moooper Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I know this is hard question to answer but any ideas would give me a good start. I have an Eden 410XST and I really like the sound but the weight is really excessive and its not going to work much longer. I'm really open to any ideas to replace but keep the same kind of sound I.e. Great low B handling punch and thick low end and off course loud. I'm using a Genzler Magellan 800 currently.

E sharp Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 You could always buy a 210XST - not half the weight , but lighter . Maybe even two of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moooper Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 It's an idea but they are not easy to come by anymore and I suspect they would be pretty expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassmayhem Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I had the same; got a TKS 2126 instead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moooper Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 Yeah TKS look good trying one might be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You mean problem as in getting hold of one? Talking about tone is difficult, but I have never looked back. Even if the specs say that the 2126 isn't that effective - a physical effect of the frequency response etc - I would say it stands well in competition with the D410XLT. Eden measures at 1 kHz and TKS has three measuring frequencies. The cab goes LOW, so you can back off the low eq on your amp to gain headroom. But the icing on the cake is the 6" mid woofer that delivers the essentials in the bass tone. My cabs are without tweeters; no need for that. And 25 kg! 55 lbs! That's nice.

moooper Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 Yes getting hold of one or trying one out. Thanks for the info on the tks. It's clear that 12 inch speakers are a recent improvement although in 25 years I've never played a cab with them. I'm not a big gear guy I really don't like music shops so tend to be fairly ignorant of new advances. But lightweight is one thing I really need to do.
