Harley Benton G112 Celestion V30 5-stars Reviews

Great cabinet

So so cheap but great sound. I use it with a laney iron heart studio. Sounds great for the cleans and dirty channels. Not sure how they do it but amazing value for money.

I have used many different cabin but Harley had a really delicious taste with a long time I found the tone that I would recommend to anyone looking Celestion speaker was very good.

Best Cabinet for this price!!

This is awesome cabinet for this price, you cant get better than this for 100 EUR range.

It is perfect for home use, and small gigs. Im using this amp with Ibanez TSA15H all tube 15W head and it is good combination with Celestion Vintage 30 speaker.

Many people say Vintage 30 sounds harsh, but I wouldnt say that. To me this speaker sounds round and warm. And I think it is already getting better after few hours of playing, after speaker gets broken in.

Cabinet looks good also, it looks much better in reality than in pictures.

Tolex is thin, but for home use it is not problem, because I dont move it a lot.

Great Cab

This is just unbelievable value, you can't buy the celestion speaker on its own for this price. And it comes pre wired in a cab, how awesome is that. Makes my orange micro terror sound much better.

I don't usually bother to do ratings but feel on this credit where credit is due brought this with a Bugera G5 and for the money it's very very good indeed. Solid sounds great and I would recommend without doubt. Don't think you can go wrong for the money

Excellent buy

This is a great speaker cab in all aspects for me, I use it with my Crate powerblock and it gives my Gretsch all the presence it needs, fantastic clear tone (I play mostly blues), well built, more than loud enough for rehearsal and small/medium venues, real quality. Unloaded cabinets £150, the Vintage 30 speaker itself £70 and the total package for around £80, it's a no brainer. I also recorded through it via a mic and was very pleased with the results, it sounds better every time I use it, cannot praise it enough.

Great quality

I can't recommend these cabs enough.

I have one of these & the 2x12 version & have plans to get the 4x12 soon.

They are as good as the big name cabs that retail for twice the price.

I still don't know how they sell a loaded cab for the same price as you would pay for the speaker inside.

Well recommended

I bought this Harley Benton G112 Vintage along with an Electro Harmonix 44 Magnum Poweramp and Palmer Pocket Amp to put together a lightweight and versatile and loud gigging rig.

I am really happy with it I have to say. The cab is worth it just for the celestion speaker it houses but to house it in a great cabinet makes it a no brainer, absolutely fantastic. I can use this 1x12 with Palmer and EH44 to provide me a nice stereo rig with my Fender HRD..It all sounds awesome spread about the stage with the HRD on one side and this Cab set at the other side of the stage.

A great Cabinet for next to nothing ;-) ...Recommended

Amazing quality.

So, I had been looking for a cab to use with my Orange Micro Terror for a while. The original Orange matched speaker was fine but only really useful for bedroom use. The amp itself is capable of so much more. After a lot of deliberation, I decided to give this cab a go... Wow, just superb! The amp growls like a caged tiger unleashed. For the first time I heard the Micro terror as it should sound. The celestion speaker is a perfect match and has volume, presence and 'meat' to spare. Absolutely recommend this speaker cab without reservation. Good build quality, smart and does the biz! Easily beefy enough for a small venue gig. Buy it, you won't be disappointed.

Harley Benton G112 Vintage

At the beggining I was not sure about buying this cab but price convinced me to go for it. I have heard that Harley Benton stuff is not bad and now I can confirm that. Cab is very well built. I could not say that about my other Laney cab which is a disaster... ...hmmm maybe not a disaster because sounds very good but wood quality and tolex are not the best. HB cabinet is very strong and quite heavy. Tolex is as good as my ENGL amp's one. Celestion V30 speaker does the job but is not one of my favourite speakers. I bought it just because I know that will be very easy to sell Celestion speaker itself. I want to sell it because I am Eminence The Governor and The Tonker fan. Harley Benton cab is a great product for amazing price. Do not think to long like I did... ...JUST BUY IT AND ENJOY

Heavy Duty Bargain

Fabulous for the money, especially whilst the Euro is low against my English Pounds. The cab is very heavy, made of the good stuff, and it just works. Such an improvement over the speaker in my 1w valve combo. A bigger sound, much smoother, and with real bass 1watt works just fine in a small room. It is nowhere near as bright as the 8 inches speaker in my Blackstar combo, so I need to adjust the tone on my Tele a little to get the right sound. I love this cab, and the low price is just crazy - nothing comes close.

