All user reviews of 4/5 for the Ashdown Five Fifteen

amp transistor, 100w, a jack input, 3 outputs (headphones, speaker, line in / cd)
4potards low, medium, and gain trebble.

speaker 15 "

USE

Configuration is very simple, maybe too much, but at least we do not share in anything.
the sound is ultra round, warm, the ashdown what!
Unfortunately we can not get a good crunch dirty. it's clean ear full stop!


SOUNDS

I play a bit of everything, deathcore right now, but for the folk music, soft and quiet rock I plug my acoustic bass! wow total harmony sound is so clean and so round.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I use it for 3 4 years, I really like the 15 "that gives its really nice, value for money is interesting for a first purchase.
this is my "first amp" before I had had Laney and also Beringher, but really it is not comparable, it was even yuck ...

with the experience I will not repeat that choice, simply because I spend in the ranges above because of the scene, but I recommend it.
ps: I had a little glitch with my amp ashdown, fuses had blown, but do not worry this is not the amp is bad, it's just that I left it plugged in too long but the service is perfect belly: no extra charge and UPS pick the home and returns it! today I sometimes still let the light two days away and yet everything is always impeccable, moreover not lying, it does not heat, and does not lose intensity.

UTILIZATION

not really used.

SOUNDS

Its clear, a bit feeble (it is a "fake" 100w)

OVERALL OPINION

Yesterday, in bulky, under the porch of my house, I found one in good external condition.
I ride on the 5th, I plug: nothing: o (
I dismount.
One with the impression that the power-amp can pull up, but beware, this is not the case, unscrew the back wood, 4 screws on the flat, 2x2 screws on the edges.
The circuit is very simple, and the connection to the power supply and hp is good, with large solid terminals to be drawn to the clip, and although well re-pinch them back in place.
By eliminating the causes, I go back ... to the connector of the power cable: it has a small door accessible without removing (this is smart ....), which dislodges the nail with a fuse + and contains a compartment containing a fuse Replacement!
I change the fuse, I plug: \ o / it works without hum, clear sound on the line-in input, but lacks a bit of potato!
Here: Free Ashdown, stupidly threw for a fuse with the spare was available yet!

Transistor amplifier which deploys its 100 watts that if one connects a further baffle (it should only do 60/70 watts).
Output speaker 8 ohms, an instrument input, an auxiliary input jack format, a headphone jack format.
A 15-inch speaker.
3-band EQ, output volume, deep switch, a gain control input.

UTILIZATION

Ultra simple setup, manual superfluous.
Easily obtained a good sound quality but relatively neutral (bah transistor Ashdown anything).

SOUNDS

It perfectly having trouble all styles insofar as we speak of the low and where we can say that the clean accepts all effects pedals. I'm used to the death, thrash and pop.
It's ashdown transistor, so it is a very good clean, something else, well, you do fart effect pedals!
I used it with an OLP Stingray IV and a Fender American Standard Precision V
The only thing a little void in the sound is the sound of the amp with saturated gain is pushed ugly (well actually the transistor), we can not push the amp back without entitlement ( the transistor).

OVERALL OPINION

I used 4 years, perfect for the home (a little apartment powerful but there is a headphone output), perfect for rehearsals and small concerts indoors.
I have a 35 watt and 300 watt today, they do the same job with two more versatile.
If you do not want a single amp, it is very versatile, suitable for working hours at home, rehearsals and small gigs, it is versatile and neutral sound that I loved for years.
What I do not like this format is impractical (and heavy ... square, with handle above?! Wtf??) For transport.
The price / quality ratio is excellent, especially on occasion.
I have another config so far, but if I had a model board "an amp to do everything" I think I would take that.

Transistor amplifier
ISSUED 100w RMS (100w c well, not 65W as I have seen on some forums)
An adjustable gain, a small button that rounds deep sound (I personally use it), a bass, a middle, a treble, and an output level that plays on the output level. Here not only the rsultat blabla.
In addition to the jack, a line in + cd, a head phones and a supplmentaire speaker (8 ohms).

