Got home yesterday and the little brown truck had brought
My eminence cannibis Rex 50 watt.
I went with this speaker because of the music I play,
and at 95 bucks I won't be as disappointed.
Here are some pics
This is with it installed,

Since I had to remove the chassis, here
are some internal circuitry pics

Not great pics, but I was kinda in a rush.
Innitial thoughts , I played it for about 20 mins
And loved the fat cleans, just as described
by eminence, rounded highs, tight lows
Sounded great IMHO, I'll give it time to break
In.
I don't have pics of the Bjr , I swapped
the c12n for the p12q Jensen, and that
Speaker goes great in that amp.

By the looks of it I believe it has the
Opto tremolo in it right?

Yes, your amp still has the opto-isolater trem.

I'm glad your speaker swap worked out.

Rawk on!

i was surprised how the clean tone @ volume 5, and how loud it was. i was mostly surprised how the P12Q reacts with the bjr, made the overdrive creamier than the C12N jensen, and more natural. I liked the P 12Q in the drri but lacked headroom and B@lls,
but i love it in the Bjr, even though it doesnt have anywhere near a 5E3 circuitry, i believe the one is closer to a5E3 to my ears. (never played or heard a 5E3 before other than youtube) so take my statement with a grain of salt.
