I have used and owned most rigs available....you can't go wrong with this combo.

I don't know if they still make them, but U.S. made ones can be had pretty cheaply on the used market. Very versatile- I've powered four cabs at once! The mono bridge into 4 ohms rating is 1000w RMS, and I don't think that's an exaggeration. Cons? It's 42 lbs., and contains no tubes. It certainly won't "hold back" any cab!  |

But, imo, so would the pf500
But the 1kW of the 7 will drive the cab, no worries

By "kill" I think he means overpower. The 610 is 600watts RMS. you'd have an amp head with considerably more watts than the cab can handle.

|  | Registered User | | | | | I had the same cab. I had a GK 700RBII head and didn't like it. I went to GC and tried it with the PF500, didn't like that either, SVT 7 Pro was the winner to me with that cab. I however tried a GK Neo 410 cab with my 700RBII and it was what I was looking for, so I sold the 610. Good luck with your search.
