Gimme your best 112 Cab Recommendations (this thread again)

[Al Kraft]

Bergantino , CN112 now replaced by the HDN112

IMO Bergs are hard to beat unless you're looking for super cab performance.

I've got a GK and love it. I do think Bergantino and the genzler bass array are a little better, but they are a lot more expensive

I have Duke's AudioKinesis Thunderchild 112 v1 - its remarkably light and sounds strong, detailed and accurate.

This recent TB thread is throwing some enthusiasm at Guitar Center's Accoustic BN112, for $230. The thread starts off slow, but contains more gooder information on later pages

Schroeder.

I love my Bergantino - it's the 212, but along with being lightweight, it gives a huge sound. I tried it up against my Eden (410) and my vintage SWR Henry 8x8... Love both of them, but the berg outdid them hands down.

TL806 with an EVM-12L in it. Legendary guitar cab, and totally decent for bass if you're not trying to go crazy loud or deep. I really wanna get a second one for a portable/reasonable bass rig that isn't two 15s or a fridge.

Hands down, the Schroeder Mini 12+L is the best single 12 I've ever played through! Also ticks boxs for that 'mid hump' response.

I had a GenzBenz neo 2x12 for a while, I know the singles would be great if you could find them!

I know the GK neo seems to be a favourite round here but I would recommend the Eden 'E' series EX112 on lowest price point and bang for buck!

Simply love my Mesa Subway 1-12. Fairly light, looks great, and sounds perfect. Had an Aguilar SL112 for a brief stint and was quite dissapointed. So many other good choices out there though.

Schroeder can solve all your problems.

Berg CN112. GREAT cab. Love it.

Vanderkley!

 

[grenadilla]

the Ashdown RM112 is only $300 and it is deep enough to stack 2 and not tip over.

Avatar SB112 works for me

If small and light is something of a factor, nothing beats the barefaced one10.
It is the smallest 112 cab i know of, mainly because it has a 10" speaker.
But unless you send it in the ring against the best 12" cabs money can buy, it will hold its own against any production 112 cab out there.

You asked about Aguilar. I play Aguilar 212s. The GS line is slightly midscooped (which is easily EQ'ed) and a bit stronger in the lower registers if you like the lows dry and direct,
while the DB line has a more oldschooly vibe with low mids more present. Both are rather on the heavy side, no neo magnets and really solid build, 17-ply mahagony - excepting the SL cabs that are built to be lightweight.

Another 112 cab i really liked was the Tecamp 112. Really loud, light and super direct feel.

yall have some expensive taste haha

That's what you get when you ask for the best!

I've used Bergs AE and CN cabs and now use Barefaced Super Compacts. There are some great choices out there these days.

 

[ThinCrappyTone]

I have 2 Genz Benz NEOx ported 12 cabs. Super light, sound great. They're discontinued, but there are used ones floating around in the $300-350 range .

Mesa D800 w/ their matching 1x12 cab.
