    Ampeg PF-50T PF-115HE stack - noisy?

    Just picked up a PF-50T on marketplace. Owner said it was barely used and mostly by the original owner before him. Then I grabbed a PF-115HE like brand new, still in its box. And grabbed a second brand new PF-115HE from sweetwater to make a 215 stack. Right off the bat I noticed microphonics in...

    Ampeg PF-115HE or PF-210HE?

    Picking up a PF-50T this weekend for a good price on marketplace. I’m between snagging a PF-115HE or a PF-210HE cab for it. I play mostly small to medium gigs, a few larger ones. All my medium to larger ones have sound support with a DI out to the mains. I also own an RB-210 combo which could...

    Ampeg PF-50T / PF-20T Studio Experiences

    Just for context: I've been using a PF-50T and PF-115HE for about 5 years now, for just practicing at home. I'm not a gigging musician, and I don't do studio work. I'm just a dude who likes to play bass. That said, I keep track of what people do with their amps, just as a way of staying...

    Ampeg PF-50T loose transformer covers

    I recently tried to sell an Ampeg PF-50T bass head. The tranformer covers appear to have been bent during shipping. See how the one on the right is just a little crooked, while the one on the left is really distorted. I refunded the buyers purchase and had him ship it back to me...

    Ampeg PF-50t microphonic transformer/power tubes

    Hi all! Just recently picked up a PF-50t from Zzounds that was labeled 'scratch and dent'. It was roughly 30% off, and they didn't provide any information about the actual condition, no photos or comments on the supposed scratches and dents. I decided to take the 'risk' anyway, but they have a...

    Mesa Subway 115 with Ampeg PF-50T?

    I live in a part of the U.S. with not many music stores within a 3 hour drive but I'm looking for good but flexible tone for classic rock, country, alt-rock, maybe some 70's prog. I've settled on the pf-50t as I do like the tubey richness, but also abhor flabby bass and don't want to be married...

    Ampeg PF-50T Portaflex mounting to PF-115HE Cab for transport?

    So I just heard from GC that my PF-50T will be shipped on 1/5/23 - hot dog! I'm considering buying the PF-115HE cab IF the head can be mounted to the inside of the cab and used for transport that way. Has anyone done this successfully without modifications to the lid of the cab? Is there plenty...

    Jensen C15N vs Eminence Beta 15a

    Howdy, folks! I'm seriously considering one of the Portaflex-style cabinets from Vintage-Blue (or maybe Fliptops) with the double baffle design, but I'm kind of at odds as to which speaker to get. The spec sheets, at least as far as the bits I can understand, like sensitivity and wattage...

    Pf-50t transformer imbalance?

    New to me Pf-50t. The right side transformer (looking from the front) gets hot to the touch after a couple hours of light/medium rehearsal. Not burning hot, just a little too hot to hold with my overworked, calloused, tradesman's hands. The left one stays room temperature cool. I just bought...

    Ampeg PF-20T, PF-50T: adapting to international power

    I've seen photos of the PF-50T main board that claim that using the amp at 100V (Japan, where I live), 120V (North America) or 240V (Europe) is just a matter of moving one cable between three sockets. 1) Can anyone confirm? Have you actually done so or you just have heard this works? 2) Is...

    NAD PF-50T Clearance Deal

    Went to GC and saw this on clearance for $324.99. Asked salesman and he said they were selling off the stock (still 899 online) so I scooped it up. Better run to your nearest GC and check to see if they have any in stock at this price. Might be worth the trip.

    Ampeg PF-50T + Markbass LM3 = !!!!!!

    Just wanted to give a PSA that this is a great combination! Everyone knows the PF-50T is a tone monster. And it's got enough volume for most/many situations, but not a rock band with a loud drummer and two loud guitar players, even with my Ampeg 810 (IME/YMMV). So last night at practice I...

    Strange noise coming from Ampeg PF-50T

    Hi TB, Just got an Ampeg PF-50T. Great amp, love the tone! (Ampeg fanboy) However, after about 15 to 20 minutes of playing, the amp starts to make a sort of rattling sound. I recorded a short clip this weekend: (kids were in the room, that's NOT the sound I'm talking about ;)) I have tested...

    Loud replaced my PF-50T

    I bought my PF-50T almost 2 years ago. I never noticed at gigs, but at home it would sometimes hear it make a high pitched feedback-like sound. It seemed microphonic, so I assumed it was one of the preamp tubes. Being the procrastinator I am, I didn't get around to dealing with it until a few...

    AMPEG: Micro VR stack or Portaflex PF-50T w/PF 112 cab?

    I’m looking to get a good Ampeg rig for smaller gigs, jams and practices. I already own a V4B with the 212AV as my main rig. I have a couple smaller early 2000s Peavey combos that I considered getting a Tech 21 Bass VR to pair with them for an Ampeg-like sound but I’m thinking it’d be better to...

    Cab for Ampeg PF-50T

Now I’m trying to figure out which cab I should get to match this amp. I primarily use an...
