Lozz196 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Ampeg 212 - that looks nice, keep us posted on the sounds of your new rig Grissle, as an Ampeg fan (though unfortunately unable to carry them anymore) will be interested to hear about this set-up.

indiegrungesound Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I think I'm in love with this cab! I can imagine how great this would sound with my Hartke LH500 & my Ampeg PF 350! I hope these turn up over here soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musicman20 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) One of the tube experts on Talkbass has mentioned an issue with plate voltage and keeping to the original design.

Icunningham Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Being an ampeg fanboy I'm really looking forward to the 2x12, I've been looking for a smaller cab and this one really appeals to me. I just hope it's not horrendously expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand I wouldn't mind two of the some what bigger(total volume) SVT112.More lowend hopefully,and the abillity to split them for small club gigs.

I hope the prices will come down after a while.(Or ,not increase)I was comparing to the prices of Aguilar and others at Thomann. http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Berg_HD_112_210_410_212.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannybuoy Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 The cabs are well overpriced when you compare them to the SVT210AV, which is half the price of the 112! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drewk_ie Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 The Ampeg 212 cab seems expensive, I run my '72 V4 through two Ampeg 210AV cabs and the sound is incredible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 My concern here would be how powerful the D and G will be through a 212. I have a 212 which really delievers there and a pr of 2x112 which don't... so assuming the amp is what you want, I'd be looking at the cab very carefully. For that money it really should and then it will be worth it. You'll pay that money for a couple of 112's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
