The best little boom box in town
I bought this having already found and bought the twin speaker version from someone second hand, and I was so impressed with the twin version I didn't even hesitate in ordering one of these for my smaller shows and gigs I have upstairs.
First outing with it I was playing to around a 100 guests in a room that would easily hold 150/200, I was not sure how I would get on but WOW this little box is heads and shoulders above all other 12" single cabs I have used in the past including (DB Tech, EV, Alto) since that first gig I have used this many times and found it to be really good far better that its size would lead you to think.
Now it is loud, and is amazing but its is only a 12" speaker so do not expect a huge wall of sound to hit you but it is way way better than all the more expensive units I have tested in the past, and so light to boot I am a big guy but can just about manage this as a one handed lift, the handle though are well placed for a nice easy carry to the upper floors of a venue.
I plan to buy a second unit when they return in stock giving me the best of all worlds as I have said I already own the twin ver so stacking two singles will give me a large balanced rig when the needs arises to wake the dead.
in short would I recommend this YES!
EDIT Sept 2015 I now have two of these and a dual unit so happy great unit used 2/3 times a week all fine so far thanks Thomann :-)

Amazing speaker, beware the size is different!
The height, width and depth are in the wrong order. As you look at the front of the speaker the true dimensions are Height- 400mm, width- 460mm, depth- 520mm. So, the depth is the longest measurement meaning it will stick out into the room more.
Apart from this, absolutely amazing subwoofer. Incredibly powerful, clear sound, and a bargain for what you get. If you need an active subwoofer, definitely get this one!

Happy sub. DJKobicus
have tried previously branded subs , very expensive and had never been happier until i bought the box Pyrit 112sub A. indeed as a mobile dj, these subs has brought so much joy in my gigs. very punchy, deep bass and easy to carry with lesser weight as compare to others. I initially bought two and i was pleased with the performance so i bought another two to make it four. this is fantastic. right now im looking to buy the same brand tops to match. i will recommend to all djs because its very powerful and reasonable price to compare.

Amazing, high quality & compact
I have to say this is by far the best subwoofer I've ever come across for a number of reason. I've used a lot of expensive, big brand subs & speakers in the past and nothing quite compares to this. 12" subwoofer with a build in amp for this price?! The sound is superb, I can't even get it to clip even at high volumes. I've purchased a second one and I'm using them with 2 10" tops, I've had a number of venue owners commenting on the quality! Absolutely amazing, highly recommended

Very impressed
Very powerful base for small to medium size events. You could really hear the power of this little baby if you put the lows on maximum, or during a sound check. Definitely can get a festival vibe during a small event with a couple of these. Purchased mine as part of the Small Venue Set and am totally surprised for the value I got for the money.
The sound quality is impeccable, no weird vibrations coming from the speaker. Can be carried by one person, although a strong one.

Deep and powerfull
I've had active 12s before, but this box is in another league.
- It goes very low for a 12"
- It's very tight and punchy
- Loud as hell
Cons:
It has a little, yet quite noisy, fan inside that is always on.

Remarkable little box
I was weighing up buying this, or The Box Pro Achat 112 Sub A, and I'm glad I chose the slightly more powerful Pyrit 112 instead as it was well worth it.
For a 12" speaker, this thing packs a punch! I'm using it with a pair of powered 12" tops (500w RMS each) in a function band and it blends very nicely. I'm able to put kick, bass guitar and keys through and provide enough low end for small size venues (around 100 people) quite comfortably. It's not the kind of thump-you-in-the-chest bass, but reinforces the whole sound and just makes everything sound better.
I've not managed to get it to peak so far, and it's actually quite quick in its response to note changes. It's also small and light enough to carry with one hand (although you need to be relatively strong) and packs very neatly in an estate car with full PA and drum kit.
I think I might buy another one soon!

Amazing sound from such a little box!
I bought this little sub to try and the sound quality has really blown me away! I wholeheartedly believe that you will not get better for the price anywhere! I am a wedding DJ and have started doing bigger events and this little thing is perfect! The bass is better than most 15 inch subs that I have used that cost double the price of this one. You would never think that this was a 12 inch speaker. It's early days yet but the 3 year warranty is reassuring. I can't wait to try the 2 together!

worthy box
I bough 4 pcs of this active subs based on the good ratings and reviews on them and indeed they are as per the other ratings.
The team at thomann did great job with this machines and am looking forward to getting a pair of its bigger brother the twins 212 subs.
The order was shipped with urgency and excellence, it took only about 8days to be shipped from German to Uganda
I tasted the speakers the same day and the output was excellent and so far it has done one event and the compliments were good.
Highly recommended.

Great small compact sub
A purchased a pair of these small compact subs.
-Great additional punch for small to medium disco's
-Lightweight
-Ease of handling with well placed handles
-Good build quality
The only downside was me was I would have preferred to have a crossover where I can choose hi-pass option instead of 10'',12'' and 15'' option. But for the price point these are sold at I have no complaints.
Very impressed for a reasonable price, great handling, small package.
