I just rehabilitated this old Peavey 1810/1820 Bass Cab, replacing the recently blown and approaching 50 year old original Peavey Scorpion 10" speakers.

I usually use Eminence as my preference when replacing speakers.

This time PRV Audio won out. PRV 10W650W 8 Ohm from Parts-Express Part #294-2725. These speakers matched or exceeded the specifications needed to and cost $140 for a pair where every other speaker was approaching $200 each.

The speakers, now installed, sound great. My initial response is that they very clean and clear, very smooth. The speakers arrived very well packaged. My only beef is that they only have two terminal lugs which forced me into making MUCH BETTER Soldiered connections than I would have had using the original snap on wiring.

Ernie Ball is back in stock at Groovehaven. Due to popular demand I have added to the line up -

Now offering :

Earthwood Rock&Blues Phosphor Bronze 10 - 52 gauge acoustic sets with an unwound G string

Paradigm Series Slinky sets. Paradigm strings are Ernie Ball's premium coated electric guitar strings. Constructed with specially treated wired, reinforcement wrapping at the ball end and coated. I have tried these and they sound great and last forever without tarnishing or breaking. They also come with a 90 day factory warranty.

RPS Coated Slinky sets. These are Ernie Ball's traditional Slinky strings with added reinforcement wrapping at the ball end and coated.

Everlast Coated Acoustic Phosphor Bronze guitar sets. Ernie Ball's proprietary nanotechnology coating is applied to both the inner hex core and to the outer wrap wire, providing excellent protection against the corrosive effects of sweat and finger oils.

I have 12 string acoustic sets back in stock and have also replenished my stock of the classic Slinky electric and Earthwood Phosphor Bronze acoustic sets.
