Boasting 800 watts of flat, full-range amplification power, Laney’s LFR-212 is the perfect partner for any guitarist looking to make the most of their digital stage rig. This active cabinet’s combination of two hard-hitting 12-inch custom drivers and a 1-inch LaVoce compression driver provide you with a stunningly full-range and flat frequency response, allowing you to take full advantage of the limitless sonic possibilities offered by modern modeling and profiling rigs. Looking to plug straight into the PA? The Laney LFR-212 also comes equipped with DI out that features switchable cabinet emulations for authentic miked-up tones. You also get an HF trim knob, aux in, link out, and even a light-up front panel to show off your Laney in style. For those musicians who have fully embraced the guitar’s digital revolution, Sweetwater’s guitarists are in agreement: the Laney LFR-212 800-watt active guitar cabinet is an essential upgrade to take your rig into the 21st century.

Two 12s and a 1-inch compression driver for a full, flat response





If you’re committed to capitalizing on the truly unlimited tonal options presented by modern modeling and profiling gear, the relatively narrow range of a traditional passive cab may present problems. Modern active cabs such as the Laney LFR-212 utilize a far flatter, broader frequency response than your typical vintage-style speaker-in-a-box designs, giving you a neutral, uncolored platform upon which to build your dream tone. How does the LFR-212 accomplish such a lofty feat? A trio of drivers, including two robust 12-inch custom drivers and a 1-inch LaVoce compression driver. This combo grants you a seriously sweeping frequency response, ready to accommodate everything from vintage-style tube amp saturation to all-out djent and grind to effect-laden shoegaze shimmer.





An assortment of functional features





In addition to the LFR-212’s extraordinary sonic features, this cab sports an equally impressive array of utility functions. From the flexible I/O (including XLR/jack combi sockets, aux in, and link out) to built-in tilt mechanism, the LFR-212 comes ready to excel in any environment. Finally, we can’t help but love how Laney built in a switchable light on this amp’s front panel to imbue your LFR-212 with a luminous presence up onstage.
