Hi All,
I just acquired an Eden WT-800 that dates to March 21, 1994. It's in exceptionally clean condition and has been studio-housed since new. I am looking for some history of this amp model to discern if it's actually an "A" version and when the amp was first issued by Eden. It's my understanding that an early version in this condition would be desirable, so any info you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Ray Mauldin

Eden WT800A - Cons?

The back of the amp should be labeled with minimum impedance settings. The A model was 8 ohms minimum in bridge mode. I believe it was possible to upgrade the guts of the As to Bs though...not sure if this meant new impedance stickers on the back.

Also as you can see here, the Bs were labeled WT800B and had speakON instead of 3-way bind post outputs.

Here's a 94 that says 8 Ohms bridged, but that back is stamped WT800B. Perhaps this amp has received an upgrade as I don't believe they started making B models until 2005. Eden WT800B
