Just what I was looking for small enough to move, perfect for small to med gigs no need to haul around backbreaking rigs if you need more just line out to pa
xlr line out to pa 8 or 4 ohm output able to add extra cabinet and easy to haul and set up. This amp really rocks very loud with just 1 cabinet and pure ampeg tone
perfect finish

I am an owner of an SVT-6-10HLF and is powered by an SVT3. To be able to take this monster to practice was a job and unfortunetly I have no roadie to speak of(excluding band mates). When I opened the package and took it out and set it up I was like I don't know, but once i plugged it in, ya game over. Very happy with the sound I get and my back is happy too.
Simple and to the point.
Great looking cab and head.

I am an Ampeg guy , love the tone and run an SVT Pro with half stack for bigger gigs. I bought this as a practice amp and for small venues. I returned it due to the noisy fan. Sounds great and I like the concept but couldn't live with the fan. Picked up a 50 watt solid state Ampeg for practice
Good features, would have been nice to have a mute switch. The fan is on all of the time and is noisy.
Good value for the price. Sound awesome with 2 speaker towers.

overall, i think if you are looking for anew amp, take a look at this one, suprisingly powerful and lots of bottom. effects send-return, E.Q. i am very happy with mine and i think you should check it out!!!!
THIS AMP ROCKS!!! after a long hiatus from playing i went to the music store and played trough a pile of amps thinking the ampeg is a little 'dinky lookin number, how wrong i was! i used to play through a T>E smx 350, but this amp is so much better. i read a review saying a guy put another ampeg (matching)speaker with his, i recomend this!!!!
great quallity, great 'ampeg' sound. have used it in a recording and it comes out a treat
of course you could spend a fortune on an amp but this little sucker is worth every cent,(and more). very good amp

Well thought out. Great set of usable features (the only thing I miss is a preamp out kill switch for tuning and intermissions). Plenty of reserve power. Classic Ampeg "colored" sound.I purchased two Ampeg SVT210AV Bass Speaker Cabinets with Micro-VR Head. I use both cabs (one in front and one behind) with the amp head plugged in to the main board. Only one cab for "acoustic" and small venue gigs. I use just the Micro-VR head and a set of phones for practice at times.In a day when hybrids and urban transportation is in vogue with high fuel costs a "bring only what you need" modular approach makes a lot of sense. With the Ampeg Micro-VR Bass Amp Head and SVT210AV Bass Speaker Cabinets, the only thing I lost from retiring my big Trace Elliot was excess weight.

The Ampeg Micro-VR and SVT210AV is a lightweight wonder. After back surgery, the term lightweight took on new meaning. The problem was finding a light weight rig with good tone. This rig does the job. I played an outside gig with this rig with 2 cabs. Though I had a line out to the PA the soundman told me he didn't have to bring me into the mix. I would recommend getting 2 of the SVT210AV cabs if you play large rooms or outdoor gigs.

I have been a fan of the SVT tone for some time. I decided this would be a portable, reasonably priced way of getting that tone. I was immediately impressed with the stack when it arrived. First, both the head and cabinet were double boxed with thick cardboard and foam packing bracing. This was really nice to see. I got everything unpacked and set up and plugged in my Squier VM Jazz (4-string standard tuning). The amp has a fan that runs, but it's very quiet. You can't hear the fan once you start playing, even with the volume really low. I set the EQ flat and turned up the gain while playing. I couldn't get the preamp to clip except playing slap with it almost dimed. This may be the pickups on my bass not being that loud, but realize you won't get a tube-like distortion/overdrive with this amp...use an effect pedal for that. Anyway, I put the gain at about 3 o' clock, brought up the master volume and was very impressed with what I was hearing. The tone was spectacular. Warm, focused low-end, punchy midrange and smooth treble. It's obviously not a tube SVT, but the tone sure comes close enough for me. I messed around with the EQ until I found "my" tone, but honestly I don't think any setting can truly sound "bad" with this amp. The simplicity is what makes it awesome. With the volume level at about 3 o' clock, the walls shake and you'll want to cover your ears. I don't foresee any problems playing this with drums and guitars (I don't play in bands that are SPL competitions anyway). The build quality of this amp is also excellent; all the knobs are smooth, the connections are solid and nothing rattled when I cranked it (not that any bass amp ever should, but with lower quality amps you'd be surprised). This is definitely worth the money if you're looking for a great sounding amp with solid build quality and good portability. And oh yeah, it looks awesome too!

If you?re looking for an amp that is small enough to use as a practice amp, but powerful enough to gig with, this one has enough of the classic Ampeg vibe to make it worthwhile. The head weighs only 9 lbs, while the 210 cab weighs 25 lbs., making it easy to carry both pieces, one in each hand.The Micro-VR really does have that "round and warm" Ampeg sound. This little mighty mite - my bandmates have dubbed it "R2D2" - has got plenty of power to work in a 5 piece band (150 watts into 8 ohms), with an XLR out on the back for a line to the FOH mixer, and an option to add another 210 cab to realize its full 200 watt (into 4 ohms) potential.The EQ is straightforward and easy. I play Fenders and a Hofner Club Bass through it, and have no trouble dialing in the right sound for each.The only downside is the thickness of the Tolex covering. Seems thinner than other Ampegs and Fenders, so I bought a heavy duty amp cover on eBay. That's why I took off half a point for quality.It?s not inexpensive, but it is well worth the price.

This litle amp packs a huge punch! It's not the biggest amp ever but it has the tone and the volume that every bassist wants. If you want my advice, buy this amp. You won't regret it!
