The new [url="http://www.bugera-amps.com/EN/products/BV1001M.aspx"]Bugera Veyron BV1001M[/url] and the new [url="http://www.bugera-amps.com/EN/products/BT210TS.aspx"]Bugera BT210TS[/url] cabinet have arrived:



First Impression:

Ok, the amp looks a bit like the GB Streamliner, very well made. I have to test mor next days...

[NancyJohnson]

My guitarist uses a Bugera set up. It's very good for metal \m/

review... and a gut shot too would be awesome!

[Dood]

Just reading about the amp, it appears to have a parallel compressor circuit on board! Wow!! That's a great add and if it works like the kit I use, it's sure to be a winner! Great idea finally seen on a bass amp!

[Bo Millward]

This looks very cool, we'll have to see what price they hit the shelves at come the 7th of Jan. X

[M@23]

Name aside, these look pretty cool.

.... so a baked in compression a-la TC electronics then....

[LukeFRC]

which isn't to say this isn't a great bit of kit - just after playing a few rebel heads with their power management I'm kinda weary of this kinda stuff.

[LukeFRC]

british designed speakers too!

Who stocks these in the UK?

I'm after a new lightweight head, These look great do you know the street price?

[disssa]

Sweetwater calls 399$ for the Veyron M and 499$ for the Veyron T. I think the prices in Germany will be the same, but only in Euro: 399€/499€. What the price will be in UK?

Did anyone else clock the 'Turbosound' badge on the cab..? I would like to think it's of some significance..

I've used a number of Turbo PA rigs and have to say they were pretty tasty..

[HowieBass]

The Music Group company, chaired by Mr Uli Behringer owns (fairly obviously) Behringer as well as Bugera and Turbosound. Maybe not such a surprise then about the similarity noted since Behringer themselves like to create products which closely resemble other manufacturers.

[/quote] I thought it was interesting, typically don't see many british designed speakers used in bass stuff

[VTypeV4]

I was unaware of the Turbo / Behringer connection.. Very interesting indeed..

Turbo always used lots of Fane and Precision Devices components so maybe one of those had a hand in with the speaker side of things? Or maybe Turbo simply desiigned the cab. Who knows.

[HowieBass]

The speakers in the cabinet are designed by Turbosound. I think everything Behringer related is manufactured at their massive site in China.

[/quote]If the engineers at Turbosound had any input into the design the badging would be rotated 90 degrees, and the result would look like this:

Fair point..

[Martin E]

A 2,000 watt head and a 1,000 watt 2 x10 cabinet?

Are these good old British Imperial watts or plastic Chinese ones?

[HowieBass]

You'd hope that'd be peak, if it's genuinely RMS f**k knows what it'd be peaking at!

[eude]

Cool, I like the look of this!
How's the build quality? My experience of Behringer stuff previously hasn't been that positive, but they're built to a price.
Also, what's the sound like?

Cheers,
Eude

Where did you actually buy the head from?
