Title: Scholz speaker for Ceriatone OTS Post by: Luithien on April 25, 2008, 09:37:29 PM All,
I have read a few good things about the Scholz Sugarcone speaker when used with D-clone style amps. Anyone have some input on these?

http://www.thegearpage.net/board/showthread.php?t=190607&page=13 (http://www.thegearpage.net/board/showthread.php?t=190607&page=13) I know it is a long thread (13 pages) but it contains a very descriptive look at the Scholz speaker compared to two of the most popular choices for the OTS and other D-style amps. Really amazing how the performance of the Sholz improves as it breaks in, and other posters findings support the OP. Worth the time it takes to read if you want the best from your OTS. I know I will be ordering one.

Q- "Just curious because I have a BuzzBomb (EarCandy cab-jt) with Swamp Thangs, but do you think the Scholz speakers are worth the $225 Tim charges a piece for the styles of music you play?" A- "Haven't heard the Swamp Thangs, but compared to my British-made G12H-30s, the Sugarcones are a better fit for my Fuchs TDS. They're very balanced, smooth and musical. Make my .009s sound like .010s or .011s on the high strings, but keep the low end tight and well-defined. The G12H-30s are nice for crunchy chord stuff, but a bit too scooped and thin for the high single-note stuff. They also break up earlier and always have a little grittiness. It's a great sound for certain things, but not what I'm going for with the Fuchs. As for the Scholz's being worth $225, it's a tough call. For my tastes, I'd have to line them up with the Heritage G12-65, EVM-12L Reissue and Eminence RWB to tell for sure. Other folks who've done just that with Dumble-style amps have chosen the Scholz as the winner." - rig-dog JT |
