I've had one more head than I've had cabs for a little bit now. I came across this one on facebook marketplace for a silly deal, $200.00. It's an Avatar Traditional 2x12 with a Celestion Vintage 30 and a Greenback. Plugged my Marshall Origin 20 into it and goddamn. That is a LOUD rig now. Perfect crunch though. Sounds absolutely killer with my Duo Jet.

Wow. Great deal.
I had one years ago with my bandmaster head and it sounded great. Only got rid of it when I found an original (albeit bassman) matching cab.
The avatar cabs are total quality

Nice, Id like them more if they were finger jointed though.

Nice! I have one of their oversize 2/12s that I love. I think it’s a similar design to the orange cabs. Sounds huge!

After playing with it for a few days it's definitely a bit more "full range" than the Egnater 1x12 (with a Celestion 70th anniversary) I was using. Much less directional too. But my god, the bass response. I had to turn the bass on my Marshall down to 2.5.
