Marshall cab for recording

Hey..
I play and record metalcore, metal generally. But!
I use a 4x12 cab for my Marshall AVT150 head. And I thought; by connecting a 1x12 cab, I could crank the volume on my amp without tearing down the walls and break glasses.
So, I was thinking about the Marshall 1922 1x12" cab.

Does anyone have experience with it? Does it work for metal recording? And I can't find what speaker it uses.

Thanks.

110db is 110db - whether it's coming from 1 speaker or 4.

depends on what you can find. for metal, i'm not real sure you are going to like the sound of a recorded hybrid style amp. Most of the metalcore bands I get in are using a 5150 or 6505 and it is PERFECT for that style. Had one band with a JCM2000 and it was a little out-of-place.

I would recommend getting something with Vintage 30s. I would skip the 112, and check Craigslist for a cheap 412. I've been seeing Marshall 1960As going for $250.
