    Your head will run @ 500w at 8 ohm & 800w at 4 ohm. Unless you're bridging it of course.

    Oh, & don't pay that much attention to the wattage difference, use your ears instead.

    I'm sure the WT800a runs at 800w bridged at 8ohms, the older model doesn't have the option to have the full 800 watts at 4 ohms. It has two split channels both at 400 watts at 4 Ohms.

    Winterfire thats very kind of you, shame I'm quite far out! I'm based in Hull you see so would take a few hours to get down!

  2. Thanks for the advice guys, really thinking about trying out a barefaced cab now! ShergoldSnickers I think you bring up a good point there that I never though about, I will keep that in mind.

    XGSJX, I want it to be at least 800 watts because that what my head runs at 8 Ohms. I don't want to blow anything up or cause any damage to a cab by overpowering it.

    Well I'm looking to downsize from a stack to just one cab, so I was thinking a 4x10 would be a good choice. Yeah I've heard a lot of good things about the barefaced cabs. Actaully the guy I bought the eden from had the head paired with a BF cab. It was either the midget or compact and but I'll be honest I wasn't overly keen, maybe I needed more time to play around a bit. I was thinking markbass but they seem a bit out of my price range at the moment.

    @winterfire666

    Yeah there is a SWR G3 going cheap on here too, so might be worth looking into them a bit more, just can't seem to find any sound clips of the thing.

    As I said to Fuzz I'm a bit unsure about the barefaced cabs as I wasn't blown away by the one I played through. Hey maybe I just need to give them a another chance, but the cab it self been portable isn't to much of a problem for me. Although it would be nice to have a light and small cab haha!

  4. Right, I am looking a for a 4x10 capable of at least 800W @ 8 OHMS.

    Thing is the stores in my city have the next to nothing Bass gear wise, so been able to try out many different cabs is pretty much a no for me, so I am looking at you guys to help me out!

    I'm currently using a Eden WT800A paired with a Trace 2x10 & 1X16.

    What I'm looking for is a cab that is warm, punchy and full of low end. Basically looking for that modern rock tone. To note too, I also play a 5 string from time to time, so a cab that could handle the B would be a plus too!

    Budget is around 500 to 600 quid.

    Ive been looking at:

    The Ashdown CL 410

    SWR Goliath 3

    Fender bassman 410 Neo

    http://www.thomann.de/gb/fender_bassman_410_neo.htm

    Ampeg PF410

    http://www.thomann.de/gb/ampeg_pf_410_hlf.htm

    There was also the OBC410 but thats 600 watts, so I'm guessing thats a no go, I've been told if I don't clip it I should be ok but I'm not convinced, ideas guys?


    Thanks for reading and please help me find the perfect cab, i'm going mad haha!

  5. Chris sould me his lovely SR705 via post. I am very happy with the bass!! Great communications and a great chap to deal with! Plus fast postage, which is a plus when your iching to get your hands on your new bass haha! Many thanks again!

  6. [quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='920870' date='Aug 10 2010, 06:28 PM']The standard size Fender bridge cover doesn't fit over the huge Badass II - But I'm sure someone somewhere must have realised this and makes a bigger one. No? Ah well :)[/quote]

    Bummer, love the look of the bridge cover, but hate the peice of tin that comes with the fenders, stick with the badass!
