NAD - Ampeg practice

Having lost a Belcat tweed practice amp to a "child related inspection" this week, I thought I'd pick up something a little more sturdy. Over the last 5 years I've got through that Belcat amp and a Vox practice amp. As I use Ampeg for my main amp I thought the 20w BA108 would be okay.

It arrived today. Early thoughts are it is much bigger than I thought (some negotiation has already occurred as to what can stay in the living room), it sounds fantastic (and particularly so for a £100) and it is loud. Having the dial on about 3 keeps up with a loud record.

Just hope it lasts longer than the previous 2.

no problem, Dunelm Mill purveyor of fine furnishings

quite interested in what the child related inspection was :lol:

does it do the ampeg thing well for a smallish amp?

I think so - it's obviously a practice amp but it sounds 20 times better than that little Belcat thing. I wouldn't pretend it's a 100% SVT sound but it's close enough to play along at home with.

The "inspection" basically involves the appearance of a dent in the speaker cloth and a very farty sounding speaker. Inquiries are ongoing.
