Just found out from my friends at Celestion that this is being delayed until September.
They said as of right now it would be sold only on an OEM basis if market responds and interest shown.
They are Not considering direct sales to consumer at all.
So my question was to them from that response was "is this a viable product then?"
Complete silence...
Does that response surprise you? I seriously doubt they would have put the time and effort into making the speaker if they didn't think there was a viable market, which there is.
To me this kind of response tells me that Celestion wants to sell to manufacturers that are building a complete solution and that the DIY type is not the market they want to target.
Why not do both ? Like every other speaker they make ?
doesn't make any sense - I'm kind of bummed - I had a free open back 1x12 that was waiting for this speaker...

They said " if market responds and interest shown." So it may not be viable if the demand from oe's isn't there.
Or they do not want people putting their speaker into some shitty boxes and having negative experiences with it?
They do not care, V30 already has its "brand" name.Guess you could say that about any speaker - how do they know every V30 they sell isn't going into a shit box ?
So any idea what brand will be using this speaker??? I want to buy one ASAP!
OOOOOHHHHH.....really???I can't speak for other brands but I do know that XiTone will be getting some samples in for testing in the near future. Based on that testing it is highly likely that we'll be featuring the F12-X200 in some of our models.
OOOOOHHHHH.....really???
Now that is interesting news!
So when will you have them? Also, will using them in a new cab design of you will potentially make the product cost lest since for example the poweramp just has to be a 1 channel instead of a dual channel to power the woffer and the driver separately?Interesting indeed! I've known about the F12-X200 for almost two years now. Been itching to get my paws on one for a long time... even more so since it was officially announced back in January at NAMM.

Yup. So it's probably easier to put it in a guitar cab without a power amp built in, and just use something like the Powerstage 170.So a quick question regarding how to power this speaker, since it has an internal crossover circuit you would need to have a poweramp with only one channel yes? I'm asking because I see a lot of 2 channel Full Range Plate Amplifiers that are ment for independently power up the highs and the lows on different speakers/tweeters.
