EDEN

Hey all,
I just found a great deal on a used Eden D410xlt. I currently run my GK700rbii through an Avatar B410 Neo cab. I was wondering if you guys thought that this was a good upgrade. I'm probably going to be investing in a new amp soon as well. So.. how much better of a sound will I get with an Eden D410xlt vs my Avatar 410 neo. Thanks for your guys input!

I'd say it's an upgrade, but you need to play through it and decide for yourself. Make sure the drivers in the Eden aren't creased, too.

I haven't compared the two, but... those Eden 410s are hard to sell, I had a nice one and it took a long time to get $350 out of it, I think the days of 98 pound 4x10 cabs are nearly over (if I remember correctly they really weigh 98 pounds). For me, it would have to be a GREAT deal, like $300 or less, and pick it up a few times and see if you really want to move it around.

I really like mine - handles my M6 and SVT very well. I'd say it's an upgrade - going from 2x10s to 4x10s is an upgrade.

I used to run the same combination (GK700rbii & D410xlt) and it was the best sounding rig I ever had. The GK amp delivers a solid, powerful and clear sound. Paired with the clarity of Eden cabs u get one of the best sounds out there IMO... It's an upgrade an a half!

How does the Eden D410XLT handle the low B? Sorry to resurrect this thread but I am still debating picking this cab up. The only down side that I can see here is the weight, but the casters will really help there. Looks like I'll be picking this thing up for $400 if I decide to go for it. Any other suggestions here?

Hope you don't mind the extra weight.

I played through exactly one Eden 4x10, don't know which model it was, and it sounded pretty righteous, all the way down to low Bb.

Yeah the weight of the Avatar B410's makes it hard to switch to an Eden d410xlt!

Wish I could be of more help to ya. I'm pretty much useless here, but I saw Avatar mentioned. I love mine. Only thing I even contemplate changing it for is a fEarful, but I'm not sold on them yet (this coming weekend might change that when I get to play one).

I've got a 4x10 eden. Been using it for the past 8 years, a real workhorse. Built to*survive a nuclear explosion.

Sounds great to.

Cool, thanks for the positive feedback.
