Have any of you replaced the Celestion V-Type with an alnico speaker? I plan to do so in about two weeks.

The Celestion V-Type magnet almost touches the bottom of one of the EL34s, but the magnet diameter is about 5.3 inches. Whereas, the Hellatone A25 alnico has a magnet assembly that is 4.8 inches in diameter (but the speaker has a depth of about an inch more than the V-Type).

If this works, it will mean the A25 will extend under the EL34 and almost touch it, whereas the V-type extends to the lower side of the EL34 (but not under it) and almost touches it.

I'll report back!

In the meantime, if you've dropped an alnico into this amp, I'd like your opinion of how it affected tone (and any thoughts on tube/magnet interference).

Thanks!
