GR AT212 Slim (26lbs) v Bergantino NXT212 (49lbs)

[Harlequin74]

Hi all

 

is anyone using this cab as their single cab solution? I am deciding upon either this or the Berg NXT212…….

 

your thoughts and experience very welcome!

 

My back has GR, and my heart says Berg!

 

thanks,  Mike

If you're spending that kind of money, you must try them. What we like may not suit you.

I haven't tried the GR AT212 so can't give you a tone comparison but do have the Berg NXT212.  The Berg is an easy one person lift so would suggest discounting weight as a deciding issue.

 

Tone-wise I think the NXT212 is great.  I'm using it with a Bergantino B|Amp in a fairly loud rock covers band and have found it easily capable of projecting the volume and sound that I want without going through our PA.

 

If you have, or are considering, a B|Amp then the NXT212 makes even more sense due to the speaker profile capability in the amp.

 

As with anything, try before you buy if possible.  That said, I bought the NXT212 without trying it based on reputation and previous experience with the B/Amp and AE410 cab and it has lived up to my expectations.
