Members RSBro Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 I was looking, as some of you know, at a pair of Bergies- the NV425 and NV215. Both are within $50 of each other, so it's not a huge deal either way. But, I just got an offer locally from a guy selling a Schroeder 310212R for about $300 less, and he'll drop it off. I really was getting a bigger cab just to move some air. I've miked up I think once in my life, and that was at the Whiskey A Go Go show, and wasn't even my gear. I like how my basses sound going straight in, so as far as getting "sweet" tones live or on stage, I'm not so much worried about as moving air and being heard when we have minimal PA support... Plus on my hard rock gig, I think this would actually sound killer being miked, from what I remember. Plus, I could nab a DB112 for the difference, or close to it. I just need someone to decide for me! Are the Bergs worth the $300 difference for monitor purposes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members T. Alan Smith Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 I haven't played those cabs, but I've played a LOT of cabs. IMHO, the Bergs are worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These come up for sale used all the time, just keep your eye open. I think I got my NV610 for $825 shipped and it was worth every penny. I'd buy another one tonight if it was broken or stolen.
