The Eminence Mick Thomson SLIPKNOT DV-77 speaker is here! 

Sounds like V30 without that nasty fizz in the top end. DV-77 all the way.

Kristian: "You should grab 1 or 2 beers" Me: (drank three beers already) Well if you say so.

Eminence knocked it out of the damn park with this speaker.

this is how I imagine a modern speaker to sound in 2020, its pretty fking amazing to say at least, game changer for sure

Dude!! Amazing video!! Dare I say 'BROOTAL'? You Rock Kristian!

What Mick Thomson ‘creates’,is going to be industrial standard...🤘

I love how it has grind, aggression and character while staying tight and focused! Thanks for presenting it

Oooohhh.... I wanna hear a Mesa Mark series through that speaker.

DV-77 makes the guitar tone sound bigger than life. They did a great job for creating speaker that rivals the standard, especially in metal. Btw, awesome job of demonstrating both speakers. The tones were Uber metal \m/

the DV 77 sounds so mean, i love it!

That DV77 sounds great. Now let the Jensen Tornado join this two for a competition. Btw, I love this Brunetti amp, its great.

Wow! Eminence nailed a killer metal tone with this one. Always been a fan of Eminence.

That DV77 sounds fuller. I can tell a difference between the two even on a cell phone speaker.

Man this is quickly becoming my favorite channel.

Luckily I was drinking 2 beers when I clicked on this video. Love your channel Kristian!

It might sound silly but i don't think I've heard of many artist signature speakers 🤔 i really like it

As a Hard Rock player, I'm always chasing a balance between fullness and clarity in speakers. Especially since I build my own custom speaker cabinets. Speakers like the V30 tend to thin out when you back the gain down to a hard rock type of sound, and that high end "fizz" becomes more prominent. But using a speaker like a Texas Heat for example fixes that problem, but IMO it lacks that 'in your face' clarity and presence. So I've been either pairing V30s in a 2x12 with somerhing like a Texas Heat or a Cannibus Rex, or if using a V30 alone I've had to EQ the crap out of it with something like an Mxr 10-band EQ pedal in my effects loop to cut the fizz and harshness and bring in more low end. This new DV-77 sounds like it solves ALL of my issues!! I can't wait to get one. I am building a custom 1x12 at this very moment that I'm going to put a DV-77 in as soon as they are released!! 🤘

That Swamp /77 Sound is killer! Definitely getting some of these from Eminence. Thanks for bringing this to the table. Once again Award winning programming. Prost!

Wow, not only is it fantastic sounding, it may be my favourite guitar tones from you

Purchased it last night! Added them to my Helix. Using the Angry preset in two of my main presets (5150 and VH4). Sound incredible! Can't wait for band practice tonight! I've been waiting to a get a pair for a 2x12.

Damn, the DV77 with a single 57 sounds a bit like a v30 miced with 2x57 with fredman technique. Amazing and especially great for live (where you almost always only have one mic per cab....)

Just picked up the IR pack, thank you! I think I need one of these real speakers in my life.

I was literally looking through my IR catalogue earlier today and gound this video. That DV77 is pretty much exactly the tone I have been after. Grabbing your IRs ASAP. Thanks for your hard work with this pack Kristian and the awesome 'in a mix' examples. Love the V30, but I have been wanting alternatives (and looking for a decent Lynchback IR). These are a good answer to my search.

I must say that DV-77 is impressive sounds full and aggressive at the same time with alot of definition !! and im v30 fan here .... i will definitely buy one of these soon as i can and blend them with my v30 ..... maybe X shape v30 and dv-77 .

