Shogun Drizzt
I have a Carvin Redline... it sounds great... it's just not made very well.. they use cheap hardware.. like input jacks.. my cable is stuck in the jack... it's stuck really weird too... neither me nor my dad can figure it out... i need to take it to a repair guy i know...
but it does sound great... so i don't know where you heard that angrymalazar, but they aren't all that bad...
Played through a Redline setup at one time, one of my friends actually brought it in for his speech class for some demonstration (the RL4x10 with a RL1000 head, and a sweet a** Yamaha TRB1006, but anyway), sounded a tad sterile, and it felt more than a little cheap. Maybe terrible was a strong word but they're definitely not great, but, like with most things, you get what you pay for, and these were meant to be their new bottom of the line series. These kinda reaffirmed what I thought though.

(thought it was weird to see all the threads pertaining to people having trouble with their Redlines on the Carvin boards)
Hmm, sadly Harmony Central seems to be having issues at the moment, or I'd get a link to those too.
Edit- http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Bass+Amp/brand/Carvin, average rating on all the Redline stuff is about a 7, low's about a 4 or 5.
