chrisAngryman Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I need a little help, I bought 3 weeks ago an Ampeg Pf 350, and have used it twice now, last night in a house for a private do we played at. The problem I'm having is that at really low volume the amp starts cutting out?, this was not at high volume setting on the Amp. I've read a lot online about this happening but know one seems to have a definitive idea, so do I 1, send it back faulty for repair 2, send it back and try for full refund 3, it's just the way it is Im in favour 2 as its just doing my head in, my Marshall mb450 in comparison sounds awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumperbob 2002 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Send it back. Unless you are driving it too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidder652003 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 sounds faulty to me! Never had that with my PF 500 with gain and volume at 2 o'clock or higher, send it back, heard some units are faulty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRockinRoadie Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Just go careful with the Marshall MB series - some people have nothing but problems and others are okay. I had a lot of issues but I'm now happily running the 450H with the 1x15 cab! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lozz196 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Some have had problems with their PF amps, as some haven`t - I was one of the ones who didn`t. But, if it`s started to do this, it`s unlikely to stop, so definitely return it to the retailer, as it`s not fit for purpose. Look into the sale of goods act beforehand, so that you can request what you are legally entitled to, and make sure you deal with the retailer in writing/via e-mail, quoting this, so that for one they know that you are aware of your entitlements, and for two, they are less likely to reply in writing with inaccurate information.

chrisAngryman Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Ahh alas the problem becomes more of a problem as Hard to Find, Birmingham have gone into receivership, I've spoken to Loud Technologies and they seem to think they will just swap it for another new one, fingers crossed this one works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
