I bet. Their Heritage series is almost a different animal. I have the Heritage 410 and it sounds great, not at all like the others. Their other 410s (all I played anyway) sucked. My Heritage was about $100 more and that $100 had a noticeable difference. I would never own a 410 Classic.
The 210av cabinet that came with the Micro-VR head is surprisingly good. I wasn't expected much low end but it holds its own. Maybe it is the Eminence speakers.
 
Ken revised the description, it's a 115.
Pure mud, no cut through what so ever as well.

very 7ender rumble-like, but if that’s your thing it’s not bad.

Im not a fan of anything larger than a modern 10” ampeg speaker.

I have a pr410, pf410 and a couple different 210’s. And the solid state BA210 combo.

favorite cab is my yorkville xc808

I actually think the Rumble series are a much better choice vs, the BA series.
To my ears anyway.

I hear ya on the 410 Classic.
Def. not for me.
 
The best Ampeg combo I've ever played was this:

The drummer who had it in his rehearsal space had rescued it from a bin. Loud, punchy and had a great drive when pushed. Not too unlike the Lab Series.
Can't remember the model but I'm sure somebody here knows. Mid-seventies, heavy as hell.

I remember these, but have never heard one.

I've heard nothing but good things about those 210s. This 212 and the Heritage have Eminence speakers (made in Ky, by the way). I have a Fender 115 with one as well and like it for a single speaker cab.

I'm particularly fond of the 212AV.
But i feel best at home with my Berg HT322.

I love the 210AVs. I have one in my studio with my PF50T and the other lives in the garage for quick loading out for gigs/rehearsals. I usually pair it with my MB200.
If I need more volume, I’ll bring both out.

This is about half of what I have in storage. I will sleep soundly tonight having attained the wisdom of the ancient pyramid builders.


That's half your stuff? I don't feel so bad now. :laugh: The first amp I bought was a Univox tube bass amp with one 15" speaker, I can't even remember what it looked like, I think it was about 30 watts.
