Pic #1 and #3 are very similar, #1 being the spider web which is my preference slightly over #3.

Yes - Totally agree with Tim's comment above. I've tried BWs, D130s (which I like in other amps, but not twins, and tons of other speakers). The Altec is magic. I have a couple of 417bs as well, the 1 ...

In my opinion the Altec is the best speaker ever made. I have them in multiple amps.

Thank you for the reply ! - have you tried the Altec compared to the peavey Black Widow 1501 (spider web) 15&quo ...

Rasmus: Dumb question here.

You have a Dumble style amp.
That is not "normally" thought of as a pedal steel type amp.

What are you playing?
6 string?
Lap steel?
Pedal steel?

So ...

How much output power does your amp have ?

I play a dumble style 50 watt head, similar to a redplate redverb. Plenty of clean headroom. Loud amp.

Hi all,

The original 1501 black widows (spider web decal on flat magnet) cones were Paper cones--no kevlar.
Kevlar came later.

One more question, Dennis Detweiler, do you by chance know if the Black Widow 1501 Flat Mag sprider print is made with Kevlar impregnated cones ? I see that the super structure models are made with Ke ...

Okay, I guess I will pull the trigger on them and hope they sound just recenably close to the 1501's !

Might have to try the JBL K then. I did not like the D at all when I tried it.