If you're after open back V30 cabinet then this is a nobrainer. I guess it could look a bit nicer or have a closed back option but the quality of the build is great and it does exactly what it's supposed to.

Perfect for amatuer

Got this to pair with my tiny terror head. Having owned the combo previously I can tell you his sounds pretty similar. Good enough for rehearsals and the occasional gig. Was dubious about partially closed back but it's a fairly big cab which helps. Only down sides for me are that there is no 16 ohm option so not easy to create a stack with and the handle doesn't seem the strongest. I don't care what it's made from nor whether it's actual tolex or a substitute either as for the price you can't go wrong. Quality wise I'm not going to be hauling it on and off the planes all over the world so it's good enough for me. If it did break I'd still be left with a decent speaker which will only get betters it breaks in. Not sure why you'd pay double for an extension cab when you could just have this. Worth every penny

Excellent

Really good well priced product. Construction is fantastic and the clarity of the sound is superb. I have this for home use with a Hayden Lil Mofo 2 watt head and the 2 seem perfectly matched. Much better than the speakers I have used previously in various modeling and solid state amps.

It is the best for price...

Firstly it is great that you can buy this cabinet for the price of celestion vintage 30 speaker.I use it with hughes&kettner tubemeister 18 head and they are perfect match with each other.I think there is no need to buy matched hughes&kettner tubemeister 112 cabinet with it while harley benton makes nearly the same thing for the price of 1/3.

But keep in mind that it is has not that top quality tolex material and it feels that it can torn out easily but on the other hand if the cosmetics are not priority for you and if you will use it stable like at home or studio it is the best for the money you can buy out there in the market.It has nice bass response i tried it even with irig&jam up pro and this cabinet made it sound fuller and added a good bottom end.

Can't be beaten for price!

Excellent quality cab, the Celestion Vintage 30 speaker actually costs less to buy separately than to buy this cab with the speaker in! Go figure!

All in all, top notch!

Harley cab+ Celestion V30 = AWESOME!!

Awesome cab at an even better price. It sounds awesome with my Blackstar HT-5h and the build quality is great. The fact it has a celestion vintage 30 is just fantastic. If your looking at buying a Celestion V30 speaker on its own, the price is the same so why not have the cab too! You won't be sorry with this cab. Its great and just KILLER when the speaker has broken in!!

Great Sounding Speaker and the Cabinet Basically for Free!

Celestion Vintage 30's are great sounding speakers for lots of different genre's and normally cost around £80 in the UK so to get this speaker Pre Loaded in a cab was a no brainer. I was looking for a small portable cabinet to go with my Orange Micro Terror for Small to Medium sized gigs where I wanted to take a more portable rig. This is the perfect combination for me. The Orange Micro Terror is SUPER LOUD and sounds great through this classic speaker.

Great Value for the money

I have also the 2x12 which is also closed back, same speakers. I like that this one is open back, I get a fuller and nicer sound but less bass. This cab is easy to carry to the gigs and sounds great for recording or to play live. Perfect match for my Tiny Terror

Just perfect

The performance/price ratio on this thing is incredible! The quality is very good, with nice metal corner protection. The box is solidly constructed and has a half-open back that makes it perfect for home use with a small amp head (I use mine with a Blackstar HT-5RH). Seriously, this speaker cabinet practically costs less than just buying the speaker separately! Just perfect.

The reason I won't give five stars for features is that I would like it to have an extra connector jack so you can connect several of these to an amp with only one speaker output.
