210/115, 210/112, or 212?

I've got a 112, and it is a great stand alone cab. One of these days I'm going to pry the wallet open and add a 2 10 for a bit more punch, but I'm in no hurry.

 

A single 12 with either 2/10 or 1/15 works for me, its a great mix and breaks down to single cab choices very nicely depending on your gig needs.

 

You left out the other popular choice, a second 210. The B handling capacity will depend on the quality of the cab and not the diameter of the speaker. I'd look to step up a little. I have heard very good things about the Neo 212 from Avatar, but I don't remember if low B handling was part of the compliments. Why not enter Neo 212 into the search category and look that way. You will get a lot of GK Neo 212 posts, but that's ok. Also, you might check out the Dr. Bass series. They are not substantially more than Avatar and I have the impression that they are a step up.

 

I play a PR410HLF and it does great w/ a B,but that's not a choice so I would like the 210-115 combo.

 

Just played Bergantinos new HT210s and 112s, together they sounded huge. Nice, fat, quick, and clean tone. Its tough, because the sound you like in your room or at the store is different than what you need at a gig. Need punch to cut through the mix in a live setting.

 

I'd get a 212 but I would get the 212 with Delta LF speakers- theyre better suited for bass guitar. The cab only weighs 75lbs, and really isn't bad to move around since its a fairly shallow cab.

 

what about with a 410? 115 or 212? A 212 give you a little more surface area with a faster response than a 115. I currently have a 410 and a 115. but I'm curious to try a 212 with it.

 

I really like my 212 as a standalone cab. I do hope to add a 210 on top someday, but until then this cab is pefect and LOUD! But if 75lbs is too much for you then I would go with the 112. I tend to prefer 12s over 15s, IMO. The 12s maintain good clarity and punch and also have those thunderous lows that can handle the low B. Your really can't go wrong with any Avatar setup, it's all just about personal preference.

 

there's an aguilar 112 being sold in the commerical marketplace part of talkbass right now for $300 shipped. i'd suggest that.
