    Thank you :)



    ah okay - now here is where I get confused :unsure:[size=4] - why 10" rather than 15"? and what about 2 x 10" ? :)[/size]

    [color=#222222][font=Arial][size=2]Some people say that if you're running 10"s and you could do with some more bottom end, then stick a 15" underneath. This is what a lot of players do and swear by it, louder and fatter, moves more air. Other say it sounds better to the bassist standing in front of it primarily due to the top speakers being nearer your ears, stand further away and the effect is less noticeable. Also it is said that using 15's with 10's blur the punch of the bass due to the sound of the note played reaching your ears at slightly different times from the speakers, this is because of the speed and amount of air they push forward.[/size][/font][/color]
    [color=#222222][font=Arial][size=2]All this said, it's what you alone prefer. I agree with Lozz196 about the distance selling rules, buy two and send one back. If you use Gear4music they have free delivery, and free return if sent back within one week.[/size][/font][/color]

    Mark Bass 4x10's thoughts?..

    I've had both Mark Bass 4x10's and the front ported one delivered thunderous lows, which once you stop smiling, you then realise isn't doing the 'onstage' sound much good. The rear ported one is a little punchier. I would have to dissagree with one of the comments above which describes 'sweet mids' as I think that this is where MB cabs fall down.
    I may have been be spoilt though with my Bergs.

    Eden WT800 amp and Eden cabs valuation

    High quality gear which was highly priced. Resale value at the moment is low, so expect £500 for the head, £280 for the 2x12 and £250 for the 2x10, You could get a little more if you're prepared to wait it out. The head, although great sounding, is the least desirable due to the 'a' suffix suggesting it can only be bridged into 8 Ohms.
