In the old days . . each amp and cab has it's own merit . . .now we live with thousands of choices and yet . . . most guitar tone on many many modern metal artists are the same.

I don’t think MojoTone has anything to do with the Warehouse (WGS) speakers do they? @MojoTone should send Kyle some British V30s though so we can hear that comparison too. I think they similarly take off a little of the top end shrill that Celestion Vintage 30s have.

It's crazy when you realize how much difference the speaker makes, and how little most guitar players even think about them.

@@Professional.Bro.777 Same. If you have a high gain amp, it's pretty much going to sound close to another high gain amp if you use the same speakers. There ARE exceptions to that, but the speaker is the MAIN component of sound, and is the biggest influence on the sound you get!

Glad more people are catching on about G12M Greenbacks for metal. They are NOT just for classic/hard rock like so many people seem to think. For me they have the perfect balance of upfront and balanced mids, with minimal high end sizzle like you find in most V30's, and still with respectable low end. Perfect for modern metal tones.

@amirtak9886

@maynardburger yeah I used to think v30s were the best speaker ever made until I heard some of the older and newer G12M speakers on KZread and I like how much tighter and focused they sound compared to the vintage 30. My favorite G12M type speaker is the Eminence Private Jack 8ohm. It's 50w and it sounds so perfectly balanced and nails the G12M character. Also Celestion is recently making the G12M speakers in the UK now.

The ENGL was the best to my ears. Full, growly, heavy. The Marshall with K100s was great too, a little bit more raw.

ENGL indeed. I say the Mesa MC90 and VHT are a close second.

That's why it's important to find speakers that work for you. Once I found Redbacks, it's become my primary and go to speaker for everything. Love them!!!

KSR Creamback, KSR Redback, G12M Greenback, P50E all sounded absolutely killer. G12H was pretty good too.

Thank you for using powerchords! It’s crazy how rare that is for demo videos. I’m a rhythm player. I need to know how it sounds when it chugs!

your engl v30 cab sounds insane. it'as always impressive to hear how big the differences are even between different v30s. the g12h30 marshall was my fav of the bunch

I really like how you give us the non post processed “how it’s gonna sound in your house” demo.

Hell yes! Been waiting for you to do some speaker shootouts. Hopefully you’ll make this a series with different amp heads!

I would be happy with any of them. Pretty awesome video man. I appreciate the effort that went into this

The Marshall with K100 and later the Marshall with Greenbacks and then the old cab with G1275s were my top 3 here. They mostly all would work though. The immediate difference is crazy… but once you get halfway into it, you realize they’re all usable.

I use a DV-77 in a 1x12 closed back prs cab and love it. I also use an eminence swamp thing in a fender super sonic combo as a clean AF pedal platform and it also handles the low end amazing and takes the high end of the fender amp. Love this kind of video! Thanks for the info!

Great playing and tones sir!

Kyle, you are doing such an amazing job and your channel is growing due to that. You're a great guy who seems humble, honest, and kind. I hope your channel continues to grow. Guys like you deserve a lot of success. Keep up the amazing work. I look forward to your every video.

Excellent video. I love speaker/cab comparisons.

That Creamback 75 has an awesome tone!

The Eminence custom legends sounded great to me. Also liked the Redbacks, Creamback 75, and the Vet 30.

The omega and the ksr creamback 75 had loads of percussion and punch…this is a really helpful video thanks Kyle.

Long time Greenback lover. Personal favorite is the Eminence Private Jack take on that particular speaker. Thanks for turning on the gas for a bunch of us.

Great work, KB! 🤘

That 8 Eminence P50E in the VHT 2x12 surprised me. I confirmed that I typically like 16ohm speakers better. The V30 is still one of my favorites. Also the DV-77 and a Creamback H. You also can’t go wrong with a Celestion Anniversary or a Greenback.

Heads up man! The second channel link in the description seems broken! Great video man!

Thank you for including the EV12L!

I paired an Eminence DV-77 with a Celestion Neo Creamback, I love it. Keep up the good work 👏

Amazing vid!!! I think the amp pairs best with the Engl cab and the Omega 8. Really punchy and not too harsh on the high end.

It was really cool hearing the ET-66 for metal. That’s the one genre I hadn’t heard them handle yet, and it’s the only one I wanted lol Thanks for doing the lords work as always Kyle! I think the Randall, greenbacks and the last eminence were my favorites.

Eminence p50e sounds great! Thanks for the great demo!

The Randall CRUSHED all of them!!!

Great video. I'd have to choose the Eminence C90, the Veteran 30, H75 or one of the Greenback loaded Marshalls. The rest had some sort of weird resonant overtone/hollowness/brittle buzzy thing going on. I wonder if differences in power handling played a role in this? What was the master on your amp? Thanks for the hard work. Moving those cabs around is no joke.

