1960TV vs 1960A Cabinets

[lovehifi]

I have a JVM410HJS. I was using a 90s built 1960TV cabinet with four British Greenbacks. Sounds great. I just picked up a 1960A with the GT12-75s. To me the GT12s sound better and are better detailed. Am I crazy to like the GT12s over the Greenbacks? I thought for sure I would like the greenbacks better. Maybe its the highs and lows that are more defined with the GT12s that I am hearing where the greenbacks seem more mid heavy.

what would be really cool is to rip those greenbacks out of the TV and install the 75's.

I was thinking the same. However I might also try a x-pattern in the TV cabinet mixing the greenbacks and GT12s.

I thought you'd like them more.

those green backs are for the older style amps.

joe's unique pickups are making the warmth in the 75 speakers.
you'll have way too much with the greenbacks.

I've got this delema of cab size too.
It might make some difference to you standing near the cab but at the back of the area, I think the standard size is better.
the other option is bigger looks more impressive.

I mixed those for a while with good results, however I liked my GBs more than the 75's and ended up with a quad and sold the 75's. Try it is all I can say and let us know your thoughts.

actually dreyn77 i think you maybe right, after much a/b comparison between the TV and other cabs i now believe its as good as any ,as i to was kinda sceptical for a while.