I bought them immediately and converted the IR's, put them in the Kemper and used the Driftwood German brutality Purple Nightmare amp profiles made by Zach@ titan studios(whitechapel) and bro! They are ridiculously awesome with my 7 string MKIII keith merrow schecter. I used the perfect blend, the CV-75 bite, the grind swamp thang and the rattlesnake kiss ir's. Guys! Seriously......they destroy anything Ownhammer, bogren digital and other IRs ive heard. Wow, Khole killed it! No shit guys

Mick Thomson really knows his shit ! In many interviews you can see how he knows every detail about his picks, guitars, amps, speaker/cabs etc.. I bought your IR pack immediately, thanks for creating these IR's !

Great Speaker. I feel like an angled 4x12 with two DV-77 diagonal , one V30 in the top and one Swamp Thang in the bottom would make an absolutely crushing sounding cabinet when standing in front of it.

This video was the reason i purchased the DV-77 I ordered it in March and I got it last week. Well worth the wait. I put it in my Peavey 6505+ combo amp. I was using your IR pack with the DV-77 while i waited for the real speaker. Thanks for the great videos.

At this point I would like to say that Mick Thomson is a hugely underrated guitarist in the world of metal. When I got into metal, he was my first guitar hero. Nowadays when I watch some interviews with him talking about guitars or amps, he always seems very knowledgeable and wise. The way he explains his new signature Jackson and also how he explains his live-rig gives me the impression that he is very analytical concerning his tone. He surely knows that he wants in gear and always makes sure that the stuff where he puts his name on is like 99.9% perfect.

Aaaahhhh, finally someone got rid of this fucked up hollow harsh scratching in the highs the original V30 has. It's like putting a notch filter on the Eq, soooo much more pleasant!!!

Two years later and the V30 is still king of the hill

LOL that smile when you say "sell your soul to the devil, i'll take care of it" 3:41

Man... My buddy put a couple of DV-77's in his Marshall 1960BX Cabinet with two U.K. Celestion Greenbacks that already came in it. I never thought my 2015 Soldano SLO-100 could sound better. These speakers made it even more crushing and clear. I couldn't believe it. I've got to get some of these DV-77's. Tremendous speaker. Loving the video.

You rule Kristian.........AMAZING AGAIN

"You should grab 1 or 2 beers..." Me: *pauses video*

V30's have a fizz about em, for sure. Why I got away from them and use G12K100's or G1280's.

It makes the V30 sound like shit.

One or two beers in the span of a half hour. And a metal speaker review. Fuck yes.

I just grabbed your Eminence IR pack. I wanted to thank you so very much!! I was looking for something that is pretty much plug-n-play (was getting sick of the old v30 with 69420 mic positions, most of them unusable anyway) and you knocked it out of the fucking park! It really shows that it was made with german love

I think I've seen all of your speaker vids, and this is the first time I've liked something more than the V30

Not sure if you know this but the vintage 30's in all the Mesa cabs are all different from one another and vastly different than the Chinese ones you can buy off the shelf. The Mesa V30's are all made in the UK and are hand (ear) selected for use for each specific Mesa cab. Like the oversized recto gets different ones selected as opposed to what would be selected for a Stiletto cab or a 2x12.

Dude, I just bought the Eminence Kohle Metal IR Pack and it's awesome. Man I've been hesitant to do this for a while, but I decided to use my Mesa OS as a test cab for some experimental combinations and bought some DV-77s immediately so I can mix and match V30s witth my DV-77s and then I want to try the Swamp Thangs with the Hesu Demons. I don't think the DV-77 will be replacing the V30, but I think it's definitely a complimentary speaker (with respect to frequency response) to blend with the V30s for as flat as possible a passband by which to EQ/tweak to your liking.

Mine are coming in the mail today finally from sweetwater. Gonna put 2 in my mesa oversized and leave 2 of the mesa v30s. Super stoked!

Love the sound of the DV77, you will have a battle trying to get the soul of the Evil Wizard I might end up taking you soul haha

thompson was a long time K100 user. the DV77 sounds like a K100 that is more well thought out. much less boxy. finally an eminence speaker that doesn't immediately piss me off

i like the eminence cv 75 it has a bit darker midrange i play one in a 1x12

This speaker really fits the "Kohle Sound" well.

