Hartke HyDrive 5410C

Has anyone here been able to get their hands on a New Hartke HyDrive 5410C ?
Here a little info. . . .
It's a new Combo Not yet available in the Samash stores on the east coast in the USA, this is a Sam Ash Brand and it's seem to be available on the west coast, and some mail order houses and even E-Bay.
The Combo looks sweet . . ...
Delivers 500 watts to its internal 4 ohm speaker system.
Four 10-inch HyDrive neodymium hybrid cone speakers
1-inch titanium high frequency horn

want to know what Bass Players are saying about this combo!

Thanks
Frank

I played the LH1000 head through the HX410 HyDrive cab, which should sound nearly identical to this combo. I think this would be a NICE combo "IF" the cab was ported to add a little more low end, which in my opinion, this cab lacks. I play metal, and I like to fill in the sound below and above the guitars. That cab has the highs I like, but lacked the low end that I need. But this is because it's a sealed cabinet. I bet adding a port, and playing with the length would make a nice difference.

If you're more into funk, or don't need a gang load of low end, this would be a SICK combo, IMO.

Go to Sam Ash, and check out the HX410 cab and one of the LH heads. This is basically what that combo is.
