Presenting the all new 3rd Power 3P-212 2x12 Speaker Cabinet, this one in their standard Black tolex in the Horizontal configuration.
While it makes for a perfect pairing with their Kitchen Sink Head, it can add clarity and definition to your favorite head from any brand.
The 3P-212 is a dual-chambered true stereo 212 speaker cabinet designed to deliver a full-bodied frequency response that is well defined and in control throughout the frequency spectrum of your guitar tone.
With its patented design, the 3P-212 is the perfect choice when you want your sound to translate in the mix with authority, sounding like it has already been mixed and mastered by the best studio engineers.
Features at glance:
• Patented – Two internal Tri-cab™ speaker chambers eliminate standing waves
• 8-ohm Mono or 16-ohm Stereo operation
• 5/8″ baltic birch enclosure construction
• Closed-back on one chamber, open-back on the other
• Horizontal & Vertical Orientation Available
• Loaded with 2x WGS Retro 30 Speakers
The design goal for the 3P-212 was to enhance the performance and versatility of 3rd Power's legendary Dream 212 cab.
From Designer/founder Dylana Scott: "I’ve been on a kick lately of trying to optimize/align the timing of when your guitar frequencies hit and then exit the speaker and that lead me to a particular design decision to move the back baffle forward by roughly 1.25″."
This means the 3P-212 is a cabinet with a depth of 12-5/8″ compared to the original Dream 212 which had a depth of 14″. This makes the response more immediate.
"When play testing and recording, I find the mid and high frequencies line up better with the lows to produced a supremely focused tone that is crystal clear, articulate and responsive. Every pick attack of your playing is spot-on accurate. The low frequencies remain full and focused but don’t take over the performance." -Dylana Scott
Either Vertical or Horizontal orientation are standard options with the new 3P-212.
Horizontally, the 3P-212 will accommodate the Kitchen Sink 6VEL, DRGN-45 as well as the DRGN100 head without any head-cab ‘spillover’.
Standing vertically, the 3P-212 fits perfectly to the head enclosure format of the Aurora 35 head.
The classic look of the 3P-212 will fit right in with your amp setup and will accompany you on stage with superior tone all without taking up too much room or dominating the smooth sight-lines on today’s modern stage designs.
Patented Design
Crafted from 5/8″ birch, the 3P-212 features embedded triangular speaker chambers to eliminate standing waves and internal reflections. With construction features including isolated speaker chambers (one open, one closed) and a tuned triangle port, the 3P-212 delivers your full frequency response with a clarity and punch that sounds more like a mastered record and won’t get lost in the mix.
The 3P-212 provides a ton of flexibility by way of MONO or STEREO operating modes. When you plug into the left speaker jack, both speakers are linked in mono (total 8 ohm load). When you plug into the right speaker jack you break the link and can now operate each speaker individually for stereo operation (each speaker is 16 ohms).
