I voted Ampeg, since I haven't tried the other but own the VR. Really sounds good and I was amazed at the volume the 210Av puts out.

Acoustic 260 Mini Stack VS Ampeg Micro-VR

SAY WHAT!!??
Do you have any names so I can get looking? I didn't know such a thing existed! xD ... altough... Mexican postal service sucks ass and they would probably damage the package right after customs
Question to the owners of the Ampeg Micro-VR:
I're read a lot about using two 2x10" SVT-210AV Cabs with the Head to get more horsepower pumping. Where do you buy them separate from the head? I've only seen them both as a combo pack at Guitar Center.
I'm settling on the Carvin MB12, but I'm still open to be biased

i just bought both a head and cab today, but they were being sold as separate units. I know it's total honeymoon phase, but I'm totally loving the VR right now! It looks cool as hell, and sounds absolutely great for its size. Plus it's soooo light! I totally see it as a natural extension of my flip-top in terms of sound, and more reliable than the tubes

Hello everyone!
I'm trying to replace my clean amp (In a recent recording session the audio engineer found out that it actually distorts past noon
Why not get a more powerful Hartke. Like 250 watts or 350 watts.
BTW, pretty much all amps will distort past noon in some form or fashion unless you have separate gain and master.
I would like to stay with Hartke for my clean signal, but since I already have a 1x15" for it and most of the bars and clubs where I play (aaaaaaaalwaaaays
) have an Ampeg BA115 I'm thinking about switching to a different speaker set-up for my effects (and basically to have more than just 15"s in my arsenal)WHAT THE F**K!!How about Guitar Center? Invalid Link Removed
I swear those never popped up when I looked for them! (No pun intended) However, $800 USD for (300W?) seems a little high to me; specially compared to the 200W Carvin I'm currently interested to buy at half the price (MB12)

they're so inexpensive, ima scoop one up!

I bought the Acoustic 260 about 2 years ago. I used to play Ampeg B15s and a SWR 15. I absolutely love the little mini rig. The tone is great with my Epihone Jack Casady bass, and with my Hofner. I tried the Ampeg and didn't like it at all. If there are any of these, scoop it up. I don't think they are going to continue to make these.
