The Bogner 212 OS cab?!

[richedie]

Been thinking of selling my Marshall 412 after comparing it to my Bogner 212. Even with the semi back on my Bogner 212, I think it has as much low end or maybe more than my Marshall 1960b. What gives?
I was told 14" deep cabs will have a deeper low end.

This came up because I am buying a Splawn Quickrod and am looking for a matching cab. Splawn said their standard 20" high and 14" deep 212 will have more and deeper lows than their OS 23" tall and 12" deep cab. How so? My Bogner sounds huge like a 412.
I know some guys say high gain tones will not work with a semi open back. BS! I get slamming high gain tones through my Bog 212 with the semi open back!

Other option I have is to sell my Marshall 412 because do I really need a 412 and just get a Stone Age 212 and install Splawn SB65s for my Quickrod.

I was surprised by the depth and power of the OS 2x12; it was easily louder and fuller than a lot of 4x12's I heard. I'd definitely pick one up if I had the chance again.

i love my bogner 2x12 mines closed back and it easily keeps up with a 4x12. its kind of rediculous how the spread is, its so loud and percussive and deep and huge sounding. its just a very beastly cabinet

The Bogner 212 OS is flat amazing. I also have a Stone Age 212C on the way I will be able to compare. But, my PWE and 20th Shiva both sound hugh through my Bog 212OS. I use it with semi open back for killer spread and no real loss in punch. This cab prompted me to sell my Marshall 412.
