How much do the Celestion V30 speakers cost?

[ahjteam]

I mean that this 4x12 with Celestion V30s is on sale for only 355€ with 40% off (normally 598€)... I was wondering if it was worth the deal just for the V30s

Not only for the V30s. It really ain't a bad cab, you'll most likely find it to outperform much more expensive cabs. Just try the impulses from this cab that have been posted here and you'll get an idea.

And, btw, that "40% off" is bullshit. Harley Benton IS Thomann, that's all just marketing (the cab has never been on for 598€ and most likely never ever will be). But that doesn't change the fact that this is a pretty useful cab.

I have one of those, and all i can say is: If you can afford it, buy it!
I've had about 4 different cabs(Tried like 15.), and this sounds better then most cabs ive played through.
Of course there are better cabs, but not anywhere near that pricerange, thats for sure.

Harley Benton cabs are rebadged Framus cabs. Great quality for very little money.

V30s are at about 90€ each in Italy iirc...

Looks like the speakers cost 129€ at Thomann, 4 x 129 = 516€

The Harley Benton cabs are actually very well made. We've got two at the studio and I'll say they're built better than Marshalls. Certainly the internal wiring is far better than the doorbell wire Marshall uses for their cabs.

Buy anything which has better cable than marshall cabs as it does improve the tone.

Also check the speakers for rattles as vintage 30's are prone to it.

is that for sure? where did you get that from?

If what everyone says here it´s true (and i have no reason to think otherwise) these seem like some killer cabs money wise.
Got me looking into them!!!

Not an area I ever pass through to be honest. My bands guitarist lives over there though, he probably knows it.
