Looks like I'm in a minority but I love the design, especially the V12 and V7. I wasn't sure at first glance but I think they're pretty stylish and a HUGE upgrade over the PF series. I just hope they are well-built with no reliability issues.
So far the online demos haven't blown me away. I have always associated Ampeg with 'round' and 'warm' but I'm no longer sure that this is the Ampeg sound that other people strive for.
But looks-wise, I LOVE them. They manage to get away from the typical 'functional box' look. They are like a futuristic (from the 60s/70s perspective) SVT which makes them a bit retro now but in a cool way. Like something from a Gerry Anderson TV show. Great job.
