Our cabinets our made in Ohio, the speakers are made by Eminence in Kentucky. Circuit boards are fabricated in Pennsylvania. All of our metal work is made in upstate New York. The Bang & Olafsuen parts are designed in Denmark and made in the far east. Small parts such as resistors, capacitors, etc...are simply not made in the USA anymore. I hope this gives you the information you were looking for. Best, Dave B.

When I took the tour in both locations both Dave’s treated me very well. Their products is up to par and sound. That’s why I use Aguilar! Plus reliability for how many years. Not just a company that opened up yesterday and closes today!

True. What I liked (and didn't know) was that these were not just surface mounted components. Its not point to point construction but it would seem their products are more durable than surface mounted parts that can suffer from heat failure.

Top notch brand. I live in Brazil (Rio) and own a GS112 by Aguilar and its incredible

Nice look into the Aguilar shop. BTW that solder joint at 0:52 is bound to fail sooner or later. I hope it was resoldered properly...

See above. By law, you are not allowed to say that something is "Made in the USA" unless virtually ALL of the parts were fabricated in the USA. Since almost no individual components such as transistors, pots, etc...are made in the USA, assembled in the USA is the legal and proper label. Also, if a manufacturer is just screwing together a couple of sub-assemblies, you are not allowed to say "assembled in the USA". The product has to be really be built here.

well dave says in the video at 2:22 that the power amp board is a Bang and Olufsen Icepower 250ASX2 module. So it's not made or designed by Aguilar but rather is purchased and integrated into the Aguilar amp. the pre and power amp boards appear to be a mix of surface-mounted and through-hole components. and it's definitely not point-to-point construction, i doubt any bass amps are made that way.

Aguilar is the best product for me

looks like the amps and pedals are just assembled at that facility in NYC. the circuit boards for the preamps, power amps (which play a major role in the sound quality and tone) appear to be made elsewhere (maybe not in the US)...would be nice to know where exactly.

Thanks for the reply Dave, that definitely answers my question.

Nice to see something made in the US. Surprised that they are made in NYC which is expensive. What about their bass cabs?

Very impressive.

Love aguilar amps

fans galore... class d

Have they ever made a amp with the balanced out in the back .. I love Aguilar I just wish that DI was out of the way

best amps around, and the Dave's are cool. You are too Marco. See you guys at NAMM

My bass amp is made that way since I made it in a class (Specimen Guitars in Chicago). But like I said at least its not all surface mounted.

SMPS and Class D power amp module: icepower from bang-olufsen as in many other products from other companies, like GK

I saw him yesterday at Musikmesse Frankfurt!

I just got myself a Tone Hammer 350. This thing sounds hollow. The tech 21 vt bass pedal does make everything sound good. Next time I’ll just get a tube head.

The 250ASX2, while rated at 500W in BTL mode, can only deliver 200W @ 0.05% THD into 8 ohms. Besides, class-d technology is not mature enough for driving full-range speakers. They are great for subs, not for hi fi. Once class-d amps can be operated at 1 MHz switching frequency or more, then I'll consider them for Hi Fi...

Hello, you can sell Parts needed for the power stage of a bass amplifier Sc AG 500 aguilar

I think it's cute when super cool story think about their, bro.

class d digital switcher,, being checked on analog osc....

are the made in china and assembled here?

"He built the whole amp" ... no ! He just assembled some parts.

By government standards an item only has to be assembled in this country in order for a company to claim that it is "made in the US".

so,, your parts cost abt usd 60 huh

Who is this cat, Nathan Fillion's son?

She is super cute

hmm, that's a pretty poor PR effort. i wouldnt be doing this video if i was aguilar

'Dave's not here man...'

I heard those are assembled in Ohio

Rebecca is fine as HELL!

I think it is cute when bass players think people care about their tone

tsk tsk soldering

Aguilar db 751 amps are awesome but the Tone Hammer 500 is bland sounding

Really? I think it's cute when your bands live performance sounds like shit because your bassist has no idea about tone, regardless of how awesome your vintage amps and guitars sound.
