This is a 2005, brand new D115XLT. It is loaded with a 15 inch Eden woofer and a cast tweeter with tweeter level knob, a pair of Speakon and a pair of quarter inch inputs. This is a fairly simple cab and has only what one would need in a bass cab.

I currently play a Tobias 5 sting with Bartolini pickups and Lakland 5 sting also with Bartolinis thru an Eden WT550 amp and finally into the D115XLT. Most of the time I use the D115XLT in conjunction with my D210XLT. My band is a Blues band with heavy tendencies toward Funk and Jazz. The 15 cab alone sounds nice and round with good definition all the way down to the open B sting. the mids are very smooth. Perhaps too smooth for me. With the addition of the 210XLT cab, I get more of the mid range growl that I like for the funk stuff.
Reliability

hey, it is an Eden! If my 210XLT cab and Eden WT550 amp are any testiment to the reliablity of Eden, the D115XLT will work perfectly for hundreds of gigs to come. I do treat my equipment very well so I can not speak to its ability to stand up to abuse.

I have been playing bass for about 7 or 8 years with regular gigs for the past 6 years. If any of my Eden gear was lost or stolen, I would definitely buy it again. I had the oportunity to test Aguilar, Mesa, SWR, Carvin and GK. The Eden cab sounded better then most. The Aguilar sounded just as good to my ears, but I am loyal to Eden because to me it is a "known good".
