Need ALT choice - Please help

Sign in to disble this ad
Need ALT choice for Eden D210XLT and a D210XST. I would prefer these cabs but cant find a good used deal right now.

Are there any other 210 cabs that would closely compare to these two eden cabs? Thanks.

I've gigged with a Eden 210XLT and later a 212XLT cabinets, then about a year ago I went to two Avatar Neo 210 cabinets that I stack as a vertical 410.
The Avatar's are being driven by a GK MB2-500 head.

I haven't regretted the switch to Avatar for a single second.

I prefer the way the vertical Avatar 410 stack cuts in a live
band over what I was getting with the Eden cabinets.

The 212XLT gave a great low end pillow but to my ears had no real cut on stage...
The 210XLT gave good mids but it had very little useable low-end and distorted very quickly when driven with any low end boost.

My two 210 Neo Avatar's are holding up "very" well, their cabinets are easier to move than the Edens, lighter, IMHO sound as good if not better, and come in at half the price.

Are there any comparisons that I can read on the two? I love saving money and not sacrificing tone. Thanks.

Hilton,
I'd suggest doing a search here on the forum on Avatar.
You'll find tons and tons of info on Avatar bass cabinets. Avatars are just like every other manufacturers bass cabinets...some players love em'...some don't.
Also, check out different manufacturers web-sites.
You'll find most brand name, double the price cabinets are using the same speakers, horns, plywood, cab design, ect., as Avatar.......there just charging more.
