Love my USA (SLM) SVT 4-PRO. The EQ is phenomenal, and the tone is HUGE, clean, clear with lots of growl and rich harmonic content. IMO, the 3-tube preamp sounds excellent. Full power is not so easily accessed, leaving some to (inaccurately) say it's underpowered.

Yes, only a 3 tube pre amp section..3 12ax7 tubes..input tube is usually a groove tube and the other 2 witch go to each power sections are reg 12ax7... Argue with me if you like, I've had mine open to change them..there are only 3 in there.. Still, legendary amp with 1200 watts at 4 ohms in mono bridge mode..

Also to add to the chatter, you would need a cable set up for bridge mode +1 +2 I believe. You can’t just move your speaker cable from a mono out and put it in the Bridge out you won’t get the proper power.

Everybody says this amp is rated at 1600 and now you 1800 watts. It is NOT! This amp is 1200 watts bridged at 4 ohms. Also, using the crossover drops the wattage considerably. The 6 Pro has 5 tubes. The 3 Pro has 5 tubes.

You also need to depress the mono/stereo button on the back to use the crossover.

I like that you like this amp but as stated before, only 3 tubes in the pre and 1200 w bridged at 4 ohms. Other than that, good video!

Also want to note if you have the SVT 4 Pro....If you want that growl...get the ampeg Classic series cabs...they have speaker breakup that gives the gnarly growl tone. I have the 410HE NON ported...it's a sealed cab and while the 15EN is only 200 watts, this is the biggest reason for the growl....it breaks up nicely! Believe me I wasted money on 2 mesa cabs...both traditional powerhouses....they dont bring the growl like the ampegs...sound good if you want a clean tone but NOT for Ampeg....trust me....dont waste your money.

Boy is that subjective. I ran my 4 Pro bridged through an old Mesa Powerhouse 410 and it was clean, LOUD Ampeg growl all day. Something those mediocre Ampeg cabs you mentioned can't do. Loud.

It has only 3 tubes. The SVT 3 pro has 5 tubes.

My Ampeg SVT 4 Pro has 3 tubes also....but Mine clearly states 1600 watts bridged @ 4 ohms...Though mine is an American made one.....maybe there is a difference if you have a chinese one? Or different year?
@mez5590 Жыл бұрын
I just picked one up yesterday and trying to figure it out. I’m seeing that you need a ‘special’ cable to run bridged.
@Kitarablogi Жыл бұрын
Yeah, it's a real bummer that Ampeg stopped shipping the necessary cable with the amp a while back.
