EV Speakers in Mesa Boogie Road Ready 2x15?

hey yeah was deff. a fan of his tone though ironically enough I never knew this is what he used.

that tone, and shellac / jesus lizard bass sound is for sure my orientation.

are you sure it was an SVTII he used as some sources report a SVT 400T

which would really surprise me as that is just 200 solid state watts and he had like 4 big ass mesa cabs
yes you are right he did infact use the 400T i looked at your amp wrong. but still is a killer set up! much respect.

yes he used about 4 MESA BOOGIE 2x15's ROADREADY
 
boogie 2-15 speaker type question
Does anyone know why the boogie 2-15 has 2 separate cavities? I was under the impression that 2-15's in same box was more efficient.. wondering if would be ok to run an evB in bottom and a evL in top of this boogie 2-15? since they are 2 separate cavities!

I do have a freshly reconed EVM 15L, removed from my old Road Ready Mesa cab with a torn cone. I did the recone myself and the end result is very nice. I have no further use for it so would be willing to sell if someone needs one.
 
OEM means Original Equipment Manufacture, basically, what it came with, from the factory
OEM usually also implies that it was a special order/design not available to the general public as an individual speaker - you could only get that speaker by buying the cab it came in. Sometimes it's with the proprietary design specs to make a better product, sometimes it's just to cut costs.
 
Thanx Bogey, would You Go with the B's or L's for EV in a mesa 2 15? I play in drop d and drop c sharp somestimes.. PP

I have the same cab, as near as I can tell I have L's. I play in drop C and the speakers and cab just work perfect. Very clean lows and very very punchy mids, which makes it easy go cut through the mix in a live situation. Just my experience of course, but this is the best cab I have ever owned works great for low tuning.
 
thanx goonz, i read somewhere that the B's have better Lows and go almost as high, not sure about the mids (which I don't dial in gobs of mids anyway)
anyone else ever try the EVB'S in one of these?

I am going off my personal research and other responses I have got here on TB about having the L's. So keep that on mind about my personal experiences.

When I play live I never have trouble hearing myself or cutting through the mix on stage even using low tunings. This is for sure the heaviest (100+ lbs) cab I have owned but it seems worth the hassle of transporting this beast.

I have no experience with the B's so I am of no help with that question. If you find any info I would appreciate if you would share It here for my own curiosity.
 
So I have decided to sell my Boogie 2x15, but I have been contacted a few times from people interested in just the original speakers but not the speaker box. What would be a fair price on just the speakers sold individually? I have looked around but can't seem to find them for sale without the cab? Any help is appreciated.
