Which Rig Do You Prefer

[DeanT]

I'm looking for a compact, cheap rig, and this is what I've settled on:

• Ashdown EB180 with Ashdown MAG210 Cabinet
• Gallien-Krueger Backline 600 with Backline 210BLX-II Cabinet

Which do you prefer? Vote early and vote often!

While I like the Backline 600 head, I'd recommend that you spend a few more $$ on a cabinet and get an Avatar B210 Neo.

The 210BLX-II is a sealed 2x10 and just doesn't have a lot of low end.

I use the Backline 600 with an Avatar B210 Neo and it sounds awesome.

I've been running a backline stack for a little over a year, (but I'm hoping to swing a 1001RB in a few weeks) and the amp have performed well with no problems for 30+ gigs. The cabs are OK but I think there could be something better had for the same price. I've never played through an Ashdown but have read many positive opinions about them. I run the 410BLX and the 115BLX which is a fair amout of speaker area, but for 300 watts I've never been lacking in volume and have always had power to spare.

does anyone know of any stores that carry the Avatar Cabs? or do i have to order them directly from the company?

i am interested in making the same rig (backline 600 head and a 210 cab) but was a little weary about the quality of the backline cab. this avatar gives me another opption.

or hey, ill buy the 210 backline and add an Avatar 112 later, but either way, i found a new option! thanks guys!
