Celestion TF 1525 http://professional.celestion.com/pro/pdf/TF1525.pdf

I've checked other forum

| | | | We are talking about the size of a cabinet?
Sorry for those questions, but I'vw just begun my advanture with
technical matters.... |

| | | | Dammmm
My Trace is at the repair shop (I left it there fo check-out)
mambe i'll find that model's cabinet size on the net.... |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2004 Location: Bristol, Connecticut, USA | | | We would really need the interior dimensions and the port dimensions (diameter and depth). It would be difficult to speculate how much volume is lost to the amplifier itself. Am I correct that this combo has two 12" drivers and two ports? If you are only interested in replacing one driver and keeping the other it would be wise to get a factory replacement. Different driver types don't play nice...........you would likely be very dissapointed with the results. |

Wattage 300w R.M.S
Speaker(s) 1x15
EQ 7 band (TE GP7 preamp)
Effects effects loop
+1 on calling British Audio Service and get an OEM replacement.
This is what BAS lists for available replacement speakers: http://www.britishaudioservice.com/s...speakers.shtml
Don't know if that helps the OP.

| | | I've read on other post, that Eminence speaker even improved
the sound of TE.
If i could only find specification for those speakers from http://www.britishaudioservice.com/s...speakers.shtml
EDIT:
Well I found one specification for those amps from that site...
Eminance is not that different then Celestion BL15-250
so I think Beta 15a will be given a try..

For sure that's gonna repeal the principles involved. Sure beats the "fell off the back of a truck" BL15-300 everybody else gets. |
01-24-2011, 01:30 PM
| | | | well what I meant was the fact that this TE is 20 years old
and so is the speaker....
and now I've bought new line of cleestion speaker's
I don't know whether this truvox 1525 beats BL15-300
but the difference is not that big |
01-24-2011, 01:34 PM
| | | | well, the speaker has been bought,
thx for help