T75's was the sound of 90's thrash for a while. It's got its own thing going on. It really brings out the low end on the palm mutes.

@alrecks619

it's a scooped sound which is why the low end is there yet it still cuts through.

Great work Kyle awesome video to my ears the winner is Dv 77 and g12 K100

I liked the black shadow and creamback 75 the most. AWESOME VIDEO

I produce/engineer/mix/master full time at my recording studio. People will come in with $2500 heads and $500 cabinets complaining about their tone. I plug them into any of my better cabinets (selected, of course, to compliment the head and the tone they're going for) and it sounds 1000 times better. Instantly. Now, pick the right speaker in the right cab to go along with the right character coming out of the amp head and you've gone from "this is shit" to "oh shit this rips." The thing that tends to bum them out, though, is when I pull out my Egnator Rebel 20 - a head a got for $150 used - and put it through the right cab (it loves my Mesa 2x12 from 2001) and it sounds better than their Revv (for example) through the cab they walked in with. That head's awesome and it's my secret "vocal mids" amp that always sounds cool. I think it's a painful lesson a lot of us guitar folk learn: amps are cool, fun to experiment with, and have a definite hand in shaping the character of the tone but cabs are where 90% of the tone is designed and defined. Amps are the fresh lookin' shoes while cabinets are the shirt, pants, hat, haircut, and body shape of the person wearing the shoes.

6:12 didn't expect it but the Marshall with K100 speakers is my favorite, sounds huge.

Yesssss!!! Thank you for this

Eminence DV77 is really good, and greatly suprised by the black shadow too

I know it probably dumb to everyone but i find the fact you use your font from your logo in the speaker description really sick as branding goes, i really appreciate this and yes i run an advertising agency so im a nerd lol.

The G12H is a really underrated speaker. Its been my favorite for years, and sounds great in this video. Also, a Greenback in a Marshall cab always sounds great. The Engl cab was pretty killer too

@yomuthabyotch

love mine. i actually owe it to mr. bull; his G12H30 70th anniv vs WGS reaper showdown vid was what motivated me to get one. although i think it sounds better for rock than metal.

Im glad to see you showcasing how much speakers make a difference in sound. Glen from smg studios has been saying this for a while.

I really dug that Marshall with the G12 H30 speakers and the KSR with the Redbacks.. of course I’m listening through an iPad speaker so there’s that. And you can never really tell unless the cab is in the room pushing air

man, your sense of humor is sooooo healing that you have no idea, great vid

This mostly confirms what i thought. The WGS Retro 30 sits in between the 16ohm V30 and DV-77 here. I liked the CB-H and last Black Shadow too and Redback wasn't bad.

Thanks for putting the black shadows on their was thinking of getting 2

G12H30 has been my favorite since I've owned an EVH 212. I cycled a lot of speakers through it and eventually came back to the pair of G12H's. Big low end and cutting mids.

People like to crap on those speakers in that cab by saying it's too trebly or spiky or whatever. I think it just takes a while for those speakers to break in but once they do, that cab sounds glorious.

I use my MT 100 with DV-77 speakers on my 2x12 Orange OB Cabinet and the Warehouse REAPER HP & Vintage 30 speakers on my 4x12 Cabinet.

Hey Kyle, love this vid. Something I noticed is that many of these cabs seem like they push more or less volume. I'm not looking at a VU meter or anything, but some seem quite a bit louder. You've been in the studio a fair amount so I'm sure you're aware of the problems regarding A/Bing and volume. An increase in volume, whether actual or perceived, usually sounds better. I have plugins in Reaper that will automatically level match different tracks. Maybe you could implement something like that on these tests. I'm betting there is a way to do it that's pretty drag and drop and wouldn't really mess with your workflow. That way all the tracks are level matched and you aren't introducing any non-linearities by using something like a limiter. Just a thought. Dig the second channel, keep up the good work.

Great video! it´s really curious , i find the best combination V30+ EVM12L ( comparing all i have tested ) and barely anyone uses that combination and its extremely tight, clear and thick....I recommend you to try that speakers!

Marshall 1960a sounded nicest to my ear, followed by the randall and the H75 creamback KSR. Others would forsure find there place in certain mixes. But raw tones, those took it for me.

damn that P50E in the VHT cab sounded sick, ill have to check those out at some point

Freaking love your channel bro

That basket weave Marshall with Greenbacks sounded super !

Damn this must have been a mission hope your backs ok:) Randall and mode 4 cab are the best to my ears. Seems not many people use k100s they rock lucky i have the same cab

Engl V30, KSR redbacks, 25W greenbacks sounded incredible. There was only a couple of speakers in the entire batch I didn't really like. Most of them sounded really good, just different flavors.

