    Fried speakers - SVT 4 pro w/ SVT810e

    Well you haven't done it extensively at a "I would like to hear myself over the drums" volume. Please, feel free to do so and post about your actual experience. Maybe we can share a good laugh. And, thank you for suggesting I'm an idiot since your first reply to this thread (which didn't...

    Fried speakers - SVT 4 pro w/ SVT810e

    Yes, i erred. At least I figured out why using the brain my momma got me for my birthday. I posted back, neglecting any feelings of self pride left in me, so that someone who thinks about using designed-for-bass-speakers for playing guitar thinks twice about it, and you oppose to that nothing...

    1. We are talking about bass speakers versus guitar speakers. Follow the thread. 2. Check the frequency response graphs. Pay attention to the sclaes on the left. Be aware that dB is log proportional to wattage. 3. Repent. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

    Fried speakers - SVT 4 pro w/ SVT810e

    In a sense, yes, I agree, I was playing too loud, but I couldn't have known it by ear, since the speakers didn't distort the way they would have with a bass plugged in it.

    SVT4 PRO sound cuts but comes back when playing hard

    Thanks a lot for the replies. I will try to see if the effects loop is the problem. From the schematic though, hitting the "effect bypass" button should solve the problem if the effects loop is indeed the problem, no?

    SVT4 PRO sound cuts but comes back when playing hard

    Hi! I am an unhappy owner of an Ampeg SVT4 pro head. So far, I had to change the whole board inside because the temp circuit would fail for no reason. Now, I got a new problem. When I play, the sound will cut out, but if I strike my bass strings hard, sound will come back instantly (and the...

    Fried speakers - SVT 4 pro w/ SVT810e

    Hi! I went through the stickies for this but haven't quite found an answer to my problem. You see, I seem to have blown 7 out of 8 speakers of my cab. I have an Ampeg SVT 4 Pro head mono-bridged in an Ampeg SVT810e cab. Impedance is matched (4 ohm to 4 ohm). Wattage is another...
