Eden WTX264 vs Carvin BX250

How do the Eden WTX264 and the Carvin BX250 stack up against one another played through a good 210 cab? (except on their respective ends LOL). I'm stuck between the two. Not concerned about the price difference.

The WTX sounds great, never played a BX.

How noisy is the fan on the WTX? I will be playing in a small church and I have heard that the fan is kinda noisy.

I just started using the WTX, so maybe things will change, but in my living room I don't even hear the fan when it is running.

I just used it with the EX110 cab as part of a benefit gig this past weekend and it held it's own with the Carvin BX that the bassist in the previous band had. Just my $.02.

Remember, I just received this, so it has not been long term tested.

I never had an eden.

What i have is a carvin bx250 running on a gk mbe210... and it sounds great. I like the opportunity to select the frequency for the high mids and low mids. The contour to go flat or scooped is another bonus. Structurally, the bar handles in front also adds some protection for the knobs when it's stored in my gigbag. Did i mention how light it is?

Noise? So far, i never had any noise problem with the bx250?
Would i recommend it? Certainly!

Again, just an opinion from a bx250 user that never had an eden.

Try this site. They compared the microbass amps in the market... at least some of them:
