I have been the proud owner of a Cure for less the 2 weeks and I’m loving this amp. It’s such a great compliment to my Maz18 and Jaz. I have no issue with the Z-12 but was curious to try a few other speakers. After doing a few speaker swaps I have settled on an Alnico Cream which has been fantastic in some amps and not worked at all for me in others. For instance, the Cream didn’t work for me in the Jaz. But in the Cure it added some smooth mids that the more American voiced Z-12 is lacking. I am a mid heavy player so just loving the Cure with the bass and mids almost dimes and the treble backed off to about 9 o’clock. I think this speaker will be a keeper in this amp. My OCD would not let me keep the black knobs so I ordered a set of cream knobs and just for fun, went with a green jewel lamp. Makes the amp pop a bit more! What a great little portable rig this is and so fun to play at bedroom volumes too.

I was going to add a photo but not sure I can just attach one to this post That would be convenient, but unfortunately, you can't. You have to use a photo hosting site. A bunch of guys here, me included, use imgur. It's free and pretty easy to use.

Thanks guys. I will look into ingur. I gave up on Photobucket a few years ago. Yes the cream knobs really look great. So happy with this amp. It’s nice and compact but not boxy sounding and has all the punchy mids that I crave in an amp.

I swapped the Z12 back in tonight and I think it will be staying. The stock speaker just seems more versatile and not as coloured as the Cream I. Such a small cabinet. I ended up pairing the Cream with my Z28 Head and Z 112 cab and that is working out very well. I have to say though, the Cure really makes the Z28 setup kind of redundant and is a lot more versatile. I am shocked at how good the Cure sounds with the tone stack bypass engaged. I could easily own this amp with just the three volume controls on the front and not miss the eq at all!
