I confess I am always experimenting, but I just installed a EPS 12-C in my NV112. My excuse was to reduce weight. Anyway the amp sounds great. I am pleased, but still experimenting with settings. I did have a problem installing the speaker, in that they put a fairly thick gasket on the mounting surface, and on top of the speaker rim. Double thick. And, the mounting studs were too short and I couldn't get the nuts on. So, I shaved off the top gasket, which really serves no purpose and the problem was solved.
So I saved about 5 lbs. with no loss of tone. Maybe gained some. |

| Had the same gasket problem and same fix. Locked it in the bsaement for two days with my iPad playing a continous loop of Jerry Byrd and Herb Remington steel to loosen it up and hopefully absorb some talent. Mixed results. It is well broken in but still sounds like me. |

| John is your change working? Is yours a NV112? And, it occurred to me that some amps mount the speaker through the front, hence the gasket on the backside and the frontside. |

Jim:
Mine is a NV112 and works fine. Been a long time so I don't which side I took off but the remaining gasket is betwnn the rim of the speaker and the cabinet.
Will have to move some stuff and look in there. |

| John, Don't do it for my benefit. I know now how it fits. I once put o 12" BW in a Peavey Bandit 65 and the weight of the BW began to tear up the baffle, so I moved it to the front side and it worked out. |

Most of my fiddle playing friends are using the EPS C speaker in their 112’s and they love them. I’m running TT 12’s in my 112’s a d they sound great!
