ivok80 Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) [size=4][font=Arial]I'm selling my Ampeg Portabass PB210H bass speaker cabinet. [/font][/size]I have replaced the original speakers with a pair of Eminence Beta-10's, which made it sound even punchier and louder! The new speakers are only a few months old and as good as new. [font=Arial][size=4]It's a really great sounding cab for live and studio and it's very easy to move around. I'm only selling it because i have too many bass cabs and need to free up some floor space in my flat.[/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]The original list price for this was $899.-, which was a bit overpriced to be honest, but it's Ampeg i guess..[/size][/font] [b]£ 250.-[/b] [font=Arial][size=4][b]Shipped to UK address only for £30.- [/b]or can be picked up from Kilburn, North London.[/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=4]Any questions, feel free to message me.[/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=2][b]Manufacturer's Description for Ampeg PB210H Porta Bass Cabinet (400 Watts, 2x10 in.)[/b][/size][/font] [font=Arial][size=2]The PortaBass enclosures delivers incredible power and volume.

SquarePlayer Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Hi I'm kinda interested in the cab but have a few questions before I can offer anything. Would you mind telling me why you changed the speakers? surely the stock neodynium ones were pretty sweet, not to mention 5kg lighter What is the impedance and power now with the new speakers in? How old is it? Any hiss? Also, wasn’t this on ebay a while back? I'm new to bass chat so wondering how the sales normally go down. Don’t mean to be completely untrusting, but is it just a case of sending the money and hoping the seller is honest? I don’t expect there is any support like there is with ebay or anything, but thought I’d ask. Thanks alot!
ivok80 Posted January 3, 2012 Author Posted January 3, 2012 Hi SquarePlayer.. just sent you a pm. sorry for the late reply. V
whynot Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) Would have thought perfect for backline in Hot Stuff! Have a bump on me. Edited January 28, 2012 by whynot
ivok80 Posted January 30, 2012 Author Posted January 30, 2012 [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I changed the speakers because i had problems with one of the neodymium drivers. there was some weird low volume distortion going on and no one could tell me why. i heard good things about the eminence drivers and they really sound great. i kind of prefer them to the neodymium one's. No hiss, sounds kristal clear.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Th cab is around 7 years old and has a few scratches, but all the handles, plug sockets and the trolley is in perfect working order.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Yes, i had it on ebay a few months ago, but then the winning bidder turned out to be from greece (although i specified uk bidders only) and i wasn't prepared to ship it there.[/font][/color] the cab is currently in kilburn (north london) and you are welcome to come and try it out. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]thanks![/font][/color]
ivok80 Posted January 30, 2012 Author Posted January 30, 2012 thanks for the bump whynot!! yes, it was perfect for hot stuff:-)
AndyB Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Hi, interested but, not that familiar with it. Trying to get something more portable, just got a markbass Little mark amp, was looking for a 102 markbass cab, how would you say this compares? Andy
ivok80 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Posted March 12, 2012 I used this cab with a little mark II and it sounded great. hard to describe.. but in my opinion the ampeg sounds deeper and has got more bottom end. the mark bass cab is slightly more transparent.. and a bit lighter.
josefpage Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Hi, Is this still available? It is 8 ohm right? Cheers Joe
ivok80 Posted April 12, 2012 Author Posted April 12, 2012 putting this cab up on ebay tomorrow (starting bid £220+£30 for delivery)
