Celestion VT-Junior 8 Ohm

Acquistato per montarlo in un cabinet 1x12 da me costruito, sono soddisfatto. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Posso dire che come suono appare più versatile e meno scuro e meno hard rispetto al consueto di altri coni Celestion, anche se questa è una risultante di fattori multipli, come : i materiali e la tecnica costruttiva del mio cabinet, la testata alla quale è stato collegato,(per ora provato solo con una Joyo Bantamp bluejay), ed anche l'isolamento dello studio. Il suono comunque è ben definito e non impastato, nel pulito, ed anche nel distorto. Consigliato !

I got hold of an old Marshall lead 12 combo made in 1985 and fitted with a UK made Celestion. I wasn't too happy with the sound but didn't want to spend too much on this amp which kind of ruled out a Greenback. I decided to try this speaker based of the great sound that Blackstar and Marshall get out of them. I wasn't disappointed - the sound was not too different from the original speaker in the amp but the speaker is definitely more efficient making the amp louder for the same settings and the overall sound is just tighter, especially the bottom end which just feels a bit tighter and less muddy - still plenty of it though. It is probably no brighter than the original bit it is a 10" speaker so tends to be fairly bright anyway. All in all, I'm really impressed with the speaker, for the price it is superb. I know this is made in China but I don't care where it is made so long as the quality control is good and I have no complaints about this speaker whatsoever.

It is hard to give a good description of what a speaker sounds like, it has to be subjective and depends on many factors. I'm using it with an open-back 12watt solid state combo from the 80's at relatively low volumes at home. In my opinion it sounds a bit more 'modern' than a Greenback but not as much as a Vintage 30 does, it is somewhere between the two, probably closer to the Greenback but your opinion likely differs. Either way, it is a nice, solid feeling speaker with a good sound at a good price.

Works well in a 1X10 combo (someone repots it lacks some bass, but I play guitar....I don't need too much low frequancies) and does fit (!) many small cabs. Also it works well in a 2X10 with a similar sensitivity (95dB) speaker.
A flat speaker with no 'spike' in the middle frequency (as the G10 Vintage); pretty bright and linear in all the spectrum.
As his bigger cousin the VT-Junior is a nice, all around, speaker for clean tones as well as for distorted ones.
Pretty standard and OEM in many modern amps.
Recommended? Why not!

in my opinion, this speaker is the best value for the money in category of 10" guitar speakers, very good "all-rounder" for home/small studio use. I wouldn't go below 10" size, because 8" size guitar speakers can not provide sound that is "big" and good enough. on the other hand, 12" is to big for home use.
VT-junior speaker sound similar to his big brother V-Type, not exactly the same, but close enough.
