My second Hathor 1203 is on its way (bought the first one used here and immediately had to order another from Duke)- I can't wait to hear what comes out of two of these babies, along with my new D-800.

That is a fantastic combination! Two 1203's is just about my favorite rig at the moment (and has been for some time), and they definitely pair up well with the D-800.
I think it was your praise of the 1203 that initially put it on my radar. It's probably safe to say now that my cab quest is over, at least for a long while.
It's such a big little cab. A second one would be super perfect. Compared to the 1505 and 1855 it is certainly the most balanced and with the ports plugged seems to be the warmest. It also LOOOOOOVES effects.
Concur, but haven't tried the d800 (yet
). But prodigy, m700 and tc bh800 don't suck.These new 2 ohm micro heads have me thinking about a third somewhere down the line, cuz, you know...there's probably a reason.
After more consideration, here's another vote for Dukes proposed option. The option for a stand alone 112 which I can pair with a 4 ohm 115, or pair with another 8 ohm 112 will get me to crack open the wallet. Full steam ahead Duke!
some auditory explorations from last night. Recorder behind the band so sax is buried but the flute is out front and there was much noise to be made. D800/H1203

Pictures of the new 1505 . One with the 1203 .
The flute is loud and clear, and I can hear the sax, but...I can't make out a recorder in there.
*rimshot*
actually the recorder player was out in his van banging a groupie during that song. They get all the chicks...
Sorry...
Ugh. I wish I hadn't heard (about/of) Vanilla Fudge and Frank Zappa right now...
Well guys based on the specs, the opinion of Tom Bowlus, and the recordings of Nostatic, I'm pulling the trigger on a Hathor 1203 stack and will be pairing them with the Mesa Subway.
My two ton Glock rig is up for sale (much to the relief of my back) and Duke you have an email.

Congrats! I hope to try a 1203 stack soon! (Paging @nutdog).
I didn't even bother to put my two-ton SWR rigs up for sale. Good luck with that! Mind as well try and find another use for them, lol.
Seems like the tide of players going to the high-end minis is really moving in.

Fortunately, I only have 2 SWR Goliath III 410s left, they didn't sell, so I have an 810 stack for my non-gig band, I'd love to turn them into a Audiokinesis 112 of some sort though.
