and from that thread here is the info he listed.
Avatar LineX 212:
AS NEW never gigged Avatar LineX 212 cabinet. 4 ohm.
This is the new AVATAR ® B212 Neodymium bass guitar cab.
The new lighter Eminence NEODYMIUM MAGNET 12s. (New Dynamic Metal) Neo magnets are much stronger than standard ferrite magnets so less is needed to achieve the same magnetic flux...therefore lighter. The Neo cab is rated at 500 watts. The B212 NEO has great low end and punch. The U.S made die cast aluminum framed Neo 12s also have a little more mids and fantastic upper mid clarity. Neo cab weight is only 56 lbs !
Eminence now makes custom LF versions of their Neo Deltalite2 12" Neo just for Avatar so the new B212 goes even lower in frequency response than the previous Neo 12's. The new custom Neo 12 LF's have a longer cone travel (Xmax) than the stock Eminence model.
The Cabinet features rugged 18mm voidless 13 PLY BALTIC BIRCH PLYWOOD construction with strong rabbet corner joints. The front and back boards are dadoed into surrounding top and side boards for extreme interlocking strength plus it has front to rear bracing. The Foster high frequency compression horn tweeter is the most popular tweeter used by some of the best companies in the bass cab business.
The cab uses the new full 12 db mylar crossover network for both the tweeter and bass speaker sections for a more accurate response and for better power handling. There is a tweeter volume control on the back panel.
The cabinet is covered in the LineX Heavy Duty coating, has protective corners, large recessed steel bar handles, full face steel diamond pattern expanded metal grill, front slot port, steel input panel with one Speakon connector and dual 1/4 inch in/out jacks.
Dimensions 27H x 24.5W x 16.5D.
The only thing that has changed is that when I got it there was a slight rattle. I assume shipping got some things loose.
I had to take the tweeter out and re drill holes for it bu slightly turning the tweeter. You can not tell it has been turned. This was Avatars suggestion. Also I added some material to keep it from vibrating against the line X material.
Its a great sounding cab, however as you can see I am trying to load some things off for my wedding.
