You probably won’t be able to fit two 12s as well, but you can do two 10s.

Any thoughts on the EVM15L speakers?

a 2x12" and 2x15" looks impossible from my photo of the cab's interior. A new mounted baffle would have to be done.
Take advantage then of the eight mounting holes . M6 and a smear of Loctite?
It is considered 'bad form' to front mount guitar speakers but always seems to me to be the most convenient way to go and least likely to get a driver through the cone!
Opinions?

I once had a Mesa bass cab with a front-mounted EVM-15 which was held in from the factory with woodscrews! Utter crap - most of them had pulled their threads so it was barely hanging in the cab. I fitted standard M5 T-nuts and bolts - M6 is probably overkill given that there are eight.

"I think you're much more likely to slip and put a driver through the cone on a front-loaded speaker"
No mate because you can lay a bit of ply across the chassis to protect it. Did this all the time with hi fi woofers since you CAN fix a guitar speaker cone but put a driver through a roll surround and it is buggered.
Also, if you HAVE to solder the tags I stuff the back of the cone with kitchen paper. Same reason, one blob of hot solder on a neoprene surround? Eff'ed!
I'm all for overkill!
Dave.
I never thought about putting a protector across the front - good idea. It’s decades since I put a driver through a cone, I’ve only ever done it once! Just took it as a lesson to be more careful - I hold the business end of the driver in place with my other hand. Seen plenty done by others though...

Ha! Just thought, front loading also means you are the 'right' side of the magnet, that can give you a bum steer!
