Is your bass amp in need of a sonic overhaul? If so, then you can’t go wrong with new bass amp replacement speakers. Sweetwater stocks a generous selection of top-shelf speakers from leading brands, including Celestion and Eminence.
Why take our word on the subject? Our staff of professional guitar techs has swapped out countless speakers in virtually every type of guitar and bass amplifier. Here are some valuable tips to help you make the best bass amp replacement speaker buying decisions.
Speaker Voicing
Every bass amp replacement speaker has its own unique voice. Voicings range from the mellow and round sound favored by soul and R&B players to the aggressive midrange that funk and modern rock bassists prefer. We recommend reading customer reviews and manufacturer literature to ensure the type of speaker you’re considering is voiced for your preferred style of music.
Speaker Magnets
The type of magnet used in a bass amp speaker also plays a significant role in its sound.
Ferrite magnets are by far the most common type of speaker magnet. While they can add substantial weight to an amp or speaker cabinet, they also provide a substantial range of tones.
Neodymium is less common, but this lighter metal is capable of moving faster than ferrite, allowing it to express upper mids and highs better. Neodymium bass speakers can significantly shave down weight on a heavy 4x10 or 8x10 cab " sometimes by as much as half.
Speaker Compatibility
When it comes to compatibility, there are three things to consider. First, you’ll want to match the impedance of your original bass speakers. Any mismatch is likely to yield undesirable results and may even damage your amplifier. It’s also important that you match or exceed the wattage of the speakers you’re replacing as you may blow the driver in a speaker with insufficient power handling. One final consideration is whether the speaker you’re looking at is intended for a sealed or a vented cabinet.
