It will work just fine. In fact, you may like it so well you may want to leave it in the amp.

I tried a 1203-4 in my 112 and could tell very little difference in the sound. Not nearly enough to offset the extra weight, so I put the Blue Marvel back in.

I agree mostly agree with Darvin. It adds unwanted weight, but I also hear sweeter highs and smooth mids that the stock speaker does not have. Every time I A/B the two, I choose the amp with the BW over the stock amp. Both are good, but I alway's seem to be looking for good plus differn't for a signature sound.

If by swaping out the speakers (whitch i had to any way to send it in to mike)and just has sweeter hi's, i may have to swap out the other one too. I don't mind carrying around another few pounds of sweetner to a gig if it makes me smile at the end of the night,besides, we have a trailor full of heavy eqip we have unload and load any way ,whats another few pounds groina hurt.

Yes, the 1203-4's were used in those cabinets. I have a pair of 1203-8's that I've using in my rack stereo system.

I have a Nashville 112 and wouldn't really consider putting a BW in it. I bought it for the sound, but also for the size and weight.
