Cab Questions

What do you think of the Genz-Benz 2x12's? Any good or bad experiences? I'm considering trading in my practice amp and my 4x12 for a couple used ones - my local guitar shop has a couple in for around $325 a piece. I've heard only good things about them, but haven't had a chance to plug into one yet. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Also, are there any other 2x12's that you guys recommend/swear buy? I'm open to other suggestions.

Edit: I should probably include my current rig and what I play.

Peavey Ultra Plus 120w head
Peavey 412MS cab
bunch of pedals
Jackson SLSMG with 85b/81n
Play mostly thrash metal/metalcoreish stuff - think Soilwork, Unearth, Children of Bodom, that sorta thing.

Desertdweller, I did check out the site. They had some nice stuff, but I thought that for the money I'd spend on one of their cabs ($300 with shipping roughly) it would be worth it to check the gflex2x12 out. I went up to the store today with my amp, plugged in, and was extremely happy with what I heard. The cab produced a good, tight low end, the mids were there and very smooth, and the highs were not harsh. Even when cranking my amp the cabinet laughed and said "is that all you got?". Needless to say, I traded in an old Peavey practice amp that I never used and brought the cab home. Here it is with my amp on top.



I can't wait to see how it holds up in practice tomorrow night,but my hunch is it will be just fine .