I combined ur dv-77 angry ir with the bogren digital gatesofhell ir and it sounds phenominal

I know this video is old, but wanted to say thanks for this video, I put a couple DV-77s and a couple CV-75s in a cheap Marshall cab I've had for years, it used to sound like muddled crap even with some of the classic high gain amps out there, but with these speakers, I've never been happier with my tone!

It sounds wonderful. Almost like they left the chunk of the swamp thang but fixed the slight honky mids it has

I've bought and I'm waiting for my Oh my goat pedal arrive, I'll buy this speaker and destroy my room, nice video.

Kinda reminiscent of the AlNiCo Cream to my ears, but more compact. Really nice.

Das Teil klingt echt übersatt, und trotzdem hört er sich so sauber an...ich bin begeistert.

That DV-77 sounds really nice!

I’ve never even looked into anything other than Celestion but now that I’m trying to get a custom 4x12 cab built, this speaker sounds awesome!

That so called fizz is part of what makes a V30 sound so rich, full and harmonicly complex in a band mix. The Mesa V30 is incredible. That said the DV77 mixes well with the Governor and Omega/Eminence VM12-65.

I bought the IR pack. Best money I have ever spent on IR’s. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

I tend not to buy signature series equipment but I think I may have to change my mind after hearing this. Eminence did an amazing job with this speaker.

It is crazy how easy it was too get a killer tone using these IRs. They are honestly better than anything else I've tried.

Came back to revisit this, definitely the DV-77 all the way.

man what huge difference that speakers make 😱 its like a whole other amp or guitar

I've always preferred Eminence speakers. My main for the last 10+ years has been the Legend V12 found in the oversized Krank cab. Stellar cleans, killer on heavy distortion but absolutely terrible for a low-gain crunch.

Been awaiting this video!!! Def digging the speaker - the IRs sound dope, too!

Man just got the email with the free IR and bought the pack and now I am amaze of how real the Fortin Nameless sounds, all the IR's are amazing! Great content!

Habe mir 2 gekauft und 2 China-Vintage-30 in meiner 2x12er ersetzt. GEIL! Danke für diese Präsentation wo man genau das hört wie es auch wirklich ist 🙂

I pair my DV-77 with a Governor, sounds amazing. DV-77 is amazing and is also my new favorite speaker. I also have a Granophyre being built, so stoked all the way around.

I bought the IR pack. I havent invested in IRs before and made do with the Gods Cab and Catharsis packs from yonks ago. lets see if this improves my sounds!

Thank you Kristian! After much waiting and back order, I finally got my DV-77’s. And thanks to your IR’s, I paired them with the CV-75’s. Love it!!! 🤘🏻

I want to pair this with a v30 in my 2x12. Absolutely love how articulate this speaker is. I will probably build a bass cab with this speaker in mind as well

mick really knows his stuff. the dv77 sounds fuller and made for low-tuned chugging. i have to have one.

I want to replace the speaker in my Marshall jcm800 4010 combo, it currently has a Celestin wolverine (kinda odd speaker). This New Eminence I think would be awesome in it! I'd love to load my 1990 Carvin 4x12 cab with these new Eminence as well, but cost is definitely a consideration.

I bought the full ir pack on Saturday and it rocks! Makes the stock vintage 30 calif cab ir on my two notes captor sound hollow and dead🤣 Thank you Kristian and Eminence 🤘

Amazing tone. Clarity and punch. Great work.

This sounds so much better than the IR sounds available in the eminence web page. Great work

Just bought EMINENCE DV 77 the DV77 57 off axis IR sound very good with my EVH 5150 III Stealth! Thanks man!

Dude you made me order 4 of these for a 4x 12 avatar cab I picked up. I even have a fernandes Monterey to try with it too lol thanks for the video seriously it helped me decide what I was after

V30's and DV77 mixed in one cab should be fun.

