Anyone know where I can find a 12" 4ohm speaker? Manufacturers and the like? I would like one of decent sound quality to put in my second speaker cab. Any help would be appreciated. Thank's guys!

12" 4 ohm might be tough. I'm pretty sure EV makes one. (Probably JBL too) Usually 12's are 8 ohms because you use them in pairs.

Are you sure you want your extention cabinet with a 4 ohm? That might drive your amp to around 2 ohms depending if you are in series or paralell.

The Weber California ceramic speaker with paper dust cap. I don't know your power needs--it is conservatively rated for 80W. I love this speaker! You can get it at any impedance you choose.

Twelve inch four ohm speakers are available. As Bill Terry states, we offer the 1208-4 ohm Black Widow, the 1203-4 BW, Peavey Blue Marvel 1238MI speakers that are all rated at 4 ohms. But, all of the above speakers are voiced for different instrument applications. If you will provide further information as to what the application is, I'll help you select the proper speaker.

Sincerely,

Not any more! EV officially got out of the musical instrument speaker business over a year ago. Might be some "new old stock" laying around somewhere, but they ain't making them anymore.

A similar speaker to the EV is the Weber "Michigan" ceramic series, but I'm not sure about the impedances available.

Thank's for all of the replies and info, I really appreciate it. At one time I used an Evans FET 500 and a Fender Concert with a 12" speaker, and the effects really sounded better with that speaker combination. I think Robbie Turner uses this combination also. Thank's for your help.
