I had heard about these cabinets, but the new price was more than I could
justify; plus I was always recommending my Eden 4X10XLT to everyone.
Still, after hearing one more player wax about the sound on
fenderforum.com, I started a watch for "Bergantino" on eBay. Sure
enough, one was listed a few months later, and it was local! I ran right
over, and got a chance to hear it, AND a 2X12 at the same time. The
seller was keeping the 2X12, so I bought the 3X10.
I used it that weekend in a room that I had played many times, and was
notorius for bad sound. The low end improvement was noticable right away.
The sound was balanced, and I didn't experience the ear fatigue that had
me turning up the treble in the 3rd and 4th sets before.
It is now a year later, and its still the only cabinet I bring to gigs.
