ashdown vs ampeg

[leakepeter]

Hi guys need a quick answer as my church broke an amp and we found a sale on ampeg and ashdown amps, it does not matter which specific amp or head but what brand makes better bass amps in general.

thanks

IMO both are solid. Overall, Ampeg has more to offer with the newer lightweight amps they have in addition to their variety of amps in the SVT family. The MAG series from Ashdown is OK, but you're better off going with ABM stuff.

Both make great pro gear, and affordable budget gear. So, it all depends on which models you're talking about.

It seems you can get darn good deals on Ashdown ABM amps atm.
They're good amps. So are the majority of Ampegs. So, depends on you & what u like.
