I'm interested in the result.
I used to run a fullstack live with 1960A + B all with G12T-75's.
I changed the 1960A with a 1960slash with Vintage 30's.
I'm mic'ing the V30's through the PA.
When playing, the V30's are straight in my ear so I obviously hear more of them standing a few feet from the cabs. It's a noticable difference... I almost considered dialing back the mids on the amp at first .. but I just kept playing and now I'm used to it. I love the G12T-75 in the bottom cabs though.. gives me an extra bass thump ...

I'm unsure if rewireing both cabs with the X-pattern is worth the hassle ...
