But for a Swart AST the gold was a really bad match IME.

According to the chap who designed them the gold is intended to sound like a 40year old worn in blue.
The Fane alnico is nice but I had about five before I got one that didn't rattle. The 100w Jensen Blackbird is also good.
And Celestion still make alnicos over here. They make others here too, normally when it's the first run of a new speaker, once it's proved to be popular they make them in china but still use UK cones. My Greenback 10s were UK made but now they are made over there.
The Chinese made versions of speakers that have been made over here are a little brighter when new according to my source at Celestion, and they don't know why! They are more consistent these days though, the UK made stuff had much more variance in tone. I suspect they have tighter QA.
