Grateful Dead Music Forum

I've searched around and can not find anything. I was wondering if anybody here has some clips of these speakers or links to where these speakers are being used for Jerry tone? Thanks

Guitar -> SMS -> Neo Mags
Guitar has some fret buzz ; needs further adjustment
SMS has less than 20hrs on it - and Im still dialing it in , too....
Guitar has Super 2's ....
I'm just about to wire a 1 x 12 cab w/ Commonwealth speaker
The neo's are bright as hell- some love it ; some dont.

Thanks so much brother! That was just what i was looking for. Great playing! I'm running K-120's now and I love them but I feel like the D-120's will be better suited for my rig at the moment. I was having some trouble finding people using them in a Dead type format.

I bought a Weber Neo Mag and thought it was extremely bright compared to my JBLs. Not really equivalent. I haven't tried an Eminence Commonwealth though.

However, that clip from Tenn. Jedi with the Webers sounds just fine however he's running them.

This clip is quite useful as he compares a D120F with a Weber Neo Mag & a Weber Michigan.
No GD licks, but he is playing a clean Strat.

It's really hard to compare the difference between speakers unless you're the one playing them. I got lost with that comparison. Hard to tell the difference between the D120 and the Neo Mag.

No prob man - sooner or later I will be a JBL guy too

Yeah I think the honeymoon with my Neo's is over ....
Gonna check out the Commonwealths and see if they float my boat.

I've got a pair of Commonwealth's in my Bag End cab and I love them. Nothing really to compare them with but they're doing the job for me.

T.Jedi-

Are you using just 1x12" Neo Mag in that clip? For years I would run just 1x12" JBL but I switched back to 2x12" and the fullness it brought back was incredible. I can't see going back to 1x12" now unless I'm just playing at home in my garage.

I hope you love them - you and J.B. are the reason I am trying them out !

Rut Roh !
The clip is a 2 x 12 but I am hoping I can run a 1 x 12 at a gig ..... mic it up .....
I was wondering about going to a 1 x 12 and how it will affect my sound ....
I got 2 Commonwealths though ... just in case .....
What is it you dont like about a 1 x 12 ? Lack of headroom ?

I liked it fine for years! It's just that 2x12's are more full sounding. You can totally use a 1x12 for a small gig.

I need a certain amount of volume to feel comfortable so this will be a good experiment for me ...
Gotta keep the band mates happy too.
"Turn that shit down !"

I like the michigans fwiw

just ordered a 10" weber neo for my vibrolux reverb.
