TH 500,Ampeg 810

Simple question : Anyone tried it? How does it sound?

 

[JimmyM]

Never tried it, but the TH heads sound quite similar to the Ampeg micros, so it would likely work fine.

Incredible rig! The Heritage 810 is actually a breeze to move around..... it sounds so good, that I'm using it at all my gigs now.

The only 1 I can get my hands on is the SVT 810e.. not the heritage. Is there any difference between these cabs? And most importantly, will it fit into my 97 Mazda Lantis?!

 

[JimmyM]

Don't know about your Mazda, but I used to fit one into a 76 Toyota Carolla with 2 doors. Just folded the front seat down and wedged it in there.

Regular 810e vs Heritage: Heritage wins. The regular 810e is great, but the Heritage sounds like the old flatbacks with the awesome CTS alnicos and handles much more power, so for me it's the best cab Ampeg's ever made.

Well I cant even test it (heritage).. Guess the 810 will do

The 810 TH500 combo looks killer!

The 810 TH500 combo looks killer!

And sounds even better! Warm, quick, punchy, and some of the best mids I've ever heard in a rig. I have a couple of gk neo112's that sound great with the TH too.... but that huge tone coming from the Heritage is addictive.

Stop praising the cab I can not get!
