GREAT UPGRADE FOR ANY GUITAR AMP!! Buy it!!
By WebbMan
The EMINENCE LEGEND 1218 is one of the most Under-rated speakers around. Usually, when someone thinks of Eminence they think of the Swamp Thang, or Texas Heat. However, if you go to [...] they support a great feature that allows you to do direct comparison by playing sound clips for each of their speakers. It definitely took me some time to sort all the speakers but if you're looking for a thick, phat bottom & mid tone that still has clear high's (not too bright, but definitely not muddy) then the LEGEND 1218 is for you.OK, here's the deal - I wanted an all tube combo amp that wouldn't break the bank and all the reviews I read pointed me to the Crate V-50 112. However, the ONE issue about the amp that constantly came up in the user reviews is how the amp tone GREATLY IMPROVES by simply changing the speaker. Don't get me wrong - the Crate V-50 right out of the box sounded nice but when I installed the LEGEND 1218 ($87.00) the sound went from nice to WOW!!! It was as if the all features of this great amp were being held back by the stock 50w speaker. Think about it, an all tube 50 watt amp with a 50 watt max output speaker?? Make sense to you?? Hell NO. There's no head room. The Eminence Legend 1218 is a 8 Ohm, 150 watt output speaker. This gives the amp 100 watts of room to flex its muscle. No Restrictions...Now the Bass is more than enough, the Reverb shines and the phat tube sound overall is comparable to those very pricey hand wired boutique amps. Do yourself a favor go to [...] and check out the LEGEND 1218. I hope I helped steer you in the right direction. As always, THANKS for reading my reviews and be well. The WebbMan.

By JazzPlayer
While this speaker has good versatility for different styles, it's specialty is a big warm clean tone with great note separation. It has deep bass, warm smooth mids, and very responsive to your EQ in treble region. You can dial in strong highs that aren't nasty - or dial back for smooth jazz tone. The cone is pretty controlled which makes this a fine speaker for jazz. If you're playing chord melodies or jazz leads and need to hear each note, you're in for a treat. Very full, rich sound. It has plenty of mids, just not the growling type like a Vintage 30. If you're buying this for that cutting hi-mid crunch, it won't have enough juice for you. However, if distorted rock is more the exception than rule in your playing, then it will do a respectable job with pedals - just don't expect the speaker to "break up" for you. Clean playing is more the rule these days for me, so this speaker is special. The real test is hitting a low E note while playing some chord work over the top. It sounds like two different speakers with the clarity and note separation - amazing!

By Robert D. Jones
Installed this in my custom build cabinet. Clean and dirty tube amps sound great! The tone is warm and the mids come through.
