Does anybody have opinions about the Ampeg 210 cabs? The two I'm referring to in particular are the SVT-210HE and the PR-210H. What do these sound like with a 5-string? I play mostly rock, but I would like the cab to be versatile. I've also been considering mostly the Eden 210XLT and possibly the Aguilar GS210. So, what do you think?

Don't bother with the ampeg, great 4string cabs but your B-string will sound terrible. Eden comes closer. My recomendation is an Acme sound LowB cabinet. I got one a week ago and it is amazing. Check out AcmeBass.com Everything they say about it is true

Thanks for the advice. I have checked out Acme cabs, but Andy recommends at least 400 watts into the B-2, and I only have 350 watts @ 4 ohms (Hartke 3500). I was impressed by their prices and such, but I have heard they are very inefficient. However, with a more powerful head in the long-run I doubt the inefficiency would be too much of a problem.

Does the Acme B2 have an output jack so you can daisy chain another cabinet? I have an SWR SM400s that runs 500 watts mono at 4ohms. I would like to have the B2 running with a good 15" but want to run it mono because the stereo mode only gets 250 watts per side at 4ohms. I was planning on getting an 8ohm B2 and an 8ohm 15". Please let me know. Thanks.
