I haven't tried this setup with my Rocket yet, but I have an old blue Univox 2x12 cabinet with a pair of V30's loaded, and use it with one of my Express amps. Sounds great, and really cuts through. But for the Rocket, I am thinking that a smoother response might be needed for my taste.

Dartanion at Tonic Amps is the USA distributer for Fane speakers.

Is there a price list for the guitar speakers available?

I have a rocket reverb w/el34's that normster built. Sweet unit!! It sounds best (to my fried ears) with a G12H30, with the Celestion blue a close second. The speakers were in half-open back 1x12 cabs that I designed for Moss a few years back. I also have an oval back version of that cab, but I think it sounds too tight compared to the open back version. I have tried that amp on every speaker I have. Didn't care for the V30, EV12L (old original), tonespotter, G12-65 (old original, 15 ohm), and a G12-65 heritage.

The vintage 30 in open back 212 cabinet sounds pretty darn good on my Rocket Reverbs.

Did not like the 212 openback with blues or gold/blue combination.

Sounded Ok with G12H30 openback.

I've landed on a Vin30 in an open back combo. Haven't tried 2X12 yet. I also tried a Gold and a Blue and a G1265. The Vin30 is clearly my favorite.
