i have the opportunity to buy a 69 marshall 8x10 pinstripe with 10" speaker 7442 (cones stamped with n184lm and N184L Q or O lo on the other), are these cabs and speakers good sounding ?
i am used to original greenback g12h30 75 hz (as well as to the 55hz version and the original g12m25 75 hz) i mostly use with my marshall amps but i never heard those 7442 speakers .
i read they could be too bright and teh samples i heard on youtube didn't sound that great but they were not very well recorded.
it seems Jim/ Scumback was saying those speakers might not be the best celestion 10" of that era.
