Cabinet Curious

Hello all. I'm a newbie, looking for some help with my rig. Please speak only in quarter notes.
I played regularly in the 60s, dropped out when I went to university, and recently came out of retirement to find a whole new world of gear. So I'm getting into it, just got an Eden Navigator (1000W stereo) which is giving my Eden Nemesis 2x10 fits. My top priority is a good cab for the bottom end, and then a better quality 2x10 or something for the top end. I've found the discussions here of over/under driving very useful (I'm no longer as concerned about trying a Bergantino cab rated at 350W), although in stereo mode the amp is showing the Nemesis cab up to 500W (into a 300W cab) and it fraps horribly unless I use the crossover control to emphasize the other cab (borrowed Mesa 15). Sorry for the long story - what I haven't seen discussed is speaker stiffness, and whether certain speakers will be over/underdriven because of that rather than just the wattage?
I need to come up with a good pair of cabinets that I can use for rock, blues, folk/country. I don't slap, and I rarely use a pick. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |
