WGS Liberator (new model)
Posted: Tue Jun 14, 2011 9:12 pm
Let me preface this by saying I've listened to MANY clips (independant and manufacturer) of WGS speakers over the past couple of weeks and honestly I think almost every one of their speakers I've heard sounds like crap. I know they have a following and if you like their sound the prices are definitely affordable...all the more power to ya.
I just heard a clip of their new Liberator 80 speaker and I was blown away. http://www.wgs4.com/liberator-80-80-watts I'm a fan of that mids-heavy, early 70's, Himbuckers thru a cranked plexi sound (think Free, Jimmy Page, early Rush,etc...) Their clip of this Liberator really blew me away. This was almost a grail tone for me. I'm shopping for cabs and speakers atm. And after hearing that clip, I really want to check these out. Anyone else liking the mids on this speaker? Clean it sounded a bit limited in the high end - might mix well with a different speaker...but I'll be playing dirty 98% of the time. I could get a dinged up 2x12 and throw a pair of these in there for next to nothing. Decisions...decisions.
