Multi-speaker cabs/mixed speakers

[Baltar]

Heya,
I remember that a lot of you have mixed speakers in your cabs.  Ex:  4x12 Marshall (2 G12H30's, 2 V30's) etc.  Lay it on me, does it make a difference?  Benefits?

I had one with mixed, one with all v30's..4x12's.
The difference was minimal to my ears...
In both cases they were new speakers. celestians i believe.
Im looking at the v30 cab now, avatar cabs.

couple years ago i was hear8ing some mallarky about removing one speaker from a 4x12 being all the rage.

Been considering doing the g12h30/v30's mix in another cab but assumed a quad set of g12h30's would be better for a warmer sound than a mix. That way I'd have 1 cab with v30's and another w/ g12h30's.

I had an Avatar with V30/g12h30 mix, good speaker combo too bad cab cannot handle the beef, 100W amps push it too hard, baffle distorts 2 much.

I thought avatar fixed that problem a while back? There used to be a guy on here that had that issue but it was on a scratch 'n dent special.

Slight Smoothing of the frequency response. Ei less peaks and dips cause the different drivers and their size.

Different speakers in the same cab sounds baltarded.

Wasn't my idea, blame Danny G!  I think he did that.
