Tailor-made for the Modern Bassist

Although a ten-year-old could probably carry the Hartke HyDrive HD112, there's nothing lightweight about its performance. This 300-watt cabinet delivers clean output and even response, thanks to its two-piece composite cone. A double-roll curvilinear surround prevents over-excursion, yielding extremely smooth mids, as well as clear fundamentals and natural overtones. Experience hard-hitting, chest-thumping low end and superior projection, by virtue of the HD112's round-wire voice coil and vented cabinet design. Beyond that, this road-ready bass cab features solid plywood construction with extensive bracing and dado joints, as well as a perforated steel grill and steel corners. The HyDrive HD112 is loaded with every feature a modern bassist could want.

Two-piece composite cone delivers great sound

The secret to the HyDrive HD112's clean output and smooth response is its two-piece composite cone that combines a straight anodized aluminum inner cone with a curved, Kevlar-loaded paper outer cone. At Sweetwater, we're impressed by the smooth mid-band response, clear fundamentals, and natural overtones exhibited by this bass cab's round-wire voice coil and vented cabinet design. The HD112 sounds great, whether you use it by itself or as part of a larger rig.

Built tough for maximum performance

The Hartke HyDrive HD112 can take a beating. It's built from solid plywood with extensive bracing and dado joints. A perforated steel grill and steel corners add to this cab's durability. The HD112 is rock hard and rigid, yet it's light enough to carry one-handed. A recessed steel handle makes transportation a breeze. On top of that, this bass cabinet's innovative design delivers superior projection with minimal energy loss.

Hartke HyDrive HD112 Features:

  • 2-piece composite cone delivers clean output and even response
  • Double-roll curvilinear surround prevents over-excursion for smooth mids, clear fundamentals, and natural overtones
  • Round-wire voice coil and vented cabinet design exhibit hard-hitting low end and superior projection
  • Road-ready design features solid plywood construction with extensive bracing and dado joints, a perforated steel grill, and steel corners
  • Light weight and recessed steel handle make transportation a breeze

Great sounding little cab!

This cabs are great, they're part of my main rig.

I usually do small to medium venues with a jazz trio, and as a monitor at church.

For my personal needs using one of this cabs @4ohm with a Markbass Nanomark 300 head is all I need. They sound great, crisp and clear mid and highs with very nice fundamentals, and also has the flexibility to attenuate or turn off the horn. I've also done bigger venues just adding another HD112 and selecting 8ohm on each cab.

They're easy to carry with the recessed handle for short distances, for a larger carry another handle would've been nice, but it's not really necessary IMHO.

Great Little Cabinet!

I bought two of these and I couldn't be happier. Lightweight and super punchy. Has a 4 or 8 Ohm switch. I tried them at a gig with both stacked, top one with horn at -6 and bottom with horn off. It did wonderfully with guitar and drums. I have them powered with the TX600 Head. Very nice, lightweight, and portable gigging rig.

Excellent bass cab

I got one of these to pair with a tx300 I already had. No regrets. This little cab sounds RICH. It can rumble and punch, wonderful balanced tone.

Great Punch

For the money, this is the best choice. I picked up 2 and conect with Aguilar TH500. Super sound in all frequencies. Don't be afraid - You will realy like the sound and feel.

Tight and Punchy

Articulate,lightweight(not in sound!) Crisp highs and punchy lows. Paired two of these with a GK MB-500.
Replaced a 700RBII, neo 212 and neo 115. While that system sounded great with biamp/headroom, this sounds even better and doesn't need as much headroom because it has such presence. Also picked up a MB-200 and a MPB 115 extension cab. Since the Hartke can run at 4 ohm I can run one with either head or both at 8 ohm, or add the powered 115 on a bigger gig. Complete versatility. Solid construction,great looks.
Adjustable horn attenuation is nice esp. when running two together.
