The right cab for my new 36w RP?

[bobf]

Hi there. I have a Ceriatone 18watt TMB with a 25w Greenback. I love it so much I bought a 36W RP. I am now trying to find the right cab that will give me the best sound

From what i can tell, a 2x12 with two 25 speakers (say, Green Berets) and wired for 16 ohms is a good way to go.

Any comments, suggestions? Thanks

If you like the Greenback, then you'll like 2 of them twice as much, right? Also, that's kind of a tough one to pair with a different speaker because it is a good bit less efficient than most other British speakers.

One poster suggested a Greenback paired with a Celestion GH1230 to give "The Tone". What do you think of that idea?

A G12H30 is 3 or 4 dB louder than a Greenback, which is a lot, so you'll mostly be hearing the G12H30 if you pair them up. The G12H30 plus Vintage 30 is a very popular combination, however.

You might also want to consider a single speaker for your 36W. In the general Greenback/G12H30 area all of the following could be good choices:

Warehouse Reaper HP - 50W G12H30, warmer, smoother
Eminence Legend GB128 - 50W Greenback, similar to the original
Eminence Private Jack - very similar to the last one
Eminence Wizard - 75W G12H30

I really appreciate your knowlegable tips on this. You've given me much to think about.

Excellent. You should be able to find more info on most of those speakers using the search tool here.
