"More Bang For Your Buck!!!"

Sound: Ampeg tone to the max when paired with SVT 810E. Feature: Everything a gigging musician would need. Ease of Use: A no brainer for sure. Quality: Very denpendable. I have used it for 2 yrs and over 100 gigs with no problems. Value: Where elce could you get 1350 max watts @ 4 ohms bridged. Manufacturer Support: Never needed it. The Wow Factor: Looks very professional. Overall: I love it. Would not trade for anything elce even a SVT 4 Pro. Oh by the way I used someone's SVT 4 pro last week at a big outside gig. And I could not tell the difference in sound between the B4R and 4 pro. In fact I liked mine a little better to tell you the truth. Do yourself a favor and save the extra cash and go with the B4R. The tube preamp on the 4 pro did not make any difference in tone when cranked up at a gig.

Style of Music: New Rock/Alt., Classic Rock, Jazz, and Blues
