Cab for the SWR Electric Blue head

[Jaromir]

I own the SWR Electric Blue head and I really like the sound. I used to run it through Hartke 2x10 cab and it sounded really nice. However, these days I would prefer a small cab (probably 1x12), which I can carry with one hand... Also, the cab should be rather efficient, as the head is just 120W into 8ohms (160 into 4ohms). Any experiences, ideas?
Thanks, Jaromir

I am a big SWR fan and I have some Dr Bass cabs that I'm very happy with.

The basic 112 is a good light cab. Mine is neo and 4 ohms, which cost a little extra at the time. I have the 3-way, called a 1260 Slant Front, but the 2-way would also be good. Also consider the 115, mine (again in 4 ohm neo) is a one hand lift. PM or email me if you have specific questions.

Also note, SWR are said to have a line of lightweight cabs due late next year.

I think a lot of people will suggest a Wizzy 12 cab...lightweight, very efficient, sounds good.

Have a look at the Bergantino 1-12 as well. I own a Baby Blue head and it works well with it.

When I auditioned the Bergantino years back, I also liked the EA Wizzy. I have also liked the Phil Jones suitcase when I tried it. I'm sure any of those would be fine.

considering your location maybe you can find something less expensive here (if you understand the funny language ):

your profile says you own a Flite 1x12 and GK MBX , whats wrong with them?

The MBX sounds fine but it's not loud enough. The Flite gives nice and warm bottom, but the upper register gets quite midrangy. Both these cabs are rather unefficient, so I'm looking for something which gives me more sound out of the amp.
Looks like the Wizzy 12 M line would do the trick.
Thank you for all your responses!
