Eden WTX-260

When amp shopping recently, i considered the WTX. I am a long time Eden fan and it seemed to be in line with what I wanted. Then I read some disappointing comments about it here on TB and elsewhere. That caused me to look at Eden's competitors. You may want to do a little research regarding that amp.

I ended up with the LittleMark II. Fantastic amp!! FYI and according to the owner's manual of my LM II, the region setting for the voltage is field settable (by factory service tech). You may want to look into that.

 

Genz Benz Shuttles do as well as their NeoPak.
There are other brands too... Phil Jones I think (?)

 

I have a wtx-260 and love it. I have mine running through a Scroeder 410L ( 4x10 ) and it sounds amazing. Before I sold my 6x10 I ran the wtx through that and it also sounded really good. When I bought my wtx at the store, I A/B'd both the shuttle and the wtx and was much happier with the sound out of the wtx. Also the wtx is rated at 260W @ 4ohms, but in other countries it can get up to 300W @ 4ohms depending on incoming power. I give the wtx the thumbs up!

 

If you are looking for a multi-region power supply, I would definitely go with a Genz. The Eden is severely underpowered IMO, and the two Edens that I owned both crapped out on me.

 

The WTX-500 is coming.

It's only 3 dB louder, but if you're enamored with wattage ratings (like most people here seem to be) then it's worth waiting for.

The WTX-260 prices will drop when the WTX-500 comes out.

 

I owned a WTX-260 for three weeks. I got rid of it because I thought it was a joke. It clipped very easily and sounded horrible when it did. I don't have the same problem with my LMII.

My experience has been quite the opposit. Wonder what was wrong with your 260?. Or maybe some of the earlier ones had this problem?. The 500 will be offered at a $899.00 MAP. When available. The price of the 260 is going down
