Big sound from a small (but heavy!) package
I'm sure most people in the market for a 10" replacement guitar speaker will have done the usual research, found all the forums and read all the conflicting comments about what's supposedly a good speaker, only to read a contradiction a little later on another forum about the same speaker, and end up totally confused.
This is where the Eminence website can be a great help, in that you can listen to the actual speakers and decide which one suits your playing style best, and this is what I did before choosing the Rajin' Cajun for my Fender Super Champ XD -- and I have not been disappointed! Together with a pair of JJ 6V6s, this has opened up the sound of this amp and brought it to whole new dimensions, making it sound like an altogether bigger amp, while retaining a nice vocal quality that doesn't sound nasal or boxy at all.
Be aware that this is a heavy speaker, but it's also rated at 75W and so makes an ideal companion for any small valve amp, in that the amp can be totally over-driven without any fear that the speaker can't cope.
Overall this has been such a success that I'm now considering a companion Eminence 12" Wizard in an external closed cab for the larger venues. I cannot fault the build quality and even the little touches like the included Eminence badge which I now proudly display on the front of my hot-rodded Super Champ!

Fantastic
I put this speaker in a small 10" cabinet that had a Chinese Celestion 10/30 in it. This Raging Cajun is sooo much better. I use it with an Orange Terror Stamp on my board for practice purposes. The sound really comes alive now. Great definition and with a 75 watt it is prepared for louder amps as well . Very happy with this upgrade.....

Great upgrade speaker
I bought this speaker initially to upgrade the stock speaker in a H&K 18w Tubemeister. It made a big difference, but not as significant as when I replaced the speaker in my Fender Super Champ XD. The SCXD stock has a great sound, & a WYSIWYG amp, but it lacked a bit of "umph"! ...the RC sorted that lacking. It gives a lot more quality body, and more bass thump at the same time retainingt the Fender cleans also. I bought the amp as a replacement for a Blues Jnr., but before the speaker change the XD was only a house amp, after the change its worthy to take to small venues because the higher speaker efficiency gives the amp more volume. I haven't yet tried it miked up but the sound quality is inherently there so no reason not to use on a bigger scene using mics, ...and I now prefer it to the FBJnr.

nice upgrade
very solid upgrade for my super reverb reissue. running with 2x ragin cajuns and 2 x jensen c10k , nice texas overdriven sound. compared to stock alnicos, they are balanced and warm while retaining the iconic fender chime

Good speaker
Used as a replacement to improve the sound in a Roland Cube 40XL. I thought it gave a great improvement of the sound, with a good bass response and clear treble and midrange..

a really solid speaker
bought this to replace a celestial vintage 30 that had died. has held up well and didn't take to long to break in (or for me to get used to the new sound).

Excellent!
Fantastic all-round guitar speaker! It's only 10 inches, but sounds much bigger. Put it in my 15-watt guitar combo and it's really cuts thru the mix. Especially love bell-like highs!
