Jim Bergantino has officially announced his new product lineup, and the cabs will be shipping towards the end of this month!

I just wanted to give everyone a quick heads up about what cabinets will be available and how much they cost.

The two existing NV models continue to live:

NV-610: $1349 + $100 shipping
NV-412: $1349 + $100 shipping

The NEW cabinets belong to the new HD series. The common features are NV tolex covering, black corners and ceramic speakers. The new models/configurations are as follows:

HD112: $649 + $50 shipping
HD210: $769 + $50 shipping
HS212: $999 + $80 shipping
HD410: $1099 + $80 shipping

I'll pass along further technical details and pics as they become available. Jim B. tells me a pro photographer just left his shop this morning, so some official images should be available within a few days or so.

I'm placing my opening order for these new cabs today, so I am now opening up for pre-orders if anyone wants to reserve one of these first cabs that ship. A 20% deposit will let me place your name on any of them!

Yee-haw! I'm super excited at the prospect of having Bergs flowing again, I can't wait to hear these new cabinets!

In the meantime, I've cleaned up the Bergantino Cabs and Bergantino Accessories sections of my site. All of the stuff that is obsolete has been removed (except for the one HS-210 cab that I have left in stock). There is a lot of "Coming Soon" floating around these sections, but I'll fix that as photos become available.
 
Here are some specs I'll call tentative. Jim B says he'll release official specs in a few days, but that these should be really close (if not exact).

HD112
DIMENSIONS: 18.5"W x 15.75"H x 15"D
WEIGHT: 43lbs
FREQ RESPONSE: 40Hz - 18kHz

HD212
DIMENSIONS: 18.5"W x 31"H x 15"D
WEIGHT: 79lbs
FREQ RESPONSE: 40Hz - 15kHz

HD210
DIMENSIONS: 18"W x 22.75"H x 12.5"D
WEIGHT: 52 lbs
FREQ RESPONSE: 44Hz - 15kHz

HD410
DIMENSIONS: 22.75"W x 25.5"H x 15.5"D
WEIGHT: 85lbs
FREQ RESPONSE: 44Hz - 15kHz
 
Good to see that he's back in the 112 business! Looking forward to hearing one of the new generation 112's.

Ditto!

If these dimensions are correct:

HD112
DIMENSIONS: 15.75"W x 18.5"H x 15"D
WEIGHT: 43lbs
FREQ RESPONSE: 40Hz - 18kHz

...then that means the height of the cab is higher than the width, which is quite different than the HT112ER. That type of configuration sounds more like the Audiokinesis Thunderchild. Hmmm...
 
Bah! I probably screwed up again... Jim's quick note regarding specs was that the HD112 is the same size & weight as the HT112 ER. I just copied the specs from his website, and I now see that he is inconsistent in the order HWD vs WHD... silly me, I should have been more careful.

He is NOT reconfiguring these cabs in any big way. What was horizontal is still horizontal, what was vertical will still be vertical. I'll go back and try to get it right one more time.

Sorry for the confusion, everybody! My bad!
