Jorg really listens to his customers and modifies his product line accordingly, using improved drivers and designs. Kudos! His new 1215L looks very promising. The 1212L has a lot of definition and oomph for a compact 212 cab but seems to be a little shy in the booty while the 1515L is advertised as having a vintage sound in a compact package. (Who would have thought you could make a 215 that small sound good?) The 1215L seems like it would split the difference nicely, fatter than the 1212L but more articulate than the 1515L. The sound and efficiency from these small light enclosures is incredible. The right choice is personal preference depending on the sound you're after, but I was wondering if anyone out there in Schroederland could comment on whether this assessment is accurate for the 1215L? If my current system doesn't meet my needs I may be looking this direction.
I think the compact model is indeed based on the 1212 design, based on measurements quoted on the site. The larger 1215 has a down-firing 15, IIRC...Question on the new 1215L.
On the Schroeder site it shows a 'compact' 1215L that is horizontal... looks like a slightly bigger 1212L. Is there in fact a model like this or is the 1215L vertically stacked with the angled driver on the bottom rather then the side ??

The 1215L is exactly the same size as the 1212L. The vertically stacked one is more of like a custom job. Here's mine with the front fired 12 and folded 15.

What's that weigh?
Wow, I'm a bit surprised Jorg could fit a 12 and a 15 in the 1212 box.The 1215L is exactly the same size as the 1212L. The vertically stacked one is more of like a custom job. Here's mine with the front fired 12 and folded 15.

I think there might be a mistake somewhere here. That box pictured looks like a 1515 box. If you look at the 12" driver its centred to the right. My 1212R cab has both drivers in the middle with no 'real estate' left over.Why surprised? Everyone knows he's a wizard...![]()

Just my observation. I could be wrong.![]()
My interest stems from the synergy with 12" and 15" drivers. Love them both and they seem to always work well together.
Jorge requested a photo for his site and I had Mimi snap this the other day.
I am now officially a Schroeder Endorserdude.I hope that doesn't affect my credibility around here.
