Marshall Amp Forum - View Single Post - Trying to decide what speaker cab to get...1960A or 1960AV?

Either go with the AV, or plan on switching out 2 of the 75's with V30's or something similar. I originally bought the 1960A's, but ended up changing the speakers out. The 75's just don't have any mid range presence by themselves, from my experience. You do want to make sure what you mix with the 75's have the same impedence of the 75's (16 ohms). Also, the V30 is a more efficient speaker than the G12T75, and will be noticably louder, dominating the 75. Therefore, a 2x2 mix of the two will have more of a V30 character, but less harsh with a touch more bass response and compression from the 75's (I've done this combination).
