I'd add the Ampeg B115E in there - you can drive a hard bargain with MF if you cite the prices at Cream City Music, or buy used. They sound good.

What about the Avatar or Dr Bass stuff. I bet one of those Avatar 2X12 cabs would sound great with a 2X10 on top.

I used to own one of these Eden Nemesis 210's and sold it because it didn't have the option to add an external cab.

According to Eden's website http://www.eden-electronics.com/prod...ies/rs210.aspx this amp is already running at 4 ohms. You probably can by-pass the internal speaker, and run another 4 ohm cab, but not together.

JMHO

it actually does have the option... i've checked in to it an have ran a couple of cabs on it. it actually splits up the power between the 210 and whichever you are running. on the rear panel it states for a ext speaker to be no lower than a 8 ohm.

Personally, I'd go for the Hartke 115BXL. It's roughly the same as the B115E.

2x15. I've seen most for under $300, and got mine for $150.

Well if it splits 320 watts, that would only be 160 per cab, so I wouldn't get much more than either a 2x10 or maybe a 15.

I mean if you get a huge cab that can handle alot of power, you might be very disapointed with your sound.

Anyone else?
