Ampeg Adds 1×12 and 2×12 Cabinets to Classic Series

Along with the reissue of the V-4B, Ampeg has announced two new SVT bass cabinets: the SVT-112AV and the SVT-212AV. Both models are stocked with 12? Eminence LF drivers, making it the first time the company has released cabinets housing 12-inch drivers in over a decade.

  1. I have the 2×12 with a 73 svt head on top its a great light weight cab and almost puts out the same sound as the 125lb Hlf 4×10 I was using before and its narrow so your hands don’t get smashed carrying it through a doorway.
