Mike Brown Help!

Post by Marc Krueger »

I'm the guy with all the speaker questions about a good 15" speaker.
I went to Seattle yesterday and the Peavey dealer sold me a 1508 8HE Black Widow. He said that it was the same speaker that is in the Nashville 1000 only with a less sterile sound. I did not get to read all of your replies until I returned home last night but it looks like I bought the wrong speaker. Has anyone tried the one that I purchased or know the story behind it? I really appreciate all your help.
Thanks!!!!

Most use a 1501 shallow basket now - some amps like the old Vegas used 1502's - I have used a 1503, but prefer to use the 1501. I'm not sure what is in the nashville 1000 - but I doubt that is it!
That sounds more like a speaker for a P.A. System!

I think the 1501-4 SB is standard in the 1000.

Peavey uses a different material in the cone of a 1501. It is made to handle a steel.
