Ampeg 8x10 SVT HPC Bass Cabinet
LOCAL ONLY: I'm in Charlottesville, Virginia but I can ride an hour two in any direction for delivery.
TRADES: I want a 2x15 or some combo of 15's, 10's, 12's, and 6 inch speakers, no horns. What I'm really looking for is a cab on either side of the stage, otherwise I'd keep this thing.
SALE: $550
This is a monster cab. Talked to Don Oatman from LDS about it, he said "That cab should sound really good." It does, it's just too heavy for me. This particular model is hard to find. The "HPC" or "High Performance Cabinet" came out in the Summer of 2003, and I bought this one straight from the factory in Fall of that year. It was made in the USA, and the newer 8x10's are nowhere close to its power rating.
It's 1500 watts and 3000 watts peak!!!!!
And it fits in my 2003 Ford Escape as you can see:
The cab is in great shape, very little damage to the tolex. I am the first and only owner and I haven't gigged out with it much, or even played through it very often. I bought it right when I started a college career, and am only now getting back into playing.
That said, The "towel rack" tilt handle on back was dented in the original shipping.
Also during shipping, or somehow, one of the speaker frames got a bit scratched and the paper scraped off.
Its in the pics, a little lighter area where the darker black got scraped off. There was also a tear in the grill cloth. I threw a fit about it and Ampeg sent me a new top grill cover and replacement 10 inch speaker. The damage didn't effect the sound at all, so I put on the new grill cloth and left the speaker alone. I still have that extra 10 inch speaker and will throw it into the sale.
Check out the specs:
The SVT-810HPC features six cast-frame drivers with edge-wound aluminum voice coils, and twoTractix wave-guide coaxial speakers for high frequency definition. The combination allows for a two-way bass enclosure while maintaining the infinite baffle design of the original SVT810E enclosure.
The cabinet is carefully constructed from 13-ply Baltic Birch, and is then loaded with heavy-duty custom designed cast frame speakers. The cabinet also features steel bottom handles, an industrial strength grip bar and heavy-duty wheels. Skid rails and a metal kick-plate are placed on the back of the enclosure to protect it while loading and unloading.
