Just wondering what 15" speakers others might use in there amps. I know that Kim Wilson, James Harman, Norton Buffalo and other pros have used 15s at different times. Do you have any experience to share? Thanks! All the best!
15" speakers sound great, but tend to feedback much sooner than say 4 x 10. So either mic them up, or like James Harman use 2 amps for gigging. ---------- The Harpist formerly known as Doggycam
"That's because a Pro puts out 34 watts as opposed to 45 watts for a Bassman. It's not that 15s feedback sooner, it's related to the type of circuit."
Not strictly true, I've tried 15" through a Bassman a Vibrolux and a Bandmaster. You get less actual volume before the onset of feedback than with 2x10 or 4x10.
Its to do with speaker area,frequency response and whole other lot of voodoo.
I'm replacing a blown 15" speaker. Anyone have suggestions for make/model for harp. The 15A125 would fit great but I need something that will handle 50 watts. Thanks for all of the comments! Jay
I have a Supro amp that uses a 15" alnico Jensen P15P it sounds excellent. I have used 2x8" speakers 4x8" 2X 10" & 12" & to me the 15" sounds as good as them all. I love 15" speakers I think a lot of people are put off by them but the 15" are misunderstood most people who have used them love them. I guess it depends what type of 15" speaker it is & what amplifier it is in.
