Best speakers for the Vox AC100 CPH.

I replaced the Wharfedale speakers in my Vox V412BN with these speakers and my Vox AC100 CPH came to life. The AC100 CPH sounded terrible with the Wharfedale speakers, it sounded dull, buzzy and hissy.

Before buying these speakers I tried my amp through my bandmates Marshall 4x12" loaded with G12M Heritage Greenbacks. Although it sounded good but the unique qualities of a Vox amp were gone with the Greenback. The overdrive channel sounded great but the cleans were a bit lacking for my tastes.

Then I tried them through a Mesa/Boogie Traditional 4x12" loaded with the made in U.K. Vintage 30 speakers. With the Vintage 30 the mid-range response was okay but the the complex upper mids, and the chime that you expect from a Vox amp were completely missing. Instead of having a detailed and complex chime the Vintage 30 made the cleans smeared in the high end. In overdrive channel the Vintage 30 made the upper-mids sound congested and smeared. So I contacted Weber Speakers and they recommended the 50 watt Ceramic Blue Dog speakers for my amp.

With these speakers my amp sounds absolutely beautiful. In the clean channel it produces the nice signature Vox chime that is rich in complex harmonics in the presence and high end spectrum. In overdrive channel not only the speaker has a nice low end response, and detailed mid-range, but it also has detailed and complex upper mids like an Alnico Blue speaker. However, unlike an Alnico Blue these speakers handle high gain with aplomb, and have a faster low end response.

With these speakers my AC100 CPH sounds exactly like what it was built to sound like, it sounds like a hot-rodded Vox amp. If only Vox would have put something like this speaker in the VOX V412BN the AC100 CPH wouldn't have been such a failure.
