There are endless possibilities as to getting you where you need to be, soundwise. I would encourage you to pursue a better bass set-up vs. what you have. In the end, you have to be satisfied with your set-up and sound, outside of all the varying and subjective advice you may receive, including mine. All I can do is answer your questions and offer advice based on my experience.
True, I can honestly say that I don't think it is my bass but my set-up. Everything I have ever used in the churches has been trash but I made it work and it sounded good once I was done. Last Sunday I adjusted the entire time I was playing because it never sounded right. |

The 4 ohm cabinet WILL pull more power from the amp, this is true. HOWEVER, that does not mean you will have more coverage. There is a difference. This is why I suggest staying with 8 ohm cabinets.

For example: 4 - 8 ohm cabs: 2 ohm load on amp. 2 - 8 ohm cabs: 4 ohm load on amp. 2 - 4 ohm cabs: 2 ohm load on amp. There are other variations of the above set-ups, however, just make certain you know what your amp can handle. You don't want to burn an amp up by using the wrong speaker configuration. And, obviously, the room size, with or without FOH support, will determine which set-up will best meet your needs in the end. Again, either the WT-405 or WT-550 will handle a load down to 2 ohms with no problem.

Is $1600 for the WT-405 and 210XST and good price. The WT-405 I found out is a display. They have two and both are displays, not new in-box. Should I jump on this?

Couple questions...
Quote:
A few questions: 1. Who are you buying from? 2. What's are the dates on the back of the amp heads? 3. Will you get the factory warranty on both head and cabinet (I believe it's 2 years on warranty)? 4. Is the cabinet new or also a display model? I would try and work the price down a bit. Maybe offer them $1,200. out the door. Particularly if the amp and cab are both floor/display models with full warranty. You just don't know what kind of use or mis-use has occured with this equipment.

The cab is new in-box. What kind of date am I looking for? I will be going there tomorrow to look at it and play it. I will be playing a floor model cab. I will try to work the price some more. I agree with you. They told me they can't sell the Eden stuff because it is too high end. Tim, sending you PM. |

There is a date written on the back of each head. This indicates when the head was built.

I will look at it. I suspect it will not be too recent since they are both on close out. I was told people in NY look at computers to see what has been there and then decide what to closeout. This sounds to me as if they have been there a while.

Then in that case...no deal by them, no buy by me. Maybe we can discuss some other options later, if they won't deal. I know there are other options, that are not quite as expensive. I can stick with cab but maybe change the head.

Well, if they don't deal, there are others that will. I would encourage you to stay with that set-up as a set.
