Nashville 112 Replacement Speaker

Post by Roger Robinson »

I'm looking for a different 12" speaker to try in a Nashville 112.

Has anyone used the Warehouse ET65 or ET90 in a 112?

Use a TT-12 (Travis Toy) they are fantastic in a NV-112. Rich and full. I have one with a TT-12 and another with a Telonics 12. Even though they both work great. I prefer the TT-12 My 2 cents
Just north of the Weird place, south of Georgetown

Roger..I currently have the Warehouse 'CS12/C' (paper cone) in my Nashville 112 and like it better than any speaker that I have previously tried (a partial list includes the Eminence 'EPS-12C', the Telonics, and the factory installed Blue Marvel). Recently installed one in my Marsh 'Mello-Verb' amp with equally satisfactory results.

I had a NV112 that I bought used with a Telonics TSNEO12 speaker. Sounded great. I had a TT12 and uninstalled the Telonics and installed the TT12. The Telonics won with a little smoother highs and a little more lows (but not boomy.

The speaker cabinet can make a difference with speakers. Related to the NV112 where the Telonics won, I bought a (new) Quilter TT 12 amp. I installed the Telonics in the Quilter Block Dock 12 enclosure and the TT12 won with basically the same reasons the Telonics won in the NV112.


I also found, experimenting, that either a different speaker or the chip mod in the NV112 but not both. Both sort of made it "sterile" sounding.

Jack, I've wanted to try the chip mod on the 112, but not sure I could do it. There's nobody around close that I know of that could work on it.

If you have an older made in USA model the chips are on sockets. Not too hard to replace. The Ken Fox chip mod kit is a H... of a lot cheaper than a new speaker.

Newer 112's made in China do not have chip sockets, the chips are soldered to the printed circuit board. Possible to change these but a major task and special SMT soldering/desoldering equipment needed.
