Hartke HX810 HyDrive Cab Customer Review

Feature:
err, i think it has a bar in the back to push, wheels, and slide "rails".......

Quality:
seems great, i saw nothing wrong.

Value:
Its expensive, But i dont think its any more expensive than an ampeg......and trust me, it sounds SOOOO much better than an ampeg. Like, no comparioson....and 2000 watts of powerhandling.

Desirability:
OMG!! I'm trying to sell two basses, a guitar, and my current stack of SWR 4x10, Son of bertha, and a hartke model 5000 so i can afford this thing and the head....I LOVE IT!

Sound:
Ok, so i went into Sam ash to try this thing out.....I hooked up my bass(a Hartke starter kit bass with pretty much broken pickups,tuned to Drop C-G-C-F) Usually it only sounds OK but coming out of this amp it was beautiful!! sounded even better than the Rickenbacer i had tried through a mesa at a different store 0_0 It was loud, it had punch, and was well defined from my Low C up to my highest notes. Everything came out clear and not even a little muddy! and when i hooked up a Bongo to that thing OMG!!! it blasted out the bass, and shook me! unbelivable, i can't even describe it!!!

Ease of Use:
With the LH1000 head(which i was using at the time) it was so simple....had like 3 knobs and two buttons, but still sounded increadible! INCREADIBLE!

Support:
dunno, never tried....I called Larry Hartke once though. He was a cool guy, talked for a while and sent me some strings and a catalouge...Great strings by the way!

Overall:
Amazing truely amazing! thats about it. I kinda doubt i would ever need anything, Maybe get a Hartke Kilo head someday to make it sound better....

About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
With the HyDrive HX810, the flagship of the line, Hartke has worked "industrial strength" into every facet of this remarkable cabinet. Power for days, a double set steel grill, inset side handles, a diamond steel kickplate and underneath, a pair of roadworthy, steel casters. The HyDrive HX810 was designed for demanding players who need critical performance at intense volume levels.

Perfectly suited for all kinds of bass playing, Hartke engineers also specifically designed the HX810 with the midrange frequencies rock players rely on night after night on stages all over the world, putting the ultimate exclamation point on this cab's versatility. And the HyDrive HX810 is a sealed, quad-chambered cabinet, featuring the highest quality plywood, extensive bracing and dado joinery, making it rigid yet lightweight for superior projection of sound and true sonic clarity.

With the HX810 you get eight 10-inch 250 watt HyDrive neodymium hybrid cone drivers, providing 2,000 watts of hammering bass power in the lightest 8 x 10 cabinet around. That's more than double the power capacity of any other 8 x 10. To get this much power from traditional paper cones, you would need a cabinet that had 20 speakers and weighed nearly 400 pounds! With all this lightweight power and tonal versatility, it's clear that the HyDrive HX810 is the new big daddy bass cab on the market.

What is HyDrive?
HyDrive transducers represent a revolutionary improvement in bass speaker technology and a major leap forward, fusing paper and aluminum in a roadworthy speaker design that is more robust and efficient than anything available.

With Hartke's HyDrive series, you get the best of both worlds: the warm tone of traditional paper cones and the clear, punchy attack of aluminum. HyDrive's patented Hybrid Cone Technology produces a speaker that uses an outside paper cone to push a warm, deep low frequency and an inner aluminum cone that produces mids and highs that cut, yet still remain sweet.

One of the most important advances with the HyDrive speaker is its power-to-weight ratio. A HyDrive speaker weighs 40% less than traditional speakers and delivers 250 watts for the highest power-to-weight ratio of any bass speaker available. But the innovation runs even deeper. Because of its cast aluminum frame and neodymium magnets, HyDrive speakers operate cooler and deliver more reliable power handling at peak performance.

Larry Hartke stunned the bass community with the distinct tone of his original aluminum-cone speaker, and he's set to do it again with the new HyDrive series. These updated drivers blend the warm character of traditional paper cones with the crisp attack of aluminum for a whole new level of tonal complexity. Add a cast aluminum frame and neodymium magnets, and you get a cool, efficient speaker with the highest power-to-weight ratio available. Dial-in any tone, from warm and fat to tight and gritty, then unleash it on your audience with crisp, undistorted fury!
