I installed a Mod 12-70 in my Lab L3 and i was immediately knocked out by the sound - the low end was tighter and the mids were more complex. Clean or distorted it was the sound I had wanted for years. On a whim I installed a Mod 8-20 in an old Peavey Rage 158 - the sound opened up with more lows and mids and volume. This small 15W amp is now my go-to for small rooms and recording.

I bought four 8" MOD speakers for a 4x8” cab project I was working on. I’m really happy with the speakers. They were easy to install and sound really good paired with a Fender Pro Jr as the head. Congrats on a great product.
