Display MoreThis is a little beyond my expertise, but I can make some observations...
• A guitar speaker behaves differently from a driver in a studio monitor, for example.
• Theoretically, the KPA (or a modeler) is aiming to replicate this difference in behavior.
• It follows then that the goal of an FRFR solution, is to reproduce audio as faithfully as possible -- the same goal as a studio monitor.
• However, the Celestion F12-X200 is NOT designed with this goal. It's designed to behave similar to a guitar driver.
So I'm not sure why the F12-X200 would be a better solution than a quality FRFR, except for one reason: most FRFR drivers simply don't work well in a guitar cabinet, and since there are more guitarists moving from amps to modelers than moving from modelers to amps, and since those guitarists have a lot of unused cabinets sitting around, Celestion sees a market for driver that performs well in a guitar cabinet.
These observations on the F12-X200 make a lot of sense especially when dealing with cabinets when migrating to this modeling / profilling platform.
Speaking for myself, I would actually leave my cab aside migrating to a standard FRFR solution (Monitors), however getting a speaker like that F12-X200 would make a lot of sense to keep the cab.
Btw this K12H is not available here .. in practice is there any video or some report of the experience of someone using them for that purpose?
