Hey Guys,
Just received my Celestion Cream 90 and couldn't be happier!!!
As you said, ticks all the boxes related to my issues. The amp now has a controlled bottom end and smooth highs, but still maintaining a strong presence. And that's straight out of the box!
My main issue with the old speaker (70/80) was the difference in voicing between my Rivera channel1 and channel2. Now they match perfectly.
I agree this was a better choice than the Canis Major as in the end the CM would be too smooth because of the hemp cone + alnico magnet.
I have a Cannabis rex, bought from "Lean", which is awesome as the hemp cone smoothes the ceramic magnet hardness. But for this Rivera I kinda needed the alnico dynamic and your advice was spot on.
Thanks one more time for an excellent customer service enhanced by the usual super fast delivery.
All the best!
