Peerless 830 847 12″ 350 Watt 8 Ohm Round XXLS Subwoofer

This classic guitar speaker actually started life as a radio speaker that was modified specifically for use in electric guitar amplifiers. In its original incarnation as the G12 T530 it appeared in several colour variations, but it was the Blue version, fitted as standard into Vox AC30 amps, that secured its place in guitar tone history.

The Blue found favour with notable guitarists like Brian May, due to its glorious dampened attack, warm lows, mellow upper-mids and brilliant belllike top-end. When coupled with a suitable amplifier it evokes rich definition and develops beautiful musical compression when pushed. According to tone enthusiasts worldwide, the Blue is the benchmark for guitar speaker perfection.

Long excursion 12" woofer with 800W power handling for
subwoofer application. A special 3" copper voice coil using
proprietary high temperature adhesives and an optimized
magnet assembly guarantees superb LF dynamic range with a
very low distortion. Due to the linear characteristics of the 12
PZ 32, exceptional results are obtained in horn loaded
subwoofer applications.
