I have a selection of Peavey Eminence speakers left. Mostly 10s and 15s from Peavey combos.

Ash - do you have a BW 1502-4?

No. That's a Peavey, not a Peavey/Eminence.

how about a 12" blue marvel?

Vorbis (is that from ogg-vorbis?), I imported an Eminence Red Fang from JMI Music in the States. Took about 2 weeks and freight was $60 USD. I would recommend them as a speaker for most applications excerpt where massive headroom is required.

By the way, the new Eminence speakers blow Celestion (excepot the blue) away...just my opinion, but I A/B'd a Seventy/80, Celestion Alnico Blue, Celestion Vintage 30, anbd a pile of Webers that I have and the Eminence was a close second to the Celestion Blues. When it came to Celestions, I thought the Seventy/80 sounded much better than the Vintage 30.

Of course the disclaimer of "your mileage my vary" (YMMV for those that seen it but not known it...like me until 2 weeks ago)applies.

What a fantastic little escape clause YMMV is. I didn't have a clue what it was either. Best used at the end of a rant that is bound to aggravate many.

<Vorbis> was the only sound related nick I could think of at the time:)
What was the cost of the red fang?

Post by **GrantB** » Tue Jan 17, 2006 12:15 pm

$127 USD for the Red Fang. It's 30 watts.

The others in that Patriot and Red Coat ranges (one red, one blue...get it?) are mostly cheaper, arounbd the $90USD mark. Celestions are also available from Jim, and he'll do a deal. I paid $260USD for each of the Celestion Blues I imported. He'll do Greenbacks.
