Amazingly no takers still. I guess we are finally in the era where Class D heads have fully taken over! Price dropped to £650. -
I read the initial post and knew in my head ‘in a moment I’m about to scroll down and Lozz is going to suggest an ABM’ Yep, there it is
-
Yes, without the tweeter it’s still pretty flat but rolls off at I think either 4K or 6K, so easily managed on mixer EQ
-
And that is an excellent DI too. Dare I say an expensive one though.
-
The Radial option has a built in cab-sim for this reason. Modelled off of an Ampeg B15
-
I’ve got one and they’re good, but can’t go too high on the wattage front. Radial make a similar unit that can handle 300W if you need more.
-
I mean in this case he’ll be talking about the little Orange Crush 50 so it’ll be a hard no. I appreciate an old Orange 50w valve head would be another matter.
-
Not in the slightest.

No problem, PM replied to -
I’ve picked up a super twin now so no longer looking for a swap I’m afraid.

Additional Cab Advice for Gentler Nu Classic 2x10 Cab

You’ll see the (big) orange stuff in use a lot of the time with heavier bands. It does seem to be more a company for rock/metal but not exclusively. Tiny practice amps is a different matter though
-
Now down to £700.

Now down to £600!

Still available. I cannot post/courier this, but can meet in the South East. I also have an SVT-2 PRO listed on here. Whichever sells first, I’ll keep the other.

Still looking to get this sold. Can’t ship it but can meet in the South East. Priced now at £800. I also have an AD200B listed on here. Whichever sells first, I’ll keep the other.

Hello, Due to a surprise bill, I’m forced to sell my favourite amp. I’ve never come across anything better and doubt I will. Unfortunately, with something to urgently pay off I can’t justify keeping the SVT given how little I actually give it proper use. This is the sought after mid-90s SVT, from the period where they were still made in the USA before production was moved overseas. Better transformer, build quality, etc. It has been regularly serviced throughout its life. It’s fitted with KT88s which give a great tone. It will include the 4U rackmount flightcase that’s pictured. Amp is located in KT18 Surrey. I can drive a reasonable distance to meet a buyer. Price is £550. Not suitable for posting, so collection/meet only I’m afraid. You’re welcome to come over and try it before buying. As everyone says, the SVT-2 PRO is *the* amp. Only downside is the weight!
-
No real change in weight. They were great to start but in the end the one for my right ear just wouldn’t fit without being uncomfortable and had to be forced a little. I mostly play drums and so a little bleed is good for me as it means I can hear the kit instead of having to plumb it in electronically so it’s not all bad. I’ve got a nice set of the aftermarket comply foam tips for the se846 and they’ve been great so far. Worn for ears with no real fatigue or pain. It’s only when I get to about the 6 hour mark that I get slight discomfort but it’s manageable.
-
I did previously have a pair of custom moulds a few years ago and found I only got about 1.5 years usage out of them before they didn’t fit correctly and that has somewhat put me off too.
-
I love the idea of using a Rupert Neve Shelford rack channel for bass and I think it’d sound excellent. However, the price is prohibitive..
-
On the OTB it will output 500W into 8 ohms or 4 ohms, depending on the setting you choose. However, if you select 4 ohms and then give it an 8 ohm nominal load (I.e your OBC115), then it will fire out only 250W at maximum. As the OTB has a solid state power amp it’ll be able to handle that load mismatch fine. Alternatively, use it in 8 Ohms mode and just don’t turn it all the way up. 8/10 maximum maybe!
-
I had to run my OTB at full pelt to even have a chance of being heard. I was using an SPC210 though. Point is, with a poor cab then you will have to crank the OTB!
-
Barefaced 410 would be your solution I’d suggest.
-
I finally caved and moved the fridge on but the head is definitely staying! A BF Super Twin is the new cab of choice..

I recall a band about ten years ago come to play a set at our (very) small local venue. It was just two guitarists and a drummer. They prided themselves on (their words) being the loudest band in the county. Each guitarist only had a 2x12 combo but set it at their feet running full volume straight into the first row of the audience. They cleared the venue (including me) within a minute, sadly to the detriment of the bands who were following them later in the evening. I wish I were the engineer that night because as you say, I’d have used a beer crate and angled those things back so they fired straight at their own head-height and no doubt things would have changed *very* quickly. Alas, the engineer appeased them and just raised everything else to match the guitar volume.
