UBELIEVEABLE ! I got the 4200 cab with the 4000 head. This rig has most definately exceeded my expecttations. I have been using a peavy centurion (130 watts) and a 2x15. We play in an auditorium that seats about 1100 people. Every week, I was told "you are getting lost in the mix". I got the HA4000 with 4200...one word, AWSOME. I only had to turn up to "2" and there was plenty of bass. I was very impressed with the amount of PUNCH and also the the amount tone controll was remarkable. I never could figure out how some bass players get that "gliss" on the way up.... with the setup I have now slides sound great (up or down). I am finally able to get that slap sound that has eluded me for a long time too. Our drums, guitar and bass stand on a riser and we can actually FEEL the bass with our feet! The only reason I give it an 8 it because in my opinion, I will need to add the 1800 cab soon to finish rounding out the sound on the low end. Other than that, this is positively the most bang for your buck. plenty of headroom.

quick to setup and rugged

they could have done better on the front grill. the corners are not secured well but that doesnt affect anything but looks. I bought this because of the way it sounds not for looks.

better than any thing in its price category BY FAR

they are not in a hurry to answer emails but the emails I sent were not of warranty issues, just information inquires. the person responding had helpfull replies and seemed to be knowledgable.

ITS A CAB, for pete's sake! it looks like a cab. I bought it. enough said.

I like the heavy magnets this thing has.. plenty of bass tone! It actually has all the same features my favorite bassist (Ru-D from Mudvayne) has in his Ampeg w/o the steep price and has only half the watts.. which is exactly what i was looking for.. this thing will most likely be the highlight of my life this Christmas

Love the 38oz. magnet in the horn and the freqency response covers the range of my 5-string ESP. It has all the features of a reliable, high-quality cab.

I'v never used Hartke but this appears to be the best equipped cab i'v found under $600. Seems sturdy too.. 125lbs is alot of weight though..

Its the best i'v found so far.

Im doing everything i can to make this cab a part of my setup.