Wished there was a beloved orange v30 cab in the mix but incredible job with this shootout. Alot of those sounded so cool. I'm most interested in those DV-77's

It would be cool to hear different speaker combinations, like a V30 with an Eminence Legend, mic both cabs with an sm57 with the same head. Also, it would be very helpful to hear this on a mix context, maybe make a track with drums and bass, record left and right guitars. Btw we acknowledge and appreciate the labor of love in this video!

I love this kind of content.

If you played this to someone without context and blindfolded, they would be thinking its different amps, thats just how big of a difference different speakers and cabs can make, its crazy. Awesome video Kyle, would love to see this being a series of testing one amp with all these different cabs! Best for what I would enjoy personally: ENGL V30 8ohm, Mesa V30 8ohm, Marshall G12M25 Greenback 16ohm and Mesa Black Shadow MC-90 8ohm and

Celestion V30 and K100 is the best combo for metal I’ve ever heard. They compliment each other perfectly, I’ll never run anything else.

The Mesa Black Shadow vintage sounded awesome 😃

G12H30 and K100s are my favourite. The Engl V30 and the ET65 sound great too.

I liked the 16ohm V30, redback, Veteran, both creambacks. G12H30 has nice EQ but also a sort of fuzzy decay that I wish wasn’t there.

I use K100s and have done for years - love em! Instant slayer.

Lotta love for the P50e, but my guy you need to try a Fane F70. Such a killer speaker. Steve Fryette knows whats up.

If you stop to think about it, every one of us is hearing each of these speakers differently. So it's not only that each speaker is different, but we all hear things differently due to various factors. Just think about the different types/degrees of hearing damage that we probably each suffer from, to one degree or another. After over three decades of industrial work and a lifetime of loud music, I know I have hearing damage. Different frequencies have become attenuated. It's mind-blowing and one of the main reasons that we each prefer different tones.

Great job! Did you turn off the amp between cabs or just standby? Just wondering...

I really liked the Engl and the Greenback Marshall

great comparison 👍all time m25 greenback fan here. İt is great in marshall cabs but fantastic in an Engl cab. İ swaped all v30s to m25s in my 2x12 and 4x12 engls.. eminence legend 1218 is also a hidden gem i think. İt is great alone and in combination with tonker.

insane of collection.. how big is the cabinet storage? :)

Loved the sound of the Vader with Legends.

I've never tried a Creamback 75. Now I want to get one.

that vht 212 last one absolutely killed all of them... it was the most upfront fullest and far from buzzy, scratchy sounding. still it was not dark or super boomy in the lowend. what a cab!

so for the PRS 2x12 archon 140w.. is it good for MT100 ?..btw.. awesome videos..

I'd haver to go with that engl!

How do those Anniversaries sound in the room? They sound really good in nearly all the high gain demo’s I’ve seen but I also heard they have quite a bit of harsh frequencies. So yea, what’s your experience with them?

The Mode 4 K100 cab did the thing for me

I dug the Randall V30s and the KSR creambacks.

It makes sense.

Nice to see the Celestion 12H 30watt speakers in there!

I got a v30 and dv77 in a 2x12 with evh 6l6 50 watt and it is brutal . Can't wait to get me a mesa recto 4x12 .

I think the 16 ohm setups sounded best of all. The Splawn Creamback 65 and the Marshall G12C & the G12M did it for me.

my favorite are jensen speakers, they have a dip in the mids that makes most tube amps sound excellent

12L sounds like an AM radio next to all of those other speakers haha.

Sounded best and most massive with that ENGL cab. Wow! its like adding a depth control to the MT100

Engl makes the best sounding stuff. Every demo I hear, it's always great.

The G12H30 was my definitely my personal favorite. Smooth highs, powerful mids. Since this amp is already has a somewhat scooped tone it's pretty logical that a very mid-forward speaker plays well with it, and that somewhat mid-scooped speakers doesn't (like the T75). However, the G12C Greenback (should be mid-forward) didn't sound very good IMO, while the K100 (usually a bit scooped) did, so that logic might not work after all 😅

I really like the 16 ohm Ceamback, the Redback, and the modern Black Shadow the best!

we need a video of the revv generator through all the cabs!

The Randall Xl cab sounded killer I thought, aggressive tight and a little open

I had been falling out of love with my 5150 mk3 50w combo, until i replaced the eminence governor with the OG EVH speaker it came with, sounds so much better now, the eminence is slightly damaged with the center cone pushed in leaving it "dented" wondering how much that effected the tone becuz i loved the eminence gov thru the 50w 5150 head

Mesa 4x12 V30 for the win. I love it!

I have a 1972 Greenback cab and it's the best sounding cab there is. The Creambacks are very close.
