I bought this cab to go with an SWR 350X and after a couple of modifications it sounds great. I replaced the wood screws holding the speakers with t-nuts and added a brace across the front between the speakers. This tightened up the cab considerably and cut down on the vibration. Dave at Avatar was way helpful and offered to exchange the cab if I wasn't happy but the thing sounded so good I just reinforced it a bit. I would do bussiness with Avatar again if the need arises. My sound with the B212 is punchy like 10's but more body. The tweeter is harsh if you crank it to much but just barley turning it on gave me crisp highs that cut nicely. I've giged with the B212 a half dozen times and have dialed in great tone every time.
