Here is the "fridge" in the SWR. So it's a beautiful 8x10pouces trs imposing either in volume or sound!

For the purpose of my group, I had me my old Spar aqurir combo for a body double. I first bought the head (an Ampeg SVT-350h I found a price rsonnable), then I started looking for the body. I first consider the association 4x10-1x15 (in occas' always), then I was offered the Megoliath a very competitive price dfiant: so I jumped at the chance!

I was looking for the hardware typ rock / punk with enough versatility, a warm, bright and powerful enough to compete with a drummer "tape-drive" and especially the two Mesa-Boogie (dual and triple rectified rectified) which have invested in the group's guitarists.

A priori, j'tais for designers to an Ampeg any configuration, but this opportunity adtourn me (in terms of the body), and that's good!
In terms of technical specifications, it's easy (for the user of course): 8 bowls and a 10-inch tweeter dimmable.

SOUNDS

First thing about this cabinet: the bandwidth is trs tense, more tense such as that of his cousin at Ampeg. That's what I was afraid the basis compared to a 4x10-1x15 association: I feared a lack in the bass (which are censs make 15 or 18 inches), but ultimately, it is anything, quite the opposite!

Thus, the sound is irrprochable across the spectrum. Nothing is nglig In addition, it benefitted from a dynamic and power out of the ordinary. That said, it is far from being neutral (quoique. ..) and something for all bass players who want the material in a register plutt "couillu" (excuse the term, but it is can no longer suitable.

OVERALL OPINION

I did not since trs long time, but he will not have taken longer to realize that I needed the baffle. I am not a prt of me Sparer!

It's powerful, dynamic, robust, friendly signal that sends the head, ... and even if not the most important, I find qu'esthtiquement, he jte serious!

I am far from having tried everything Contents of speakers, but this is by far the best I have tried. His cousin Mrs. Ampeg home (though my last attempt a few years back dj is the status of relay deuxime CATEGORY.

As I said prcdamment, it is exceptional for music "couillues" (rock, punk, metal, grunge ...) but in hindsight, I realize it's pretty ployvalent (especially because " He respects his head that wants him to spit).
Well, of sr, size (h = 123cm, l = 67cm, p = 51cm) and weight (70kg!!) Are taken into account: it's not for nothing called a ca "fridge"! But there again, SWR marks an important point: in addition to the two standard wheels COMPTITE, two semi-flush standard grips on the top of the rear and two recessed grips es in the monster greatly facilitate its dplacement. Thus, we can roll it without fear of breaking the wheels, and carry without fear of breaking his back or to dtruire hands. Ms. down stairs or to mount or descend scne is caviar. We almost forget that all PSE ... FYI, I PSE 15kg younger than he is saying! ;)
Regarding the price, it's clear he does not address a clientle poor, even used ... Unless like me, you do come across an opportunity 'of the century! But for those who can afford it or who demendent if such an investment is worth it, Do not hesitate one second!

And regarding the issue "with the exprience, this choice would you do?" I rponds YES! A thousand times YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!
