How will the Eden DC210XLT Metro compare to the Ashdown Mag 300 115?
I know they're completely different. But I won't have a chance to hear both before I decide (don't ask, it's not worth getting into).
Tell me if I'm wrong. But as I gather from reviews the Eden is loud, heavy (78lbs), pretty clean and accurate but with some warmth, and in this case $400. And the Ashdown is light (less than 30lbs), not as loud, pretty warm but maybe not quite as articulate, and $220.
Am I way off on any of that?

Actually, the Ashdown is 28kg ~ 62 lbs.
Both are good deals but the Eden should be a much better amp.

I pulled the trigger on the Eden.
The amp didn't have casters or a footswitch. Isn't that supposed to come with it?
It's not a big deal. I don't need the footswitch, and I can probably replace the casters fairly cheap, right?

Yep, casters are cheap and you can certainly live without the footswitch at that price.
Nice grab. Let us know how you like it.
