I can't understand why Copperback sounded so dark in this shootout while in real life it is the exact opposite. I am glad it retains the notorious type personality, though. It seems this is the kind of speaker that brings forward the true personality of your amp head. I got it and it was kind of difficult at first but at considerable volumes it is pure love.
Copperback every time. Has a wider frequency response than the other two. (Can go up to 5500Hz rather than only 5000Hz) Doesn’t get muddy as quick as other speakers with a more narrow range.
Opinion: I liked the Copperback 12" 250 for its clean tone, this speaker would work well for a player looking for their own new sound maybe mix with a V-30?
I really like the Copperback 250. All the 3 sound good , depending on what style your playing. I think though, for metal fast rhythms or lead, the Copperback outperforms the 2 others. Awesome note separation , even with high gain. It suits the Mesa/Boogie really well . It reminds me the evm12l . I thinking about bying one for my Mesa Mark iii combo.
I'm digging the neodymium magnet used in my Entwistle HDN bridge pickup. High Definition tightness rules with me. That being said. I never new about neodymium magnets in speakers till this video. The Neo Creamback sounds great on it's own. The New Copperback has definitely grabbed my attention though. I see the frequency range is from 70-5500hz, and sensitivity is at 100db.The bottom is tight, and the highs chime nicely, but not spiked. I does have neutral low mids though. Fortunately for me. I like 2X12 twelve cabs with 2 different speakers that blend well with each other. After futher research I find the G12 Century Vintage. Frequency range is 75-5000hz at 98db Sounds like a Kick Ass high def Tight sounding speaker. BUT it's lacking a little in the bottom end a bit. The mids are where this bad boy shines. So what I'm going to do is pair a G12 Century Neo with a Copperback Neo in a 2X12 vertical cab I found, and Lord have mercy on the crowded houses soul. And weighing in at a mere 40lb. I feel it would destroy a 4X12 cab LOL. But that's just MHO. Somebody please tell me I'm wrong before I do This!
Im in the process of equipping a cab with speakers...i already decided for 2 g12 heritage´s ... now i need two speaker to handle the high´s .... it needs to be more treble tha the g12h. any suggestions ?!?!?
