I recorded a 3-chord sample of each of these speakers the other day so I could compare them quickly rather than plug-unplug cords, because I found that I liked whichever one was hooked up at the time. Note that the Wizard is in a small, sealed enclosure, the Cannabis Rex in a large pine open-back, and the RW&B in a medium-sized birch ply open-back. To me the Wizard sounds much better sealed than open.
Played through a ~45W 6L6GC PP amp at full power to get some speaker compression (except the 120W RW&B), the Wizard was 124dB, CR 122dB, RW&B 120dB.

Hey, thanks for the sound clips comparison! I use the Red, White & Blues for my Tweed BluezMeister. I've used the Cannabis Rex for the Tweed Overdrive Special & this recent D'Mars OD Special 5879.
I like both of those speakers.
with respect, Tubenit

Out of these speakers I only have experience with the Wizard, which I found very loud and very bright. Too much so in my Club Deluxe but it worked well in my modded Fender Deluxe II Reverb.

The Wiz is exactly that: loud and bright. Have you tried it in a small (as small as .8 cubic ft !) sealed enclosure? It sounds better than open-back to me. It's also improved with enough wattage through it to wake the dead - once it starts to compress a bit itself.
