"Here Is Your Dream Cabinet!"

Feature:
Simple. The grab-bar/handle-thing on the back, along with the built-in coasters, make for easy maneuverability.

Quality:
We keep it in the studio, so the only time we'll ever move it is for gigs. It's solid, heavy, and durable.

Value:
Worth the price. The top-of-the-line 410 costs just as much as the 810. The 610 is fifty bucks cheaper. Go with the big daddy of them all and be happy.

Desirability:
It ain't ugly. Would it appear more appealing dressed in a metal grille with fuzzy carpet instead of cloth and tolex? LISTEN to it and then ask yourself if you care what it looks like.

Sound:
I've only played my SVT-CL head out of Ampeg cabs, and the 8x10 is simply the best match for the amp. It gives me my dream sound by handling the highs quite nicely wihtout sounding too sharp or caustic; the mids help my bass cut through my guitarist's screaming Marshall; and the lows are enough to handle the heaviest hitting drummers on the planet. Oh, those lows! Turn up as LOUD as you want and you will notice the lows are still clear--not soggy and undefined. This amp will handle whatever you've got, and it doesn't stop delivering. It's sound is BIG, BIG, BIG--you will not get lost amid the blissful chaos you and your bandmates create. They will know you're there--but the 4x10s and even the 6x10s won't let you make that claim. It also records quite well. You can simply put a mic in front of a single speaker and be amazed when you hear the recording. And you will know that you now sound like you think you should sound. With the SVT-CL, this cab reproduces that sound you dream about in your head. A wet dream come true!

Ease of Use:
Never met an Ampeg cab with a sound that sucked. As I mentioned, a big head like the SVT-CL may be too much for smaller cabs to handle; but this cab is designed to handle Ampeg's best heads. Plug in and play.

Support:
Haven't had to deal with support, yet.

Overall:
I have no need for another rig. To me, this one fits my playing perfectly, and it gives me and the band the sound that now plays a big role in defining us. It growls, it roars, it cannot be beat. If it were stolen (how can you lose something this big?), I would die. There's no way I'd play out of a different cabinet.

"Scrape up the cash, BUY IT, you'll NEVER be sorry!!!"

Feature:
What else do you need. It has wheels, a push bar, and a input jack.

Quality:
I used this in the local club scene, as well as on the road. It's tough and rugged. It's a wonder Timex don't have stock AMPEG, but instead of "It takes a beatin and keep on tickin." they would say, " It takes a lumpin' and keeps on THUMPIN'!"

Value:
Yes this product is on the upper price scale. I've had mine for 15 years now and I would get rid of it for ANYTHING!!!!!

Desirability:
You can't mess with perfection. I don't want an amp that sticks out like a sore thumb on stage. I like to blend it into the shadows of the stage and let the people search for what in the world is that bass player playing through.

Sound:
I bought mine in Feb. 1990. I'm still giggin' with it today. I replaced the grill cloth because stuff happens. I replaced the speakers in '99 just because I wanted to. Out of all the different bass amps and cabinets I've tried, NOTHING, & I mean NOTHING comes close to the THUMP I get with this Cab. And yes it does help that I have an Ampeg SVT II (1990) all tube 350watt head.

Support:
I needed to replace the emblem plate on the front. Mine was plastic and it had cracked. The company was great. Not only was I able to get a new plate quickly, I was able to get a metal one. They rock!

Overall:
FOREVER! 15 years and still going strong. The only thing I "don't like" is the weight. But that just goes with the great quality of the workmanship that goes into AMPEG!

Description

News
The world-renowned Classic Series Cabinets are synonymous with bass enclosures and the sound they are expected to produce. And because we know that players have different tastes, we make the configuration YOU are looking for. From the undeniable tone of the SVT-810E to the unexpected low end of the extended range SVT-410HLF, Ampeg enclosures have set the standard for decades. All enclosures feature dual Neutrik Speak-On and 1/4 in. input/output jacks. Cabinets using high frequency horns contain a variable level attenuator. To prevent overpowering and damaging the horns, a resistive bulb is wired in series with the horn for protection.
