Introduction

  • Featuring a single 12″ Eminence® driver and a selectable HF driver, the 8 Ω PF-112HLF is more than capable of handling 200 watts of power. The poplar cabinet design is rugged but still looks great with an Ampeg black diamond tolex and chrome logo. Plus, the integrated side handle makes carrying it into your next gig easy. Match with the PF-20T or PF-50T amplifier for the ultimate, compact, all-tube tone powerhouse—Ampeg Portaflex PF-112HLF.

    Connect the Speaker Output of your amplifier to the cabinet’s Input jack using a good quality (non-shielded) speaker cable. Never use (shielded) instrument cables to connect speakers to an amplifier.
    You can optionally utilize the unused jack as an output/through jack to connect a second 8 Ω speaker cabinet in parallel. This will present a total load of 4 Ω to the amplifier.
