Has anyone checked these out? I have a Matrix FR212 now and I'm thinking of adding one of these new FRFR cabs from Avatar, the G212 TRADITIONAL FRFR. 500 watts RMS @4 or 8ohms. They are $729, over $200 less than the Matrix FR212 price. I want to stand up to my other guitarist's 4x12(s), who also uses Avatar (V30s/G12T-75s) and I know the Matrix does it well. Nice customization options, also. Alternatively, I could go with a 4x12 on one side and FRFR Matrix on the other (not bloody likely). I'm curious if anyone already has experience with these new cabs, of if I'm missing anything before I take the plunge. Thanks.
I use an Axe Fx II XL+ and Matrix Gt1600fx power amp.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
NEW AVATAR G212 Traditional FRFR cab. Full range Flat response cab for Kemper and other profile/modeling type amps.
This is the Traditional 212 FRFR diagonal cab with two custom U.S. made Eminence deltalite Neo 2512s that are wired in parallel to make a standard 8 ohm cab. It is also available in a 4 ohm version. There is a Foster one inch compression horn tweeter and a full 12 db crossover with high quality mylar capacitors crossed over at about 3.9 KHz. It’s nice and flat tuned down to 60 hz. and goes up to 16,000 hz. The tweeter has its own volume control to increase or decrease the high frequencies depending on the size of the room or subjective tonal taste.
It’s rated conservatively at 500 watts rms and the in/out jackplate has two 1/4 jacks and two speakons and you can go in our out of any of them which is nice for daisy chaining out to another cab. It also comes with all of our custom color and grill cloth choices.
Cabinet Details:
All six sides of this cabinets are 13 ply birch 3/4 inch thick
The G212H Custom cab is easy and portable and goes great with combo amps, heads and rack systems.
The cab is built with the front and back board dadoed into the surrounding top, bottom and side boards making it very strong.
These interlocking side joints give extreme strength to the cab which is where we often hear, “Built like a Tank” in our reviews. The speakers are rear mounted with T-Nuts. It has two 1/4 inch and two speakon in/out jacks (for daisy chaining with another speaker cab) mounted on the steel input panel. It has protective nickel corners, large recessed steel bar handles and sturdy rubber feet. All guitar cab grills are secured by screws, not cheap Velcro. The dimensions are 24″ H x 24″ W x 12″ D. Weight is approximately 50 lbs. One year limited warranty. Speaker cabs are not sold on a trial basis and are not returnable.
