They seem to be perfect for what I need, I'm thinking of going for the 8ohm cab ( i use a pre amp/power amp set up). If gigs get bigger and better I might go for two 212.
PS:
shinhoman - what amp do you use to drive this? and did you try it out before buying it? just curious.[/quote]
I have a hartke ha5000 that runs at 250watts per side at 4ohms. I didn't realise at first but to get the full 500watts you need two 4ohm cabs...
I didn't try it, I bought it blind from thomann.de and i love the sound. Excellent clarity and none of the harshness i get my my swr triad.
