Did you buy a used prebuilt fEARFUL, or a DIY kit, or did you have an authorized builder make one? If I could get a fEARful in that price range (fully built, not a kit) I would 100% just pick one up tomorrow. I have a much bigger budget this time around if needed. I could have a 1515/66 built by...

The repair guy pulled up his supplier website and we looked at the drivers together, at first he had selected a 500w but then he second guessed himself and thought 250+250=500. I think I'll stick with the OEM drivers, if anything. The seller tried to tell me the holes in the surround occurred...

I don't know how many more ways I can say this: I have owned another 210 (Fender Rumble combo) and my expectations are based on firsthand experience. This Eden setup isn't as loud as I hoped because the speakers are shot, not because I'm expecting 410 output from a 210. I wouldn't show up to...

Thanks so much guys, I learned a lot here. I've actually never heard a properly functioning Eden in person but many people were recommending it for reggae on here. Family Man (Bob Marley/Wailers/etc) plays two Eden 410s and a WT series head and I just wanted a scaled down version for mostly bar...

@agedhorse: Ok, so my takeaway is that even though the drivers pass a generic excursion test they are still likely toast. What exactly are you seeing, so I know to look out for it in the future? How would you explain it to a certified repair guy telling you the driver is fine? Telling me I got...

Here are the photos. I included a close up of the grouping of 4 pin holes in the surround, as well as the sloppy looking re-glue of the dust cover. Neither repair did much. The recent guy I took it to is an authorized service center for Fender, Peavey, Roland, Marshall, Vox, Mackie, Behringer...

I'm not sure what you mean by that. Like I said, I got 75% of the price refunded for the holes in the surround (cost of a new driver because Eden isn't making recone kits or something like that). Two techs have looked at it and said those holes are too small to cause significant issue and...

Sorry I didn't have a chance to pull the grill off today, had to work late and the cab is still in my Jeep. I'll do that whenever I wake up. I can clear up a few things: 1) I have the WT550, not the WT500. I guess bridge is the wrong term, I mean run two 4ohm cabs with it. Sorry, I've always...

My understanding is that 4+4=2 or 8+8=4, and a single 8ohm wouldn't draw enough power so the double 4ohm cabs is the recommended modular setup. There are lots of threads full of people running this amp at 2ohm, and that quote came from a user manual. Eden WT550 - 2 ohm performance?? Maybe I'm...

Thanks for the replies. The amp should bridge to 2ohm even though they didn't list it, 'We have designed our amplifiers to operate safely at 2 Ohms only because everyone else is doing it and some users expect it. However, we much prefer operating at 8 or 4 Ohms because of the markedly improved...

After reading many glowing reviews I bought an Eden WT550 amp and Eden 210XST (4ohm) used on Reverb. Out of the gate it sounded terrible so I took it in, the dust cover was separating so it was removed and re-glued. It's only a little better - I can't get over half volume/gain before it clips...
