Eden WT400

So what's your initial impression? I have been using a GK 400rbIII and am waiting delivery of a WT400 I won on eBay. I'm hoping for a little more beef and smoother highs. What were you using prior to the WT400?

 

Oh I forgot, that's through two bagend cabs, a 12 and 15. Both s-d's, no tweet, and of course a Jbass.

 

Well, I got the wt400 that I was gassing for. Maybe I've been playing the 400rbIII too long but, I don't seem to getting the sound I was hoping for. I had thought the 400rbIII could use a little more warmth and initially I thought the Eden kicked some serious booty (it's clean and loud) but, after a few hours I started A-B-ing the two. After a few more hours, I feel my self gravitating to the GK, it's growly with a smooth transition from low to high. My studio is a bit boomy, mostly hard surfaces, I wonder if that's it. The GK has been dialed in to that space for a long time. I left the Eden flat and played at the same volume as the GK, I made subtle moves witht the eq and enhance but, to my ears, the sound is either boomy or a little too hard edged. In comparison you would expect it to be the other way around.

How did it go with you mobax?

 

I recently had the pleasure of using a friends WT300 and I loved the sound: fat and rich, but don't forget, jbassbob, to try and thin out the sound with the "low" and "bass" controls. Eden WT's can thin out pretty nicely. fat or thinner I like that!

 

Where did you have the Enhance control? Just wondering because you said you needed to boost your mids. With the Enhance, flat is completely off, while 12:00 is a considerable mid-scoop.

 

The Eden/Bergie combination is a good one.

 

The Eden manual says that flat on the enhance is full counter clockwise and pulled out defeats the compression. I'll be doing plenty of experimenting as well... there's a lot there to play with

 

I'll keep working at it. I'm finding my space is making the sound edgier than I'd like. Thanks for the input.

 

I use the WT400 with a Schroeder 1212 and cannot find fault with either.

Eden makes a padded over-the-shoulder bag that is a great accessory. I put all my cords and junk in the outer pocket, put it over my shoulder, put a gig bag on my back, and carry the Schroeder like a laundry basket and it's only one trip to from the trunk to the stage!

 

LDS had them in stock last week. MF was just showing off their "product knowledge", The WT800 is a 2 rackspace (full rack) unit, and I don't believe Eden makes a bag for it.
