Thanks, I will try to play some bass guitar on them as soon as that friend can find the time.
I kinda like their tone, they are just too stiff as they are still brand new. Strange thing is, you (and many others) allways say they are so bright but mine aren't. They are very bassy, I ussually turn the bass almost all the way down and the treble 3/4 up...
Like I said they are still brand new and havent been played very loud and I don't have a lot to compare with but that is what it sounds like to me.

You don't find them bright? Huh...that hasn't been my experience with the four I've had...my guess is that this is a speaker that is under constant development, cuz they almost ripped my head off with the treble turned off and the bass and mids turned all the way up.

I find mine brite! I also have a Marshall ax cab with the regular(not Heritage)25's and its also brite. Now I also have a 73 100 watt Marshall cab with the original speakers with 1 being reconed :( However it sounds not brite at all! Very warm sounding. I thought with 3 speakers being reconed it would be stiff and brite but no. Compared to my brite sounding cabs it almost sounds "broke" Not right but I know its O.K. and the new Marshall cabs have the issue!

It's great to see your enthusiasm for exploring different ways to improve your speaker cone's performance. While some people have experimented with using fabric softener on speaker cones, it's important to approach such methods with caution.

Adding fabric softener to the speaker cone is an unconventional technique, and its effectiveness can vary depending on several factors. If you decide to give it a try, I would recommend using a small amount of fabric softener and diluting it with water to create a mild solution. However, it's crucial to be mindful and avoid excessive saturation or direct contact with sensitive parts of the speaker.

Keep in mind that altering the characteristics of your speaker cone may not always produce the desired results, and it's essential to consider the potential risks involved. It might be worth consulting with audio experts or conducting further research to explore alternative methods or solutions that are specifically designed for speaker maintenance.

Good luck with your speaker cone treatment, and I hope you find a suitable solution to enhance your g12h30 heritage's performance! Rock on, Jimmy! \m/
