zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Highly Portable Bass Amp, w/ Tube & Solid State Pre-Amps.

The VX2515 features a single 15 in. VX paper cone driver, matched with a horn-loaded titanium high frequency driver. The same high quality 3/4 in. plywood cabinet construction is ported and tuned for extended low-end response. The 2500 amp section supplies the combo with 250-Watts of headroom, more then enough to cover a variety of playing situations. The 2500 with variable compression, tube and solid-state pre-amps, and 10-band graphic EQ give you all the tone control you could ever need. The VX2515 travels like a pro thanks to the durable black carpet covering, stacking corners, recessed handles, steel grill and rugged casters.

"Great vibe but a quiet amp for 250 watt"

Overall: 3.5 out of 5 stars

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Great sound but very quiet compared to what you'd expect from a 250watt.
Sound
Great sounding amp but very quiet for a 250watt combo. Much quieter than the GK400RB (180watt) rig I had used prior to the Hartke. Don't expect this to be any louder than a 100watt combo. Has great low end. I think they sacrificed driver efficiency for huge bottom end.
Features
Nice EQ section but no tuner-out/mute/direct out. Very noisy constant speed fan.
Quality
Seems sturdy but I'm driving it so hard it may not last.
Value
Average for the price
Manufacturer Support
Hartke has been very good at answering questions.
The Wow Factor
Looks ok. A black face amp section like the 3500 would be nicer