Now I have tried it out for a bit. My beloved Crate now have killer sound on all the steps i can do on it. Thanks to you cool IR kristian. This is actually the first IR that was usable. Please make more ? You have now made a new standard. Perfect blend, on anything is now, what was Mesa can and a 57. Congratulations! You made everything new! Yes yes, i know. I am freaking out again. Not very Norwegian ow me. 😎🤘

That speaker sounds sick, really improves on all the things I dislike about the V30

The ir pack is amazing, I was using an ir with v30s and replaced it with this and there was instant clarity difference. With less of the harsh frequencies that I'm always trying to eq out of the v30s.

I bought your new DV-77 IR pack for $40. They’re awesome, some of the best I’ve used.

Just ordered mine. Didn't have to think about it after hearing it. Keep doing what you doing brother.

Finally someone made a V30 based speaker that sounds good to my ears. I hate V30 with burning Passion but the DV77 has me intrigued. However, I would still try them first next to my Fane M65 before buying them. The Fane M65 are so far the best speakers I've ever used with my Invective, and BV150H.

Really want to hear it vs the Governor

Hey Kristian, danke für deine super Forschungsarbeit. Hast du schon von HESU cabinets mit DEMON Lautsprechern gehört? Made in Poland... Total anders... Ich glaube, das würde dir gefallen. VG

I'm always looking for a bassier version of the v30... this hits the mark... great articulation as well 👌 great job man!!

The DV-77 has similar characteristics to a Greenback and a K-100. I know Mick really liked the K-100 in his iso-box so I wouldn't be surprised if he took heavy inspiration from that speaker.

I've been looking for a new speaker for a cab so I think I have found it in the DV-77! Best get saving..

Thanks for the IR pack, I just bought it. Hope this is one way we can support your work.

Sounds a lot like Mick. But I still prefer the good ol v30 (with a 5150)... although it IS a lot more harsh. I just dig that upper-mid frequencies. Can’t help myself🤷‍♂️

I bought your IR’s for this speaker and haven’t looked back. They sound insane with the Fortin Nameless Suite and sound even better with my Diezel Herbert 🤘

I was able to get two of them a couple weeks ago. I ran out and got them after your teaser in the giveaway video. They are in a Tremoverb 2x12 right now. They are ridiculously good!!!

Big fan of the show! Just bought your IR pack and man, it sounds awesome. The clarity and note definition even with just the projects that I'm doing, just sounds amazing. I'm using it through my Helix on 96 sample rate, I loaded up 441 and there was no sound from it! Anyway, amazing IR pack you've got here. If you are thinking about buying it definitely do it, it's great

The v30 is probably better for lower tunings but it does sound good

took my suggestion on the Swamp Thang I see. ;) Great video man, as always. And ahhh, the second you turned on the V30, that high end sizzle thing that I can't stand about it became so much more apparent. (I'm one of the people who complain about the V30 being too harsh. haha)

Usually not a fan of eminence but DAMN this one is a beast

I tried both through my Engl Pro 1x12 cab and found the opposite, lol. I have to boost the mids of the DV more. I also found the DV was about 2 dB quieter than the V30. I’ll give the DV some more time and see.

Love the IR's... just got my dv-77's today after about three months.. maybe more.... gonna x pattern them with k100's in a Mojotone 4x12 and also a pair of 2x12 cabs... Should be brutal.

Super awesome guitar tone! Can't wait to buy your iR pack and try it in my metal mixes!

Kohle, Kohle, Kohle! you son of a lu. i just bought the IR pack, you gave the hope back to the IR's BRO ! much love and respect man, this is even better then jens b. IR. do not get me wrong, jens is great IR. but, here is the but, your was way better. and i have a lot of them, IR's from producers and so on. please make more kristian. now we can finaly get a killer sound. thank you, thank you, thanke you! frank-eddie nikolaisen!! all you need is kohle. master of the univers, now i am freaking out to much, not very norwegian of me. ;)
