Help Identify this Epifani cab

I just bought this cab, and it was listed online as a ul2-212, I looked into it here (thanks TB) and other online places, liked the weight and reviews and was pumped to get my first "boutique" cab... but when I started looking at it closer, the badge didn't say ul series 2, and the ul2 doesn't have Epifani written on the speakers, this does, so the back says that it is a T212D, is that a discontinued model that the PS series line is constructed after, then I'm reading an "Original NYC" is just like it, and looking it up, I don't see any models that have a 800w rating... Help please!?!

now with that said, this cab is a total dream, I ran my BMAX-T with CA4 bridged to 1100w through it, it literally took all of it with a thrashing on the open B trying to get it to fart... I lost! it has been like someone took a comforter of my cab, total eveness through all the notes, clear and clean, just like a studio monitor almost, Nick, I'm very pleased to join the "Epifani" club.

Yeah, most likely an original ceramic Epifani T212 diagonal. Weighs a ton, but big low end. Should weigh about 90 pounds or so if it is the original T212 Diagonal (or later NYC model). If it is a UL(I), the weight would be about 48 pounds for that cab.
 
Looking into it, at basscentral.com, they have a used one that lloks just like this one labeled as a "USED Epifani Original NYC 212 cabinet 4 ohm 600 w RMS" ... mine looks identical except that it is an 800 watt rms cab... But this cab is an absolute beast.. Really impressed by how full it sounds... the first live setting is next weekend, can't wait to stretch out it legs...
