Product Detail
The Hartke HyDrive HL112 1 x 12-Inch Bass Cabinet is a game - changer for bassists. It combines the flexibility of Hartke's HyDrive speakers with a modern, lightweight cabinet design. Ideal for demanding players, it can handle any musical challenge. This cabinet features a 12 - inch HyDrive neodymium speaker that can manage 300 watts RMS, yet it weighs only 24.8 pounds. The HyDrive speaker technology uses a composite cone. The straight anodized aluminum inner cone gives smooth mids, while the curved, Kevlar - loaded paper outer cone produces deep and warm lows. A 1 - inch horn - loaded tweeter with a three - position level switch adds high frequencies for a superior tone with clear fundamentals and natural overtones. The HL112 is a front - ported, vented cabinet made of 16mm kiln - dried plywood, which significantly reduces its weight. With a black textured paint, powder - coated steel grille, and chrome - plated corners, it has a robust build. Technical specs include: 1 x 12 - inch bass cabinet, 300W RMS power handling, 8 OHM impedance, a 12 - inch HyDrive paper/aluminum hybrid cone with neodymium magnet for LF, a 1 - inch HF driver, 3 - position HF level control, a frequency response of 35Hz - 17kHz (-3dB) / 25Hz - 17kHz (-10dB), 2 x Twist & Lock and 2 x 1/4 - inch inputs (wired in parallel), a vented cabinet type, solid plywood construction with extensive bracing and dado joinery, a black perforated steel grille, a weight of 24.8lb / 11.35kg, and dimensions of 16 x 19 x 15 inches / 406mm x 483mm x 381mm.
Using the Hartke HyDrive HL112 is easy. First, connect your bass guitar to one of the 1/4 - inch inputs on the cabinet. You can adjust the high - frequency level using the three - position switch on the cabinet. This allows you to customize the sound according to your preference and the type of music you're playing. When it comes to transporting the cabinet, its lightweight design makes it easy to carry around. However, be careful not to drop it as it could damage the internal components. For maintenance, keep the cabinet clean by wiping it with a dry cloth regularly. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this can affect the performance of the speakers and the overall build of the cabinet. If you notice any issues with the sound or the cabinet itself, it's best to consult a professional technician.
