Well, this one to start with. :P Hopefully, we'll see some more info about this amp soon, getting back to the topic at hand.

Yeah, the bass amp forum has a tendency to collect cobwebs, I've noticed over the years. :P

Which reminds me that I've noticed a few people that actually did post here have been MIA for a long time. I haven't seen them since I've been on this account, and this one is a year and a half old.

That's cool. 8) I had a feeling it was going to be that price. I can't afford it, unless I hit the lottery or something. :P

It's more power than I can use @ 4 ohms with the Ampeg. The Ampeg is 600 watts @ 4 ohms, and I really don't like to exceed the rated wattage of a cab. The Super Bassman is more than I need, but I like it, and matches up great through the 2X12 cab. It's 300 watts @ any of the three ohms settings anyway.

Yeah, you could hook up another 2x12," or even a 4x12" cab with the 2 ohm switch, and really shake the walls. :twisted:

That was one reason I went with the Super Bassman over the SVT-CL head. The SVT-CL isn't really intended to power an 8 ohm cab. It set's for 4, or 2 ohms. Even in the owners manual it doesn't mention anything about using an 8 ohm cab with the head.

My Orange Terror Bass 1000 is switchable 8 or 4 ohms, but I wish it had 2 ohm capability. That would have saved me money with the cab situation, but I do like the sound of the Celestion, so I guess that worked out with that.

It's handy to have the three popular impedances to use in the head. Celestion is a damn good speaker. They haven't been around by being CRAP. Supposedly the original SVT-CL was able to do 8 ohm cabs.
