Not seen any chat on this here, Celestion’s new anniversary Alnico:

30watts of power handling and apparently a new cone recipe. Looks cool, very spendy, anyone tried one?

I'm surprised they haven't made this before. The cost and demand for originals these days is off the scale. Appears pricey initially however when you think of other top end speakers such as EVs, tone tubby alnicos etc it's actually aligned with them

Not available until March, I’ve got three on order.

All Alnico are expensive now but the trade pricing wasn’t as bad as I’d expected it to be. There’s finally some margin in Celestion!

Zilla have a video up for this bad boy:

How does this differ from the Blue and Ruby?

Thinking about an Alnico Blue for my 5E3, but wondering about the alternative options.

I think this is well covered in the video. Paul explains it better than I could and the video uses the Blue as a reference with A/B comparisons.

Great, thanks. Was at work before but will give it a listen.

Howdy, Stranger!
