Initially I purchased this speaker as a replacement for a K100 speaker, which blew up. Initially I was blown away by how full and balanced this speaker sounds. I find V30s overly harsh in the high mids, Creambacks overly saturated in the low mids and K100s lacking in definition. The Redback speaker seems to combine the best of all three. Monsterously fat tone that is suited for any style, from twangy cleans to crushing high gain. The 150w power rating also allows this speaker to be used as a single speaker with pretty much any amp.

Great low-mid oriented speaker

Gundabad Orc 12.02.2019

The title says it all. If you want to tame an amp with too much high mids, this is the speaker for you, as it delivers the traditional Celestion voiced-clarity with a good emphasis on the low-mid territory. The treble is still there, and the lows are very good too. I sold my Vintage 30s, which sounded a little too agressive with my ENGL Blackmore, and I definitly prefer these. Mind you, I like V30s with lots of other amps who benefit from a more open-sounding speaker, but with my ENGL these sound much more balanced and thicker, both miced and in the room.
The sensitivity rating at 100dB does seem a bit misleading, as the tamed high mids make this speaker sound a bit quieter than the louder V30s I had before. But I don't see that becoming a problem, unless you're planing to mix speakers in the same cab - in that case, I'd rather mix it with something like a T75 or something with similar output.

Redbacks all the way

Don’t want to sound like all those green backers!

Thick Greenback style

MMihai3 06.04.2025

The speaker does what it's supposed to do: deliver the classic Celestion tone with a thick bass. Has a very high power rating but it doesn't sound "clean headroom" or sterile. It has an organic feel and its voice is immediately recognizable. Very useful to thicken a small cabinet.
