I´m looking into getting a 2x12 cab to use with my XTC, for situations when the 4x12 is too cumbersome to use.

I´ve been looking at the Bogner 212C or 212OS but I´m a bit worried that it´s too big (not that much different in size than the 4x12).

Any recommendations for a small/lightweight 2x12?
 
I know their not what you hear about on here a lot, but my Framus 2x12 sound great! They're usually pretty cheap if you can find one.

Best cab for my xtc 20th el34 is Bogner 212CB
 
I've been using my Fryette (but older so VHT labeled) 2x12 Fat Bottom for many, many years with stock P50Es. I've loved it with every amp/rack I've ever had. It is very projective though, as in not very room filling which some people don't like.
 
Splawn 2x12 w/creamback 65's. I grabbed one to use w/BE100 for smaller venues. Sounds great. Plus can be ordered in different colors and grill cloths.
 
I use a Carvin Legacy 2X12 with my Ecstasy. It's an open back with Vintage 30's. Nice and compact and sounds great.

Bogner
Besides, shits gotta match!
Definitely gotta match!
Or you could check out the CAA 2x12's? They sound pretty good with the Bogner stuff & are made by the same builders
 
I'm using a V30 loaded Shiva 2x12 open back with my XTC. I also have a 4x12CB which i leave at home these days, too "Beamy". The Open back fills the stage without tering heads off, which means I can crank it more too. As mentioned the CAA 2x12CB is also great sounding with the XTC.
 
I'm getting good results with two Mesa 1x12 Three-Quarter Back cabs (w/ Celestion Black Shadow 90W).
I stack two of them for a full 4x12 effect and bring only one when I want to travel extra-light.

When I had my XTC101B I used the Bogner OS212. Sounded awesome!! I actually still have the cab and it is a great 2X12 cab, but a little on the heavier side compared to a standard 2X12.
