The V22 has a nice clean sound that just can't be beat. The V5 will make a nice practice amp though.
I know this sounds ridiculous, but hook a musical signal through your V5 and leave it looping the tunes all day when your out. It's doesn't need to be loud, just enough to get the cone moving a bit as they are quite stiff when new. The Eminence speaker after a few days of that will break in and sound better. I did the same with my Vibro-Champ 8" speaker and it made a world of difference.
