Total Watts

  1. There's different customer reviews complaining that the VX115 isn't able to handle the said 300 watts. It's really buggin' me. I'm trying out the rig this Friday.
  2. Found this in one of the reviews online about the VX115 on Zzounds... "The problem was this piece of crap had a 15" speaker in it on printed on the magnet it clearly stated 150watt" There are a lot of users complaining the cab can't handle what it's supposed to handle.....
  3. A pic of the Genz Benz cab => 300€ $_84.jfif And a pic of the Hartke rig => 500€ $_86.jfif
  4. Thanks Abarson! The seller says it's an 8ohm cab, could he be mistaken? As for the price I really can't tell. This the very first Gen Benz cab I've ever seen 2ndhand in Belgium. 300€ seemed a good price for a quality cab, but now you got me doubting! 😉 There also a Hartke rig up for sale, and the seller is willing to sell it me for 500€.... How do Hartke VX cabs compare to Genz Benz older 410's? https://www.2dehands.be/a/muziek-en-instrumenten/versterkers-bas-en-gitaar/m1676261749-hartke-bass-stack.html?c=4dc4183dfac1254e7aa85845826d5acd&previousPage=mympBuyer
  5. Hi guys, In my quest for a new rig I came across a Genz Benz GB410T, in near mint condition, for 300€. Now there's little to be found on this type of cab, and I wondered who among you have any experience with it? As I'm on a tight budget I'm really sifting through just about anything available secondhand (haven't looked on Basschat though, will do so). In my imagination, pairing up a GB410T with a Hartke HA5500 could work wonders..... What say you?
  6. Drooling now.... I'm from Belgium though, would you ship it?
  7. There's a Genz Benz GB410T cab up for sale in good condition, but I've never ever played anything Genz Benz. What's you guys idea on Genz Benz cabs in general?
  8. Hello from Belgium! Started playing bass at the age of 13 up until I turned 35, then quit for 7 years and now I'm back. Got a Warwick Corvette $$ from '06, and still on the fence regarding an amp.... Glad to be here on the forum!
  9. Mostly originals. Some friends and I had a band for quite a few years until we stopped in 2014. Our songs were heavily inspired by Queens of the stone age, Tool, Pixies, and so on....so pretty hard rock, sometimes verging on metal. Thing is I'm not rich enough to buy a practice-at-home rig and a jamming/performing rig. So I need 1 solution for everything. Markbass hasn't impressed me so far from the limited time I've played with one, though their quality is obvious, just not my taste I guess. But the Markbass Muti Amp is quite a different beast altogether, although yet again, my actual experience with one live is non existent.
  10. Hi guys, New here on the forum! I'm just gonna bombard you all with a brain splitting dilemma I'm struggling with the last few weeks. I've been on non-active for the past 7 years, and I sold all my gear, up to the last cable, mainly due to finances being too tight. A year ago I decided I could no longer live without playing the bass, and ended up buying a 2006 Warwick Corvette $$, in perfect condition, for a mere 700€. It's one hell of a bass! While it was relatively easy to pick the bass I really desired, the choice of an amp isn't..... I've filtered the rigs locally available secondhand down to 2 choices: First is a Gallien Krueger RBX 410 with a Markbass Multi Amp S Second is a complete Hartke rig: HA5500 with a VX410 and VX115 The GK/Markbass solution seems by far the better, with the included effects in the head, and simply the quality overall, but the price is pretty steep for my budget. The Hartke setup is quite cheap, just 500€ for the whole rig, and it's in perfect shape. With the endless lockdowns going on it's impractical to go and test these heads/cabs at the seller's houses, so all I've heard/read comes from internet. Can I ask you guys for all your experience with these heads/cabs? Hoping to finally pull the trigger on either of both! Thanks in advance!
