Hey guys,

Going to buy a rig soon, its either A or B, both are $750 (Can)each, what do you think is the better buy?

A) SWR Working Man 4x10, SWR Working Man 1x15 with Behringer Ultrabass BX4500H.

B) Hartke HA7000 Head with Bi amp and Hartke XL4.5 Amp.

Please let me know, picking one up on friday, need help deciding :S

hartke. workingman cabs are pretty nice for the money, but the behringer head ruins it for me.

I would 100% go with the SWR workingman cabs, and the behringer head. The next day, sell the behringer head and get an SWR head!

why buy the behringer head, then sell it the next day? why not just buy a SWR head in the first place? Buying the Berhinger head then reselling it is a waste. I tried reselling one, but was only offered 50 bucks.

I think it was more of a cynical way to say don't get the Behringer head

He's more or less throwing in the Behringer Head.

So its 1-1 so far...

A is two SWR cabs plus a Behringer amp, B is two Hartke amps? Or is the one of Hartke products really a cab?

xl 4.5 is a cab.

btw, if he's throwing in the behringer head for nothing, he's grossly overpricing the cabs.
