Description
Laney CUB-112 Cabinet
The Laney CUB-112 is a compact, open-back cabinet engineered for articulate midrange response and natural breakup. Its lightweight construction and manageable footprint make it equally suited to studio tracking and small-room monitoring, while the open-back design ensures the cabinet doesn't overpower the tracking space with bass bloom.
Design & Build
Built with an open-back configuration, this cabinet maintains clarity and prevents bass accumulation that enclosed designs can introduce. The compact dimensions of 430 × 520 × 230 mm (16.9 × 20.4 × 9") and lightweight 10.4 kg (22 lbs) body make it practical for moving between studios and session spaces without sacrificing structural integrity.
Recording & Mix Integration
The 1 × 12" custom HH driver delivers focused, articulate tone with responsive dynamics across the frequency range. Operating at 8 Ohms impedance and rated for 50 W, this cabinet pairs seamlessly with both tube and solid-state amplifiers in that power range, producing controlled output ideal for capturing guitar tones in the studio while maintaining definition in the mix.
