For crying out loud, my valve junior with the two 12s is deeper than the cruncher clip with my new jt30 roadhouse mic and a couple of simple, reversible mods inside the shell. I'm no Nic clark either.<br /><br />http://www.toofiles.com/en/oip/audios/mp3/jt30valvejuniormic.htmlRon Arnoldnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1501574484591494853.post-76580895930980886192010-07-31T14:45:03.239-07:002010-07-31T14:45:03.239-07:00Nic really sounds great and so does the amp.

I am currently using two 12 inch jensens with only 94db sensitivity making it around a 97db pair. Some live sound guys will maintain a 6 db increase when paired...i will stick with the conservative 3db and be glad if it's more. When you are running a valve junior like I am, two 102 db 12s with a combined 105db would make a noticable difference on stage at jam night and 108 db would double the volume of my rig if the cabinet DID give me the 6db increase. I'd probably still need to be mic'd the way these guitar guys are around here, but if I had the money I'd be upgrading speakers.Ron Arnoldnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1501574484591494853.post-23830056204303146792010-07-30T09:33:08.356-07:002010-07-30T09:33:08.356-07:00Johnny- LOL!
