when you can talk in a bass forum about eveything bass orientated with out the jealously, ignorance and ego of guitards.

hi guys and gals,i use a hartke vx4x10 and vx1x15.they're not high end cabs;but they sound great to my ears.i brought them for 3 reasons. 1)they fit in my car(just) 2)they're very light. 3)the decimal point on my bank statement is on the wrong side of the zeros.

So I'm thinking of upgrading my Mag 250 C115 combo to separates. I've had the chance to play through a Hartke HA 3500 at a couple of gigs. And I liked the sound. Unfortunately I can't seem to find one second hand at the mo. But there seem to be a few Ha 4000 heads going. I've never played through one of these so I'm interested in the differences. I know the 4000 doesn't have the tube pre-amp. Has anybody played both and can they tell me how they differ?

I'm also thinking of getting a Transporter 4x10 cab (mainly because of the weight). Does anybody know how these differ to the XL ranges etc?

Any opinions are welcome. As are offers of similar heads/cabs.

Thanks Guys

hi,i use a ha550 head with vx cabs(4x10,1x15)and i think they're great.there's loads of uummph in the head and the vx cabs are nice and light;and i can hear every note nice and clearly.the tube pre-amp isn't that great but the sound is loud and i can dial in most sounds.
hope you get what you want.
