Thanks man! I knew you had these speakers so that's great information.

No sweat. Also I’m certain even Celestion mentioned that 20w labeling is just for historical accuracy and that they are still 25 w and even more in most cases. I find them pretty damn robust and can’t say I’ve even heard them REALLY start giving out. I’ve used the OG PV 5150 at basically MAX volume and run it like ED did when he had the PVs which is basically absolutely cranked. And there’s definitely that change that a ton of volume brings but I honestly feel it’s the power tubes compressing rather than speakers. Likely a little of both but I’ve put that amp and 5153 thru them at full tilt… Loud as an old Marshall…? Not quite I guess. But the old PV and the el34 are certainly no slouch in the volume dept
