I can join in on this! no pictures though...

I have a HA7000, 4x10XL and 2x15XL cabs.
I gigged them for about 3 years with a heavy metal band (about 5 years ago). Sounds beautiful with my ESP LTD F255.That was until the head started making this low frequency popping; then I just ran my kickback 12 head thru the 2X15 cab.

That Rig sounds awesome!!!

I'm sorry, I'm the current "administrator" but I didn't start the thread.
One of the original rules is to post a pic of your amp. :crying:

It is awesome! I NEVER had to run a line out or mic my bass; so the tone was all mine. Not the soundman's interpritation of what I should sound like. We played everything from dive bars to big venues and I always had plenty power and low end.
Transportation was another story though. It's a big setup, and with the head in a six space rack it was a HUGE setup. Didn't fit in my Honda Accord very well.:atoz:

I'll see if I can get a picture tomorrow.
 
Here's the only pic that I could dig up on short notice.

You should be able to identify my stuff pretty easily as the stack to the right. The only thing that isn't mine in that stack is the 4 space SKB case with the NQD sticker on it.
The other cabs to the right are my brothers guitar junk. The one in the amp case is a Mesa triple rectifier:)

Here is the inside of the rack case peeking at the beauty within

That's what I'm talking about!

Congratulations!!! You're member #173

Welcome to the Hartke Club.
 
I LOVE my Hartke cabs. I have 2 410xl cabs, but for most gigs I only bring out one. Sometimes I pair up my GK 1001RB 2x10 combo with one of them to make a little six-shooter, but i fried a speaker in the combo lol...

Here's my usual rig:

I once had the 115xl, but I sold it and picked up the other 410. Gave up some of the low lows, but I'm moving more air now :)

Here's mine:

HyDrive HX410 on the bottom and a modded HyDrive 5210 on top. Alone and together they sound great! The 210 is for sale simply because I need some cash and it's the most expendable right now but I'm holding onto the HX410 for a long time to come. Methinks I'm a Hartke man now, lol.

WHAT? Selling the Epi's? Thought for a minute you were just over here slummin', but look at ya! :p
