A good replacement for an EA NL210

Ok, I am looking for a good or comparable replacement for my EA NL210. Something lightweight, can handle some power and sounds fantastic. 40 to 50 lbs. Give or take. I do have a single 15 to throw under whatever I get, if needed. Oh yeah, I am powering it with an iAMP800.

The TecAmp s212 is in the same general tone universe as the NL210. I assume you are moving on from yours due to driver failure? I REALLY like the tone of the NL210, but they are just not gig worthy IMO.

The TecAmp s212 is about the same size and weight as the NL210, comes in either 4 or 8 ohms, and has that same 'full but bright tone' and so far, mine has been indestrucable (and I've POUNDED 500 watts into mine at pretty stupid volume). The drivers will start to compress a bit when really pushed and played aggressively, but so far, the cab is solid as a rock.

Very small footprint for a 212, and about 40 pounds. Wonderful tweeter and switchable crossover also.


IMO.
