They retail for about £100 each. If I were in your shoes, I'd see if Warwick would get Celestion to send you eight for you to fit yourself. I think it's the least they could do for one of their endorsees. The speakers will probably cost Warwick about £35 each at OEM prices, which you should offer to pay because you will be able to recover a large chunk of this by selling the old drivers on eBay. You would then have a 2,000 watt cabinet that will piss all over anything you can buy in a shop.

stevie Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Congrats, Ray - a job well done. I'd be happy with a pair of those drivers and you've got eight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 As a general rule I am not surpirsed that cost comes very much into play with 8x10 cabs. The Ampeg cab always had poor speakers IME.. but was partly saved by there being so many of them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
