Ampeg sound without the broken back
I bought one of these to match my Ampeg micro VR head, with turned out to be a great rig for smaller situations. The tone of this cab is really great, and very close to the big brother, Ampeg 810 "fridge" cabinet. It does not have huge low end, although that isn´t what I expected from a sealed 210 cabinet. It does, however, have very nice low mids and makes for a great cab for recording, bar gigs, practicing, or quenching your thirst for vintage ampeg sound, especially with the matching head.
I eventually got another one, and stacking them vertically made them into a great 410 without too much hassle to move around. I sold them to fund another ported cab, since I found the lack of deep low end didn´t suit my needs at the time. I miss these cabs now.
I would recommend this to anyone who wants a lightweight cab with a classic ampeg sound.
I would not recommend it to anyone who plans on using it on bigger shows without PA-support.

Nice and light
I don't have a larger SVT cab to compare the sound directly to, but it sounds nice in and of itself anyway. I was pleasantly surprised by how light it actually is as well. Some feet on the side might have useful for stacking.

Good sounding cab
Been running it with Ampeg micro vr mostly,
but lately two of these with Hartke 3500.
Suprising how much such a small cab can produce that low end boom when needed. These are keeper cabs. The best part is that its a LOT easier to move around than a full size Ampeg fridge.
