"Ampeg tone with an Affordable price"
Without the slight hiss, this amp would be perfect. However, the tone/sound of this amp is truly of quality. Definitely worth it.
Sound
I took this thing out of the box and plugged it in right away. The first thing I noticed was a hiss - something that can be tamed by toning down the treble, but not something that can be completely gotten rid of. This was my only disappointment, it can get annoying when practicing. However, once you start playing, this thing is amazing. Best tone and thunderous lows I have ever heard out of my bass. In this aspect, the amp is amazing.
Features
Not a lot of features, but the tone makes up for it. The most useful things are the active and passive inputs and style switch, where you can get different sounds for different styles. It said it came with a mute switch, mine doesn't have one??? Oh, well. I wouldn't use it anyway.
Ease of Use
You can get any sound out of this amp, just plug in and play.
Quality
Seems extremely solid, fit-and-finish is flawless.
Value
Pretty expensive for the level of wattage, but I guess you also pay for that famous "Ampeg tone."
Manufacturer Support
Haven't had to deal with them. Don't think I ever will.
The Wow Factor
Looks awesome... just like the big 8x10's the pros use.
