Got a Nova 112 combo. I was going to add a 112 cab under it or get a 212 cab. Has anyone tried the 212 loaded with a G12H30 and a Vintage 30 with the Nova? I know I really like the G12h-30 with the Nova but don't know how the Vintage 30s going to sit.(?) Maybe I should order a 112 loaded with another G12h-30. Thoughts??

I swapped the G12H30 in my Nova for a Vintage 30, and it worked out very well for me. I bet it would sound great with a G12H30 / Vintage 30 cab.

Thanks Dave! That's what I needed to hear. I've had a couple amps that the Vintage 30 sounded fantastic with and a couple not so much. I think I get a Z 212 loaded with a G12H30 and a Vintage 30. Thanks again for your input.

I don't have a Nova, but run a Therapy with a slant 2x12 with a V30 and G12H30 and it sounds great - the Therapy is a 6L6 amp and runs a tad dark, so the v30 brightened it up a bit and gave it nice growl. I don't know how the Nova compares, but the 5881 is basically a ruggedized 6L6 so it should sound great.

The Z-Best cabinet ships stock with Vintage 30 and G12H30 and was great with every amp I played through it. Jes sayin.

Thanks again for your input. Ha, realized this was a pretty old post! I'll leave my comment anyways for informational purposes... You planning to use the 212 in place of your internal speaker? Z-best is 8ohs so you COULD run it in tandem with the internal speaker -a 3x12 setup, pretty cool!!! However you'd be getting half the power going to each CABINET, so it would not be divided equally to each SPEAKER in this case. You may be aware of that, but just an fyi

Pinging this topic again, since I’m wondering how the Z Best would work as an extension to the nova combo. A previous poster said it would be a 3x12, but power would split 50/50 to 1 (internal) and 2 (z best)? Would this sound good? Anyone tried? I guess internal could also be disconnected, but then why Z Best and not just a 1x12 underneath with second speaker choice? Thanks.