UTILIZATION

Setup a breeze not need instructions, or be ing her to get out of any fawn there no instructions!
The sound is obtained without difficulty DSIR rglage prcis, the buttons are trs enjoyable to manipulate soft and exude quality.
I RPET no manual included.

SOUNDS

Reu this afternoon (05.23.06) is what I needed, my Roland Cube 30w APRS, a fuller (speaker 15 ") no effects dnature my CORT A4 for me it's all good.
The range is wide enough for her but good given the minimum of available adjustable not expect a dbauche color of his j'vous says is concrete!

OVERALL OPINION

This is a notice with a drop of a few hours so it's hot, but my first impressions are good. This amp has a beautiful finish knobs, grille on the front facade Ashdown acronym (for the amateur that I am SOAD has done !!!). As against the carpet jsuis not a fan I can not see pass the suction on my amp, p
So much for the price 235 euros including postage (bought in Germany) perfect for the amateur I am.

After a few days I find that, once the volume increases with wind so it was not bad consider I pass a 7 / 10.

A 100W amp transistors with a simple connection trs trs 4 inputs: instrument, cd, headset and speaker.
For rglages is the minimum volume of 1, an output volume, three pots for bass middle treble and a button deep

UTILIZATION

The configuration could not be simpler instinctive and complements (that may be why it does not come with manual ^ ^), we get easily a good well rounded even beginners will get an easy find its

SOUNDS

I think it's good for particulirement funk jazz or even blues. I utillise with effects pedals digitec BP 200et I am pleased ^ ^. As against a background with the volume not so good it blows c

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year, the truk really well so deep that rounded sound. It certainly has some defaults (souflerie his trs typ ...) but frankly we'll have 235 wrong to private. Repeating with a battery and it provides two guitars and even in concert. I think it's a pretty good quality amp. A try before you buy ^ ^

SOUNDS

This versatile and rev it makes the sound of the bass (a Fender Custom jai Southwestern jb) I play punk rock and c foot for her lover to all acute TRS manages his property (not slam it bad ^ ^)
APRS oci I play rock, but just need to perso jai micro meter grave of my bass and a heavy sound Sufi jai
for it and slap a lot and am still there the road (for the metal useless to you quil a scaffold of distortion pedals)

OVERALL OPINION

I brief the User for 1 year and a half although the road is yours jen'm glad the only thing these quil and not rev high so it loses prsence with only 1 hp
solid level there is nothing to say RAPORT the quality and price more than most (I f and see him and he did nothing ue) the power decreases with time but if you take care (of me commem purpose ^ ^) ben ora no problem ^ ^
for beginners in a group it can be widely enough mm make it manages with a small
I personally cest if I refer this choice parsk javais pa mal hsit alpoque a fender rumble 100 w and can be again I take it lol but I highly recommend it to everyone report Prices and quality as well ^ ^ trs

Amplification transistor.
settings but with a basic preset "DEEP"
an active low input & low passive
headphone output (useful for home training!)
line-in

it's basic but that is enough.

100w real (ask my neighbor!)

UTILIZATION

The settings are basic but very quickly found the sound you want!
DEEP preset is pretty cool if you love the "bass boost"

SOUNDS

The amp is rather amazing to the point that made me adopt the brand.
use with two Ibanez basses (active, 4 and 5 string), it does not bleed even if the grave! (unlike others) provided they do not put all the knobs on the bass all the way!
Personally, I play rock-industrial-metal, nickel is I doubt the capabilities of the funk ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using 2semaines regularly (with the headphone jack!). It sounds good but the sound is not unusual
The only thing missing is even true (thank you Boss GEB!) ..
that choice again? it depends on ... Bugdet for € 230 yes (Hartke amps are not very reliable!). if Bugdet permits rather go to a gallen krueger (300 €) that sounds less "cold".
But this is a very good amp with a good finish.

I love it.

Today I still turn to leave two days away and yet everything is always perfect, indeed not lie to you, it does not heat, and does not lose intensity.
