Ampeg BXT410HL4 4-Ohm Bass Cabinet with Horn (600 Watts, 4x10 in.)

Bass Guitar Amp Cabinets

When Victor Wooten and Steve Bailey were looking for full range cabinets, they came to Ampeg. These cabinets are designed for the R&B, Funk, and Jazz player. Both of the BXT Enclosures are available in 4 and 8-ohm versions. They include 1/4 in. and Neutrik SpeakOn connectors and employ the same high frequency protection found on the Classic and Pro Series cabinets.

REVIEWS
Feature:
The tone control on the rear is a superb addition. I haven't used the stackable corners or the propping bar on the bottom either, but the spring loaded hinges work well. And I like having a Speak-on jack.

Quality:
Very durable enclosure & metal grille make a sold cabinet.

Value:
Great value for the sound. As with my SVT-3 Pro head, the current selling price for the BXT-410HL-4 cabinet is now higher than what I paid a year ago.

Desirability:
In a ddition to my Ampeg (BXT-410HL-4 cabinet & SVT-3 Pro head), I own a Fender BXR 60 practice amp, I play through a Peavey TNT 115 at my church, I've played through a SWR 4 speaker amp system & I used to own a giant Kustom amp with a 18" folded horn cabinet. Nothing beats my Ampeg.

Sound:
Great resonance without distortion in most venues. Once, when playing in a large indoor coloseum, I pushed it to some distortion just too see where it could occur. I was jacked into the house, so I didn't have to play it that loud anyway, but it took quite a push to get it there.

Support:
No problems with the cabinet, so far. But I do wish that it was easier to find a speaker cover for this unit.

Overall:
I'm currently checking out the new Ampeg Porta bass amps to have something lighter to carry for most engagemnets. But I plan to keep my main system, as well.
