Beedster Posted January 20, 2023 Posted January 20, 2023 I used to own one, it was nice, but the PF-50 and fliptop cab get close for around 10% of the price š 3 Quote

mowf Posted January 20, 2023 Posted January 20, 2023 6 minutes ago, Waddo Soqable said: Do they tend to overheating then?Ā š Ah ha ha. In my experience no, but as the cooling fans they use seem to expend most of their energy on being really LOUD, you could be forgiven for thinking so. 1 Quote
Reggaebass Posted January 20, 2023 Author Posted January 20, 2023 Didnāt know they had a fan, thatās good to know as I donāt use any amps now with fansĀ Quote
mowf Posted January 20, 2023 Posted January 20, 2023 Ok, Iāve got an old SVT (this will be buried with me) and a new one of those mini stack things (for a practice amp). They both have loud fans. Iād love a B15 but canāt justify it (and thatās coming from a guy with 12 basses and no gigsā¦) My point was that all Ampegs are cool.Ā Quote
prowla Posted January 21, 2023 Posted January 21, 2023 I thought it was going to be a 5W one I saw for sale either on ebay or FB. Quote

Reggaebass Posted January 22, 2023 Author Posted January 22, 2023 Thanks, Iām very happy with my V-4B but just wondered what would be an upgrade if I was being greedy š Quote
Bunion Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 I think any of the 300w valves for you for headroom and more punch. luxury would be a skunk works most likely but rare and expensive š You could buy one of my SVTās though itāll certainly blow your socks off if you use the same volume settings as the V-4B probably knock the front rows innards sideways too š¤ 1 Quote
Reggaebass Posted March 15, 2023 Author Posted March 15, 2023 Quick ampeg question, I was looking theĀ Ampeg SVT 2 Pro but I donāt like the front panel where the slots are for the bolts at the ends , do they do anything to cover these or a housing that looks goodĀ Quote

Reggaebass Posted October 16, 2023 Author Posted October 16, 2023 What a great looking setup here , unfortunately miles away from me but if youāre near Cardiff it might be worth watchingĀ https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235254930253?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=XQxmGT1zS5e&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=1wDkd4CjTIi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Quote
Reggaebass Posted November 9, 2023 Author Posted November 9, 2023 If you like the B15 thereās an interesting video here you might enjoy, quite informative I thought ,and the end part has made me dig out my PF50T for tomorrowĀ Ā Quote
