I bought two cheap tower speakers (like what you would connect to a receiver), and I’m curious what the difference is between the 8″ driver of regular speakers and the drivers in guitar amps / cabinets.

Btw, I’m thinking about refitting (probably just one of) the towers I just bought with new drivers because one of the midranges doesn’t work. I intend to play loud guitar sounds with my Ibanez through a GT-10 -> receiver.

Thanks.
