Here's the mini rig of doom that's been rockin' my world lately...
Eden WT-405 and a pair of those Yamaha BBT110S cabs...
620W, and mind blowing depth for a pair of micro 10's...
I tried one of the Yamaha BBT500 heads, but just really didn't like it much. However, I've always been a big fan of Eden stuff, especially the Time Traveler stuff (ironically, since it's not their mainstream)...
I also have the Eden WTX-260 and it does amazing things with one of these cabs. Can't run both with that head, it won't do 2 ohms, but man, for a micro-110 rig, it's surprising.

Yeah Sean, dittos again... here's what I'm talkin' about (again)... to me, THIS is really more of a "mini rig of doom". Small but barks like HECK! I'd seriously consider gigging with this little bad boy...
I consider this rig to be "mini":

No can do my (truly) good friend, no can do...Lend me your Eden head![]()
Wow, you need to get a used WT-405. I had that Yamaha head, and IMHO, it's ok, but the 405 easily beats it in both tone and output (if you dig the Eden SS tone, anyway, and I definitely do).I'm gigging my Yamaha rig this Friday night, and will probably be using it for 70% of my gigs this year heh.
I am DYING for a WT-405
DYING
AND a pair of those yamaha BBT110S cabs... I have a source for up to 4 brand new ones still in the boxes, for the same MF closeout price of about 150 each shipped. That's THEFT for these cabs!! I'm thinkin' about picking up a third just to have a spare.Should have bought the WT-405.
A macabre joke about two head being better than one comes to mind...Hell, while I'm here, I might as well.
My mini-rig:

Hartke 3500 (why I'm GASsing for that 405) and Eden 210XLT.
Yeah, I have an 8-space rack case... A 2-space rack drawer is in the mail. I also plan on getting a power conditioner, tuner, compressor soon... and maybe wireles.
Just to fill things out a bit. ;-D
PS - Sorry for the picture. camera phone...

Well, hey, if you were in my neck of the woods and we were just talking about borrowing for a gig day, it'd be in your hands in a heartbeat, but I'd have to give you GAS warning for sure.Can't blame a guy for askingheheheh
Yeah, I agree, the Yamaha isn't perfect for my situation. It is worth what I paid, and then some, but I am a bit picky heh. I haven't heard the Eden SS tone, except my old Eden Metro, and I don't think I used the SS but maybe twice.
