So, I picked up the G12T-75s off of Craigslist.. 2 of them for 50 bucks.... Just the deal I'd been waiting for.. The guy was cool enough to let me use his tools to install them at his house so I didn't have to do it at our rehearsal spot.. They sound f-ing awesome!! What an improvement!! I'm using a H&K Cream Machine as a pre-amp/distortion unit.. Using the JCA22H by Jet City as well.. I'm pretty sure I'm settled on this sound.. From my observation the C12n's were all mid.. I actually had to turn the mids to about 10 o'clock on the knob with the C12ns.. With the T75's, I can run the mids at about 12 o'clock and they sound perfect! The highs are creamy and smooth.... What I'm most impressed about are the lows!! Finally! Ample low end!! And that's what I've wanted this entire time.. Bass no longer has to be cranked.. These speakers are VERY responsive.. Lucky for me, they are already broken in.. I love 'em and I suggest anyone looking for a heavier sound in the T&R 2X12 to give them a try.... These Jensens may be sought after in certain styles of playing.. But they don't do well with distortion in my opinion.

What do you gents think I can sell those jensens for? They are in perfect condition.. They aren't vintage(made in Italia).. Looks like they aren't even broken in yet.. The outer edge of the speaker cone is quite stiff.. 8ohms each.. I see new ones for between 80 and 100 bucks..
