Is there a decent 2x12 for under 400 bucks?

[Lampshade1973]

Wanna grab another 2x12, have 400 or less to spend, what are my options?

There's all kinds on Craigslist.

Save another 200 bones and get a Bogner OS 2x12. Then sell your existing 2x12 and use the money for hookers and blow. You'll thank me later.

The size difference between oversized 212s and typical 412s is so small that I would usually own the larger cabinet. The extra weight is mostly speakers because these oversized 212s can be 70-80lbs. You can usually find a decent 412 more often and cheaper than 212s on Craigslist too.

I got 260$ in my newest 2x12.

Bought a new enclosure from Ebay and loaded with 2 Eminence Govs that were left over from when Krank went out of business. Notice the black baskets instead of red:

Used Mesa is probably your best bet. Bought one for $250 once.
