Any of you run your MM bass through Eden gear? Short of a tube amp, I'm happy with my Eden WT400 and 410T cab. I'm going thru the passive bass input for my two Fender passive Jazz's. The Stingray will go through the active input. What's the view here on Eden gear and MM's? (secret hand shake given)

I had trouble getting my kind of tone through my two ex-WT400s (I never learn, really). (Yes, I have had two.)
It seemed too boomy without having the real thump I go for. But there are lots of people out there who use those heads, so maybe it was just me and/or the combination of cabs I like to use.
They sure are convenient little suckers, aren't they?

I just spent the last week going through a WT550 and a 210XST as well as got to try out a CXCTimeTraveler 2x12 combo for one show. I was actually quite impressed with the sound. Alot of it had to do with the 210XST though I think, I've never liked the XLT series of cabs but the XST was definitely less boomy, the TimeTraveler head was cool too. I think over the course of the summer I might get into a 410XST to round out my rig.... for a while....

Well, it wasn't really a switch so much as it was a return to what I had been using all along, a Sunn 1200s through an Ampeg cab or two.
I bought the (2nd) Eden because they're so easy to pack in and out and I guess I was just looking for an "option". I probably would have kept it, but you know how it goes, Chuck came over one day and we got to talking and.....next thing you know, Chuck is paying Cutrer and Cutrer is sending me a natural/rosewood Stingray 5.
I guess I'm getting it next week.
So that's the story and I'm back to the Sunn for all purposes.
I do also have my Dream Rig, all Peavey! A SessionBass head (I think it's about 180 watts, don't hold me to that) and a Peavey 1-15 cab, 4 ohm.
You'd be surprised how good the stupid thing sounds.

I use an Eden Metro with all my Stingrays and love it. Serious bottom and lots of warmth that I haven't had before in most of my rigs.
But I still dig a GK with my Rays too.
