    I wonder if anyone have tested vintage 30 + greenback (25W) in a 4x12 cab? If so, what's your experience of it? Just hit me :horse

    I tried it in a 212 way back when. The V30 overpowered the GB when listening close range.

    +1. The 3dbs the V30 has over the GB makes a pretty noticeable difference...

    Easy fix for this...put the Greenies on top and they'll be just fine. Nect to each other or in an X-pattern will be weird. I got a 4x12 like that and love it.

    S'funny. I tried the same combo a couple of years ago. Sounded pretty good to me and , strangely, I never could perceive the V30 as being louder than the GB. They always seemed to put out about the same volume.

    Ah, but then I am almost deaf !! :jo
