I like the eminence bass.

For me, the answer was the BSX Allegro Acoustic.

I didn't get a chance to try any Azolas, but I did try NS (WAV and CR) Eminence, Bassix, Palatino, and few more (I think there was an Aria in there, probably a Yamaha Silent bass too). The BSX was the one that made me say, 'yeah, that's it'

My friend's Eminence, strung with Garbos, was pretty damn close in the mix of a quartet.

Eminence with Garbos, med to high action sounds closest to my ears.

3 eminence + 1 BSX Alegro So far, thank you. I need another opinion some more please..

BSX with Helicore orchestras.

AlterEGO, both the Acoustic line and the babyEGO line. In my opinion they most closely approximate the sound of a double bass through an amplifier - which is what we are dealing with on most gigs anyway. They also feel very, very much like the "real" thing.
Best, Rick

I play an Eminence strung with medium Corellis, with a fairly low action. I find the amplified sound almost indistinguishable from a similarly amplified high quality plywood bass.

It has done the job strung with Spiro Reds and with Corelli lights in gigs ranging from duo to big band. I am pleasantly surprised that it continues to elicit favorable comments both on its sonic and visual qualities.
