The Switchback 212 is a rectangular cabinet with a pair of premium Celestion Vintage 30 loudspeakers, each housed in its own triangular chamber, supposedly eliminating the standing waves and boxy sound inherent in conventional cabinet design. In addition, the Switchback 212 features removable vent lids on the back, allowing the user to achieve either open- or closed-back operation – or a simultaneous combination of the two.
The Switchback 212 is designedfor use with either of 3RD Power’s tube amplifiers – the hand-wired HD100 classic valve amp, or the new rack-mount SV3015 stereo valve amp. The cabinet handles 120 Watts of mono power (or dual 60 Watt stereo). Impedance is 8 ohms mono/16 ohms stereo. The Switchback 212 measures 29×20.5×14 inches and weighs 62 pounds.
The 3RD Power Switchback 212 cabinet is being introduced at the Winter NAMM Show in Anaheim, January 14–17, 2010. 3RD Power products will be shown exclusively by TSI Distributing in Booth #3397, Hall D.
