Another directivity modifier. Works well but to expensive. One can DIY it I guess.

I have 2 EVM12-L that I bought used.  One's a lot brighter than the other and technically sounds more 'right'.  The difference is quite large, and I wonder if the dark one is damaged, but it seems to have more mojo than the bright one.
Haven't been able to decide which is the clear winner.  They both record well.  I've used the brighter one live a few times and it sounds a bit hard at live volumes.  Sounds better to me at bedroom volume.  I'm going to try the dark one live and try to decide on one or other to use in combination with my G12-65.   (2 EVM's is too much for an old guy to schlepp.)
The G12-65 is light weight, plus it has a more organic sound than the EV's. I like it a lot.
The only reason I decided to try the EV's was to get more headroom.

Btw Has everyone here heard of the doughnut-shaped beam blockers?

Yes indeed. I have them installed in 2 cabs and 2 combos. Cheap enough to 'suck it and see'. Just make sure if usingthe spray contact adhesive to let is dry a bit before attaching to the grille, that way if you wan to remove it it won't leave lots of foam bits sticking to the back of the grille.

i have used these with great success:

Very interesting Mr. Fabulous, but if you read carefully Jay Mitchell’s explanation of speaker directivity you will realise that Weber and Tayden type beam blockers don’t work.  Cry
The effect you hear with your “beam blockers” really is a comb filtering (Hi frequency phase cancellation) which is bad for pure guitar tone.
But on the other hand – if you like it….. Wink
