Laney IRF-112 Guitar Cabinet

Laney IRF112 — Compact 1x12" Ironheart Foundry Cabinet for Stage-Ready Tone

The Laney IRF112 is a straight, closed-back 1x12" guitar speaker cabinet built as the matching extension cab for the Ironheart Foundry series. It centers on a custom HH Designed H1260-8 driver for focused response and full-range projection from a portable format. The IRF112 is the right choice for guitarists who want a compact, road-ready cabinet that pairs cleanly with matching Ironheart Foundry heads without sacrificing tone or stage presence.

What Sets This Cabinet Apart in the Foundry Line

A custom-designed HH H1260-8 12" driver is voiced specifically for the Foundry series rather than a generic off-the-shelf speaker. The closed-back MDF cabinet is wrapped in hard-wearing vinyl and finished with stainless steel metal corners — a combination that protects the cab through regular transport and rehearsal use. Side-mounted heavy-duty bar handles make loading and positioning straightforward, while a single 6.3mm jack socket keeps patching simple.

Power Handling and Driver Performance

A cabinet that runs out of headroom flattens dynamics and chokes the air moving through the cone. This model is rated at 60W RMS with 120W continuous and 240W peak handling, giving real-world headroom for high-gain rigs and loud stages. The HH Designed H1260-8 driver is built for serious stage volume and balanced projection across the frequency range, so chords stay defined and lead lines cut through the mix.

• Power RMS: 60 W — comfortable headroom for compatible Ironheart Foundry heads
• Continuous / Peak Handling: 120 W continuous / 240 W peak — extra margin for transients and high-gain peaks
• Speaker Configuration: 1x 12" HH Designed H1260-8 — a single 12-inch driver custom-voiced for the Foundry series, delivering focused response and serious stage volume across the full frequency range

Construction and Road-Ready Build

A guitar cabinet has to survive being loaded into vans and stacked on stages week after week. The enclosure uses 15mm MDF composite wood construction in a closed-back format, which tightens low-end response and focuses projection forward toward the audience. The hard-wearing vinyl covering and stainless steel metal corners protect the box from scuffs and dings during regular gigging.

• Enclosure Material: 15mm MDF composite wood — rigid, resonance-controlled cabinet walls
• Construction Type — closed-back format that focuses projection forward and tightens low-end response on stage
• Finish: Hard-wearing vinyl with stainless steel metal corners — gig-ready protection against scuffs

Dimensions, Weight, and Connectivity

This model keeps the rig manageable without feeling undersized. At 431mm high x 541mm wide x 351mm deep and 15.4 kg, it sits comfortably on stage or in a small rehearsal room. The 8 Ohm nominal impedance keeps speaker matching straightforward with compatible Ironheart Foundry heads, and the side-mounted bar handles plus single 6.3mm jack socket make setup fast.

• Dimensions (H x W x D): 431 mm x 541 mm x 351 mm
• Weight: 15.4 kg — manageable for one-person load-in
• Impedance: 8 Ohm — straightforward pairing with matching Foundry heads
• Connectivity — single 6.3mm jack socket plus side-mounted heavy-duty bar handles for fast setup

Who the IRF112 Is Built For

The IRF112 is the right choice for guitarists running Ironheart Foundry heads who need a compact, road-ready 1x12 extension cabinet that keeps the rig portable without losing stage presence. Players building a head-and-cab setup for club gigs or rehearsal rooms will find the closed-back format tightens low end and focuses projection forward. It also suits players who already own a Foundry combo and want to add a matching extension cabinet for fuller coverage on larger stages.

Laney and the Ironheart Foundry Story

Laney Amplification has been building guitar and bass amplifiers in the UK since 1967, when founder Lyndon Laney built his first amp. The Ironheart Foundry series extends that legacy into a more affordable, portable format, with matching heads, combos, and cabinets designed to deliver Ironheart-style tones at a more accessible price point. The IRF112 carries that philosophy into a compact 1x12 cabinet built for working guitarists.
