Im going to replace the 10s in one of my cabs so I can wire it at 16 ohms . What brand do the forum folks prefer ? I dont need loud but I do like them DEEP .

I loved the Celestions that were in my old Trace Elliot Mk1 4x10 (this was before they ported them or even covered the cabs - which were painted - and this is WELL before they started with the Kevlar 10s, which I don't care for). That was the best sounding cab for my Rics that I've ever played. Wish I still had it/could still carry it!

Whatever size/make...make sure you know that it's a LONG coil version.

Eminence . I have Eminence NEO Deltalights that sound great but are the wrong Ohms for what I need . Anyone using the Eminence Legend BP-102s ?

Eminence are one of the best around. In the past I also used JBL and more recently, Cerwin Vega, all long-coil with stiff cast basket structures and lots of magnet.

I also like Eminence, the mid 70's and later SVT's used them. Why do you want to wire a cab for 16 ohms? How many speakers are in it and if you are using a low wattage amp I wouldn't get speakers with a high wattage rating as they are stiffer than lower wattage speakers and don't go as deep all things being equal.
