"Buy it. Now."
Feature:Stereo cabnet. Mono @ 4 and 16 ohms, Stereo @ 8 ohms. The only thing keeping this from a 10 is not being able to run stereo @ 4 ohms. Everything else so far has been great. Casters seem pretty well made. Cabnet is all plywood (not particleboard) and is pretty lightweight for it's size. Celestion Speakers that sound great.
Quality:
Ok, I've heard better cabnets. But I havent played through anything in it's pricerange and can even touch it. It's dead quiet, not even a $10,000 condenser mic could pick up hiss from it. I handles my 250 watt Johnson head very well, and combo sounds absolutely fantastic. Sounds better than any Marshall I've ever heard, and almost as good as a Mesa Triple Rectifier with $500 bucks in footpedels. At $250 shipped to your door in less than 2 days, this should be considered highway robbery.
Value:
I'd be happy with a $750 cabnet that sounded like this.
Desirability:
It's a pretty good looking cabnet. Nice tweed speaker cover, but I would prefer a black or chrome grille. Maybe not the sexiest cabnet ever made, but it sounds very good compared to anything less than $1000.
Sound:
I've been playing for 28 years, and have played through many types of cabnets. I've had Carvin's, Ampeg's, Peavey's, Sunn's, Marshall's and played through countless other cabnets. And I've been shocked at how well the Hartke sounds. I've always known that they make a great bass amp, but I wasnt so sure how their venture into guitar equipment would fair. So far I could not be happier.
Ease of Use:
Back inputs are well marked and easy to read. It's a cab, it not rocket science, but I've seen some that have less than good labeling of inputs.
Support:
I havent had to deal with them yet.
Overall:
How much do I like it? As soon as I get around to it, Im going to get the stright cabnet so I can run my Johnson in stereo. I havent heard anything that can touch this that doesnt cost 3x as much. And anything under $1000 that I've played through would be hard pressed. It's stupid how good this thing sounds for the price you pay for it.

"Great Value!!!!!!"
Feature:You can switch this cabinet's ohm load so it can be used with just about any amp, thats why I bought it I needed a 4 ohm cab.
Value:
Can't beat it.....
Sound:
I play Hard Rock and Punk and I have no problems getting the sounds I like out of this cabinet. I'm playing a vintage Fender Bassman through it and it just screams. I've heard bettter, but for the money you can't go wrong!!!!!
Support:
Haven't needed any support...
