Hartke Model 115XL Bass Cabinet (200 Watts, 1x15 in.)

Feature:
The locking corners for other Hartke cab's is a nice touch.

Quality:
Ok let me tell you! I got two boxes shipped to me and both boxes got tore up! This one took the worst of it. It appears that a forklift or something just tore into the box and hit the cab. It dented the wood under the carpet cover on both sides on the front of the cab but no other damage. I just rubbed the marks off the carpet and decided I would try it out anyway. Sounds great! No rattle or any other issues at all. I like this product so much I'm not returning it because I know it will take to long to get a new one. I know this because I got the last one in stock! So a little dent in the wood under the carpet isnt' going to stop me form breaking the plaster off the walls!

Value:
For the price you can't find a better bottem end.

Desirability:
These cabnets look great and sounds even better!

Sound:
For delivering that bottem end boom this is the cab you have been looking for. Your not going to get upper mid's or high's out of it. This cab needs at least 2 10" speakers and horn if you want the whole range. Unless, the only sound you want is pant vibrating low's.

Ease of Use:
Plug it in, adjust your head unit and go!

Support:
Not used but If I need to I have seen some good reviews.

Overall:
I shopped arround alot before making my final choice. I wanted the whole deal! Bottom end boom, mid range punch, and crisp high's. I found it! Put this with the Hartke 2.5XL cab and you won't need anything else! Except maybe another stack!

I, like most, was very apprehensive about the use of aluminum cone drivers. I had purchased some of the TP series cabs years ago only to take a beating when I traded them in a month later. It took me years to get to the point I would even test Hartke's stuff at the music stores. I tried a combination of the Hartke 4.5xl and the 215xl. You will not beleive the rumble, or the crisp highs. These cabs are the only ones I have tried that have no frequency holes. When you need FULL frequency response and plenty of power...Oh, and because of the XL cabs efficiency your amps will seem much louder than they actually are. Shear amazement is all I can say. That and they look tight and right with stage lighting on them. Ampeg. SWR. Eat your hearts out.
