This is without question one of the best 12 inch speaker cabs in the business. Also one of the most expensive. But what is that saying? "you get what you pay for." It also includes a 6 inch speaker and 2 dome tweeters. An exceptional full range cabinet. Good for all your small to med sound level gigs. Two would be pretty much a complete setup for any gig, and at 38 pounds not too bad on your back.
Handles are a little lower than most cabinets at this size but not a bother to me.

This cabinet has made me a fan of the newer "Neo" speakers. You may have to dial in more bottom but you are able to get that. But it has sweet lower mids that sound so good when pushed. Makes it real Hi Fi sounding. Very clean and to the point. The highs are more present with the newer accugroove products. Still its not as pronounced as some of the other tweeters like eden or swr or even bergantino uses. But its very clear and sweet sounding. Not harsh at all. Slappers will enjoy it as well as Finger style players. A clean and powerfull little cabinet.

Reliability : No Opinion
Had it for about 2 monts. No problems. Would love another as I think it may be better than having the Whappo Jr which I also own.

Great Support. Will always answer your emails and phone calls. Can't get better support from a small company.

Overall Rating : 10
An excellent choice when seeking a light small cabinet. One of the best in the business. Expensive but worth the money. Again if you are playing at louder levels you will need 2 but they are light and easy to carry. Like most 12 cabinets, they have no wheels. I would love to see that in more of the 12 cabinets in the future.

I purchased the T112L with neodymium magnets in the 12" woofer, which reduced weight about 3lbs to 38lbs. The unit is very portable, with robust recessed handles built into the box. Attention to detail is excellent, materials are top notch (they should be at this price) and overall the unit appears very robust (nonetheless, I opted for the fitted cover to keep the unit pristine). I power this with a Thunderfumk TFB550, and toghether this gives me the cleanest sound I've ever heard from a bass.

I play a Ritter Roya 4, Modulus Genesis 5, and Variax 700. Playing the Variax through this unit provided the greatest revelation. Until my Accugroove cabinet, I had always felt that the Variax left something to be desired. But the Variax models are indeed first rate, and tone, sustain and playability all seem to improve with th Accugrooves. If you are looking for a very clean sound then this is the cabinet. It sounds more like a bass coming out of your stereo rather than an instrument cabinet. The downside is that the strenghts AND weaknesses of your technique shine through. I find myself playing at a lower volume yet I can be heard. I feel it does not get in the way of the other frequencies on stage, yet, I can still feel the bass. This is the best cabinet I have ever played. I tried many and appriciated their qualities also.

Robustly built; no problems so far

I bought this as a package with my Thunderfunk amp. Mark Wright responded quickly to my emails, and even picked up some unexpected charges when I had a problem with the shipment. Their customer support is first rate

Overall Rating : 10
This cabinet has clarity like no other. It doesn't have the overwhelming bass of, say, and El Whappo, but I am not looking for that. Rather I wanted a clean, focused sound that would let me tune in timber and punch from my Thunderfunk. This cabinet in my opinion is perfect while being portable enough to take anywhere

This cab features two attenuators located in the back; one for the treble and one for the mid-range. However, when the attenuators are cranked the setting is flat, which doesn't allow the user huge flexability. Speakon and 1/4 inch jack capable. Built tight and tough.

Sound Quality : 8
has the BEST highs I've heard out of any cab, smooth and round with no chime or bell. The mids and especially the lows aren't very gut bustingly powerful but have a good smooth balance. It does have a nice smooth overall feel to it with fast defined notes all over the spectrum. Really a great sounding cab.

Reliability : 9
It's been dependable for me and I've run a lot of stress through it. I did manage to melt the voice coil on the 12 inch woofer, but got it replaced for free

Customer Support : 10
Very friendly guy I talked to on a number of occasions. Sent me a replacement woofer for free. I bought it used and they renewed the warranty for me, I think it's a five year warranty. Very nice company, I wish them luck (sendmefreeshitsendmefreeshitsendmefreeshit)

I've been with this cab (1-12, 1-6, two tweeters in one cab) as my soul unit for about a year and I love the sound. I play a Warwick through an SWR and the sound is very deep and defined. The cab is small and light weight but built like a firehouse. I've had a number of sound guys say to me after gigs they loved my sound, they didn't have to mess with the board. I do wish I were running more juice through it, it's rated 8 ohms and 400 watts and I've heard it being pushed- sounds great. I would eventually like to run it with a 15 as well but it does the job well for just a 12.
