JackLondon Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Hi, Anyone heard anything about these [url="http://www.bugera-amps.com/EN/products/BTX36000.aspx"]http://www.bugera-amps.com/EN/products/BTX36000.aspx[/url] Looks quite good for the price £430 Any thoughts ?

maxrossell Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Bugera is a Behringer brand. Money better spent elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamster Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Interesting physics happening inside that amp too - 2400watts input gives a more than lossless 3800watts output? With the other bits and bobs on it I think it just might fall a little short on it's claims? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackLondon Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 (edited) Well my money is deffinitely not going there, but for £430 it's not a fortune if it delivers what it says on the tin, problem is no reviews on them yet.

Delberthot Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 What about this? [url="http://www.bugera-amps.com/EN/products/BVP5500.aspx"]http://www.bugera-amps.com/EN/products/BVP5500.aspx[/url] can 4 valves really put out 550 clean watts?

Pentode Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Oh why, Oh why, Oh why did I look at this thread...? I wasted all that money on an SVT CL when I could have one of these! Doom, gloom and despair...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the look of some of their guitar heads, for the price, so who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
