Hughes & Kettner TubeMeister 112 Box

At this point I have tried multiple 112 speakers including Friedman and Orange. My bandmates complained about the sound from the Orange PPC112 cabinets, too raspy and zero bass. I briefly tried a Friedman it was OK but nothing special for the price tag which is triple the price of the TM112.

The TM112 is quite simply superb, it has a decent amount of bass, smooth highs and quite an agressive mid range from the Vintage 30. Also from a weight point of view they are actaully closer to 12kg which makes them one of the more lighter 112 cabs on the market.

There is only negative with this cab and that is the quality of tolex. It's not overly robust and you will get imprints from the feet of heads and equipment that sit on top. However given the price and sound quality I can easily overlook this minor shortcoming.
