dale	Re: Reverb feedback? i believe that there may be some magnetic pull on the pan or springs from the speaker magnet. it can happen with the stock speaker, but if you replaced it with a speaker with a stronger magnet that makes it even more likly the cause. i say this because i use EV12L speakers in combos, and i've found that problem happening a couple times after putting the EV in an amp that never did that before. what i did to solve it was try different mounting positions. i unscrewed the pan and let it sit outside of the amp to see if that helped. it did, so i tried putting it back in the amp and re-positioning it till i found a place where it didn't do it. you can try the sides or a different position on the bottom. sometimes only a few inches will be enough. try it, you got nothing to lose, and it cured the prob for me a couple times. tryin to mount it with foam or weatherstripping or something like that may be worth a try to, but it never helped me, and probably won't help if it IS the speaker magnet. -dale
