I just recieved a GK 400RB, the ol' school one with 200w at 4 ohms.

I've got two offers for a cab.

Should i get

1. A hartke 210XL, for $180 with tax.
2. or, a nemesis 212 , for $290 with tax.

The hartke is 8 ohms, and the nemesis is 4.

The nemesis is plenty loud, and the there would be much head room. the hartke leaves room for more cabs.

Both have a nice tone.

Opinions? I've got approx 350 to spend. Speaker cable is free.

unless your only playing quite small venues, id say get the 212!

the 212 is a better bang for the buck, & will get much louder. unless its too
big to carry.

I can carry it, but it would be hard to get into a car, whereas the 210 i could take the street car with, which is my main mode of transport.

the 210 will not be loud enough on it's own, unless it is an acoustic jam.
Get the nemesis.
If you want to add a 15 or a 410, get the Hartke

The 212 is a better option, imo. With the 210, you'd need another cab.

+ 1 with murphy. I'm running a G.K. 800 into a 4 ohm Eden 212XLT and it's the best sounding rig I've owned.
I'm with a loud 6 pcs. country/rock group with P.A. support, tried using a single Eden 210XLT and it wasn't even close. Great highs and mids...not enough lows. The 212 is an all different ball game! Plenty of lows, fills the stage and has very good projection.

Sadly, just realized that i've only got $240, and so I'll be getting the Hartke.

Any opinions on the 210XL.
