"Intellegent and Incredible"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I am considering purchasing the Ampeg SVT15E Bass Cabinet to complete the best bass sound.
Sound
I have had the Ampeg SVT410HE speakr cabinet long enough for two outdoor gigs. Using it with my Fender 400 Pro bass amp it has an incredible sound. Big, clear and immediate! This speaker cabinet is convenient to transport and set up. These 4 10's plus the 2 10's in the amp can produce not only the full, rich, and deep tones of the more lyrical songs but they can growl with the penetrating trebles for the more extreme rock pieces. This cabinet handled everything I could dish out including the huge tones on the E-sring. I play the Fender Jazz Bass with the pre-amp pick-up. Fantastic combination! I'm wondering just what this combo can't do.
Features
The multiple and various jacks in the cabinet back provide ample configurations. Side cabinet handles are convenient and rugged. The bottom rubber feet are large and hearty.
Ease of Use
Easy! Yes! Very easy! Very short! Clear! Very playable!
Quality
The craftmanship and design of this cabinet is simply and elegantly solid.
Value
Worth the money.
Manufacturer Support
Too soon to tell.
The Wow Factor
This is just the best practical addition to my equipment needs.

Sound
This amp is amazing. It's extremely versitle, great for playing alternative/metal.
Features
Not really any accessories, other than the wheels, but it is just a cab...
Ease of Use
Plug it in and you are ready to rip it up.
Quality
No blemishes, and I've had no problems with it.
Value
It is a bit more expensive than the average amp, but ampeg privides the durability you can trust when purchasing equipment.
Manufacturer Support
Haven't dealt with any issues at all.
The Wow Factor
When you see it in person, you'll know this thing is a beauty. I keep it in my room, and the size of it is impressive by itself. It'f real "sex appeal" comes in when it's played, and the deep bass tones kick in.

I love it. Wish I could have afforded the USA made stuff, wish it came with a cover, and a speakon cord but I love it anyway. The sounds available are really limited only by your amp and style.
Sound
The mids and low mids really punched out for my first outdoor gig with this thing. I took it out of the box and played it that nite. I also ran a 15" single out of my amp and it really rocks. I would hate to be standing in front of this with my 500 watt amp cranked all up. Punchy, Loud, aggressive, but at the same time, I can stick it in the living room and practice quietly at nite too. It sounds great with my Ampeg PF500 amp.
Features
The box seems solid, the casters are a real plus and the grab handles are great. The speakon connectors are really good. I didn't want to spend $20 on a speaker cord, but I did, and I won't be going back to 1/4" speaker plugs. I wish it had a matching cover that came with the unit. I haven't got much satisfaction out of the high range adjustment, it seems to get a hiss if it is up too high, but I will tinker with it some more to dial it in.
Ease of Use
I combo'ed it with a 15" cabinet. When I was using the 15" cab by itself, I was constantly over driving the speakers, but this cab will be hard to overdrive, and coupled with my 15" I get great lows and all the mids you can stand.
Quality
I took this thing out of the box and gigged it that nite. It is a nice made piece, but damn I wish it was USA made. Next time I will pony up the extra bucks for the good old USA craftsmen who make the Heritage series. Product seems solid.
Value
Pretty good bang for the buck.
Manufacturer Support
Don't reckon I will need em anytime soon.
The Wow Factor
Hard to beat the Ampeg name plate for sex appeal. Maybe they could make some retro looking cabs with the same technology and equipment.

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

Ampeg gear is the best and used by the most in the industry. I will never change brands again.
Sound
I replaced defective Hartke VX 8-10 bottom with it. This Ampeg 4-10 cabinet weighs 90 lbs compared to hartke 8-10 bottom that weighted 140lbs. Talk about Ampeg quality!! The Hartke cabinet fell apart, literatly. Internal bracing broke loose on two different cabinets. Must be that "Made in China" craftsmanship.
Features
Has multipal input jacks on rear as well as adjustable horn pad. Hartke cab had one plastic 1/4 inch input jack. Cheap.
Quality
90 lbs?? You can feel, see, hear......the quality. Hartke should take a few lessons from Ampeg. Built in the USA like a tank!
Value
Expensive, but well worth it. Ampeg is the best.
Manufacturer Support
Dealt with the company for information only. Very helpful. Hartke "lack of customer service dept." was another animal in itself. Stay away from them.
The Wow Factor
Plain jane look about it, with that Ampeg badge. Rattles the walls.

You can't beat the volume and punch this cab has to offer, unless you get the ampeg 8x10.
Features
I was upset that I had to buy a cable to go with it, so upset that I think it deserves an 8.
Quality
You can give this guy a hell of a beating, and it'll beat you right back.
Value
Great Price.
