speaker recommendation- Gibson Hawk

8/17/2005 6:26 PM
Peter	speaker recommendation- Gibson Hawk I'm restoring a Gibson Hawk, and need speakers for it. It puts out about 25-30 watts (from 2 7591s), and is a 2x10 combo. It still has 1 of the original speakers, which looks a bit underrated for the amp-- a ceramic CTS with a little square magnet. Any recommendations? Efficiency is an issue since I want to use the amp, and I'm not sure it's up to be played on "10" for hours....! I notice Weber has a Signature series that are about half the price of their Jensen-style speakers like 10F100 and so on... how do these compare? Anybody got an opinion on Eminence Legend 102? thanks, Peter
