Genz Benz Focus 112: is it braced like a Barefaced?

Play both and see which one YOU like. If you don't like the Focus cabinet, then don't buy it. It's really quite simple.

 

I'm not clear what the question is.
Is the GB Focus cabinet braced? I'm pretty sure the answer is "yes".
How does the Kappalite 3012HO fit into this story? Were you planning on replacing the driver in one of these cabinets with the Kappalite, and if so, why?

 

If that's the case, the Focus cabinet is likely not tuned close enough for a 3012HO.

 

I think you would be better building a new fearful cab if that’s what you want

 

I doubt the cabinets tuning is close enough to gain much (if any) performance. I would sell it and buy something that's more suitable for your needs.

Agreed, or find something already built that can be tried before buying.

 

OP, if you read the threads on this forum, one theme will stand out: stuffing some random driver into a given cabinet is a recipe for failure. Cabinets are designed to work with a specific driver, at least the good ones are.

 

I know this is a old thread, but I have two GB focus 112 cabinets, that’s my small rig but they handle the gigs I use them for, imho they sound great. I bought them because of their Weight and price. The gigs that I have PA support they are all I need, but the do well on their own at small bars an hotels If anyone knows where I can get another one please inbox me, I’d love to run three or four with my Shuttlemax 12.0

 

Do you know if the Fender Rumble. Abides are similar to the Genz Benz Focus cabinets. Someone told me Fender bought out Genz Benz, and I was wondering if the used a similar design fir their cabinets.

 

They do not. The Rumbles have pretty much nothing in common with the old Genz Benz cabinets which were...and still are...quite stellar.

 

@mmbongo --- might want to see what is coming April 7...
