JMBassist Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Hi there I'm thinking about buying one of these and I'm very curious, but have no chance to test it. Does some of you know this cab and can make a short review on it? Basicaly, I can´t decide between this and a Epifani PS112... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverBlackman Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 my favourite part is the clarity in tone. The high mids can cut through anything. Also it has an amazing warmth similar to that of the aguilar cabs. I have never tried epifani cabs though so i couldnt compare. Ps. The Hartke cabs are very light. I once carried one in each arm to a mates house and only had to put the down twice (btw im incredibly small and weak) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMBassist Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Nice! In fact that just increased my curiosity about this cab... And what about the Epi? Anybody here can compare both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I have a pair of HX112's and so does TinyViking on this very forum too! - I know that he has had his out for a gig or few already so will be able to respond to how they sound up loud, but my pair are yet to go out of the house! I'm hoping that will change soon! - The Hydrives are warmer sounding than their XL range counterparts but still retain that extra bite that the alu' cones give. I've found that as my own bass is quite a bright instrument, I am happy backing the tweeter off on the HyDrive cabs, but there's definitely lots of punch and low end there. I recommend getting your hands on 'em to try out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Ahh! If i pull my finger out and do my Kilo review, I'll do the HyDrive cabs with it at the same time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMBassist Posted November 8, 2011 Author Share Posted November 8, 2011 Well, thanks That's my problem, I don't see a chance to test one in the next weeks...maybe months, but I need a 1x12 asap and I'm not sure if can go with that "bright alu'sound"... I'm almost decided to go to the Epi for almost the same price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
