No, but I've used their (discontinued) NeoMag 12s in a 2X12 and am now using a pair of Jensen Tornado neo 10s in a 2X10. I sold the Webers. I'm keeping the Jensens. Neither speaker nails JBL tones for me but I didn't like the Webers and do like the Jensens.

Have them in 06 CVR and 67 blackface VR. Good results.

A followup suggestion - this worked for me when I decided which direction to go.

If you can drive each speaker independently (e.g., in my case, I ran dual mono signals out from my SMS into my Carvin DCM200L's two channels, each channel independently driving one of the two speakers), cop one Weber and one Jensen and A-B them.

You'll have 3 possible outcomes: (1) You like and want to keep both; (2) you like one but not the other - then you sell the one you don't like and buy a second of the one you do; (3) you like neither - then you sell both and look elsewhere, e.g., real JBLs.

In my case, with my original 2X12 cab, I was in category (3) - I wasn't truly satisfied with either, sold them both, copped one K120 and one E120 to replace them, and all is copacetic.

I also, afterwards, copped another cab, this one 2X10, and loaded it with a pair of Jensen neos. I like the 2X10 w/Jensens much more than I'd liked the the Jensen I'd had originally in the 2X12 (though I'm not sure if this is due to the 10" sounding different from the 12" due to its size or because the 1st Jensen neo was a 12-100 and the second two are Tornados).

I'm not going for Jerry tone per se just hang here to grow my knowledge and GD info.

Here is one with the CVR from a few years back.

Thank you for the kind words.

If you are talking about the Dark Star jam I linked above, yes that's the Meyers modded CVR with Weber Neomag 10"s.

These:

Looks like they are on sale.

If you are referring to stuff on the website most of those are CVR but some may be the JBL loaded Deluxe. Not sure, not a very good archivist, I'm afraid. :D
