That'll be Massively Great (Eden) Metro... off course .
I currently have this lovely amp in the for sale section with extension cab, but I'm not 100% convinced I really want to part with it as it sounds great, simply Eden = awesome to my ears.
However I'm knocking out 400W at 4ohms with the ext. cab and i'm finding in rehearsal that I cannot turn it too loud without the 2x10"'s flapping a bit, I've tried a myriad of settings but to no avail - plus i have also read on TB and the Eden forum about the 10"'s flapping if used with lots of low end. I'm finding that i can't get loud enough to keep up with the others.
Now admittedly I'm playing reggae here with a lot of low end, the 15" seems to handle this fine but the 2x10's fart out in the reggae territory...although i must add they are fine for everything else as long as you not over boosting the low end. This Metro is 600W at 2ohms but i don't have the funds for another 4ohm cab right now......and my Genz is dedicated to my other band
So my options:[list=1]
[*]Continue with flogging it and get something louder (or use my very loud 1500W Carvin amp and get a lighweight class D for my regular gigging band...i don't want to use the Eden in my regular gigging soul band due to heavy weight/carrying, regular weekly gigs etc etc..basically the reggae guys have their own studio and its always a case of loading into a van...minimal effort and few select gigs )
[*]Change the speakers in Metro...but to what?? Have been quoted £78+VAT per speaker for Eden XST speakers - bit skint right now so £200's worth of speaker may be hard to sort...i know the cab may not be tuned etc but it should work ok according to the Eden forum.....tempted to go 4ohms too as to get more watts out the amp, giving me the 2.63ohms with the 15" ext cab.
[*]Remove Metro head, get a box made up for it (but where?) and use different speakers?
[*]Join a country band

Anyhow, thanks for your thoughts & advice in advance
