Title: 15" Speaker in 5F4 Super Combo?
Post by: AdrianJ on May 06, 2008, 10:49:07 AM
Any thoughts on how a 15" speaker would go with the 5F4?

Isn't that what the Pro is? Or the Bandmaster? I think the main difference between the three amps is speaker configuration but I don't know for sure...

Can anyone else enlighten us?

I believe there are only minor circuit differences between the 5F4 (super), the 5E5 (Pro) and the 5E7 (Bandmaster).The main diff in the tweed originals is the speakers they were paired with - 2x10" for the super; 1x15" for the pro and 3x10" for the bandmaster.  Weber alnicos would be the most authentic for a tweed repro.  I have a 15" weber alnico I run with my 5E3 and I love it.

Emailed Nik and he advised that unless I have access to a 15" speaker to try and to be sure that I like it, then maybe I should consider a combo that I'm  familiar with.

How would you compare the response of a 1x15" to a 2x12" as that's the other combination I'd consider going for...
