NEW Celestion A Type Demo

Celestion

collapse expand iconDescription

Inspired by American amp designs, the A-Type is a different kind of guitar speaker from Celestion. The A-type has the musical and revealing three- dimensional quality that is the heart and soul of the Celestion sound, however it features a laid-back midrange which reveals extra body and complexity in the upper register, accompanied by full and rounded low frequencies.The A-Type conveys a fluid, even performance with an increased headroom threshold that allows your amp' tone to shine through. Clean players will love the smooth articulation; for rockers the brooding, powerful low end grind is just a heavy riff away.

    I am currently using this in a single 1 x 12 cabinet driven by a 5 watt tube amp. Compared to the original speaker ( Celestion 8 inch 15 watt) this speaker is louder at the same volume settings. It has better bass response and more headroom before breaking up. Still breaking in the speaker but so far good. I only wish that they had put a mounting gasket on both the front and back of the speaker flange.

  • Great speaker

    Replaced stock Jensen speaker in a Hot Rod Deluxe. Improved the overall tone quite a bit. Tighter lows and pleasurable highs.

  • Cut those muddy mids!
