Nice! What are the main differences that you're noticing between the EVO IV and the Geezer?

Nice I use two OBC112 and miss tweeters

To be honest mate I’ve struggled to compare partly because I didn’t use the abm for long before I got the geezer though tonight I should be able to give it a good thrash ..sorry mate I know that’s no help at all 😂

2023 USA made speaker cabinets 

 

LB 212 

 

anyone know about these?

Tweeterless, were about 350w @ 8 ohm?

 

I got an RM212 evo2 recently, which has lighter drivers and a tweeter. Sounds fantastic, without the tweeter...

Anyone know what frequency the MID is on the ABM range? It’s between 340hz and 1.3khz I know that. 
just curious..

I've just bought an ABM 500W Evo iii - wow, it sounds amazing, why have I waited all these years.

I see I now have to wade through 46 pages of this thread to get up to speed....

Congrats! They are amazing and versatile heads--and generally much underappreciated. I'm an Ampeg tube head guy, but love my ABM (same as yours). One pre tube doesn't replace a head full of tubes, but Ashdown has the best implementation of one tube pre I've ever played. I wish I had bought one years ago.

Yes it’s great amp. I had the ABM500 Evo 1 and now the Evo 2. Love the Ashdown tone.
