“I bought the HT112 from Music Stand in Detroit. I emailed Mr. Bergantino and he told me that Music Stand had one in stock, he even emailed Music Stand that I was coming to try it out. I was looking for a portable cab but didn’t want to sacrifice sound quality. The HT112 is just awesome!!! Very smooth overall frequency response. Lows are very PHAT, fast, focused and clear, never muddy, highs are very smooth, never harsh. Low mids and high mids are very rich, never honky. The crossover unit is probably the best in the industry. I noticed that all the jacks are sealed with silicone so these holes will not effect the sound of the cab. I have a Sadowsky 4 string, and run it through an Eden WT400, this combination can create pretty much any sound you can think of. This cab has no coloration, especially in the mids like some other brands. I would recommend this cab to anyone. Yeah, it’s a little pricy for it’s size, but it’s worth every dollar. It will blow away any 2×10, even 4×10’s. There are some other high end stuff, but Bergantino is definately the best sounding and the highest quality cab you will ever find in the market.” Marcus Morizuka / Detroit Michigan

“Jim & Co, I’m not sure how you guys do it, but this HT112 I just received from Bass Central sounds a lot bigger than it looks. It also makes my Lakland 5 string kick ass. The articulation and warmth are amazing and it never sounds boomy, plus it won’t kill my back! I will spread the word to my other NYC bass playing friends.” Thanks for the SOUND, chuck b NYC

“Hi Jim: Although I love my HT310, I couldn’t resist picking up (2) HT112 cabs! Comparing them to the SWR Bass Monitors – there is no comparison. The clarity and punch are amazing for a cab of this size! I will use these for the “country club” gigs we do quite often. I can put one behind me and one in front of me angled up – or simply stack them. I have a 2 channel amp and can’t wait to try both 112’s with the 310! Hope I don’t hurt anyone! As I did with the HT310 cab. I bought the HT112’s without even hearing them. I went (largely) off of comments on talkbass.com and the recommendations of several music stores. Thanks Jim! P S – If my old Eden cover didn’t fit the HT310 so well, I’d get your cover. It is a shame to walk in to a gig with everyone thinking it’s an Eden cab under the cover!” Bob Miller

“I have had the opportunity to use a few of Jim’s cabinets and they all performed exceptionally well. Jim Bergantino is that kind of person that can do anything he puts his mind to and he has put his mind into building the 2004 BEST audio systems on the market.” Jim Stinnett New Hampshire

“Hey! My name’s Jae and I’m writing from NYC. I’ve been on the hunt for a small cab for my small club needs, and your HT112 fit the bill to a T. It’s, IMHO, the perfect combination of size & tone. I love how it’s soooo light and easier to carry than all the other 1×12’s. Getting in and out of taxicabs, up and down the many flights of stairs of my apartment building and subways, and setting up my rig, has never been easier. Also, I love how the slick neon green logo and silver grill look killer with my EA iAMP350. Very tasteful in an otherwise boring black-on-black cab world. And the fact that the tone is to die for is just icing on the cake! Your cabs are just unbelieveably vibey that’s round, full, and deep all glazed with a hifi sheen I just can’ seem to get enough of. After the Bergs, everything else just seems stiff and burpy with no character to speak of. Its a travesty, not to mention, a low down dirty shame your 1×12 didnt get the top tone honors in that BP review. Also, thanks for the super quick drop ship that you set up with my dealer. And a HUGE thanks for offering to let me use a loaner that you originally sent to Euphoria Studios! Speaking of which, I had rehearsals there not too long ago and have fallen head over heels with your 3x10s they use there. I was sooo amazed at the service you were willing to do for me, its made me a bonafide Bergantino user. Hopefully in a few years, when I’m rich and famous, I can become a Bergantino endorser, too! hehe…” “Keep up the incredible work and can’t wait to get that Bergie cover for my beloved 1×12!”

“Jim, thanks to Alex and “Bear” at ‘Century Music’ here in San Antonio, TX., I am now the owner of the best bass cabinet I’ve ever heard. My new HT310 has all the lows and more than enough highs.{the casters come in handy rolling thru parking lots}. The chrome grille really stands out on a dark stage. I’ve owned Ampeg , Acoustic , Sunn , Eden and Hartke cabinets for the last 23 years and none of them come close to your product. Also, none of the other manufacturers ever called to say “thanks” for buying their cabinet.Thanks again for building the best!”
