An Introduction to your new Ampeg SVT-8 PRO Bass Amplifier

The harmonically rich sound and legendary performance of the AMPEG SVT are redefined in the SVT-8 PRO.

This versatile and powerful bass amplifier delivers up to 2500 watts of unsurpassed musical power, and offers

the classic vibrancy of tubes with several outstanding features.

All of the features and controls of your SVT-8 PRO are covered in detail within the pages of this user’s

guide. We recommend that you go over them before you use the amplifier.

Features

In the world of high performance bass amps, Ampeg’s SVT amplifiers stand alone. In true Ampeg tradi-

tion, the SVT-8 PRO offers you more power, performance and flexibility than any other bass amplifier in its

class. Below are some of the outstanding features of your new amplifier - features which set it apart from

the competition!

• -12DB SWITCH: A switchable input pad which optimizes the input signal level for

use with basses with active electronics or very “hot” pickups

• MUTE SWITCH, TUNER OUT JACK: Allows you to tune your bass without hearing

it through the amplifier

• 5-POSITION ULTRA LOW SWITCH: Five different settings for the Ultra Low pro-

vide the ultimate in bottom end response

• ULTRA HIGH AND BRIGHT SWITCHES: Allows you to tailor your high frequency

response in many different ways at the touch of a button

• 5-POSITION MIDRANGE SELECTOR: Choose from the five center frequency

points available to get just the right midrange voice

• POWER REDUCTION CIRCUIT: A simulated tube power amp section allows you to

get the desired amount of “tube power amp growl” at any volume

• TRANSFORMER BALANCED LINE OUTPUT: Allows you to send a high quality

line level signal to the house mixing board, a recording console, or another amplifi-

er - switchable for pre or post EQ with a switchable ground lift

• EFFECTS LOOP: Allows for virtually noise-free connection for use with you favorite

effects

• FOOTSWITCH CONTROL: Allows hands-free remote control over the Mute and

Power Reduction features

• CIRCUIT BREAKER PROTECTION: A heavy duty resettable circuit breaker pro-

vides protection against fault conditions

• SPEAKON

SPEAKER OUTPUT JACKS: For the ultimate connection and trans-

mission of power to your speakers

• ULTIMATE POWER: 1300 watts into 4 ohms, 2500 watts into 2 ohms

1. INPUT: Connect your bass guitar here by

means of a shielded signal cable.

2. -12dB: This switch, when depressed, attenu-

ates the input signal by 12dB. Attenuation allows

the Gain control (#4) to be used over a larger por-

tion of its range. If clipping is indicated with the

Gain way down, attenuation is needed.

3. MUTE: This switch, when depressed, mutes all

outputs except the Tuner Out (#24, rear panel).

This allows you to use an electronic tuner without

having to adjust any levels or turn down your

house sound. A footswitch may be used to control

the mute function as long as this switch is in the

out position.

4. GAIN: This controls the gain of the preamp.

Adjust this control until the Peak LED (#5) flickers

on strong signal peaks (but is not illuminated con-

stantly while playing).

5. PEAK: This LED illuminates when the signal

level into the preamp or power amp nears clip-

ping. Adjust the Gain control (#4) until a strong

signal from your instrument causes this LED to

flicker with the Master control (#16) set low.

NOTE: If the LED flickers frequently with the Gain

at a low setting, use the -12dB switch (#2) to

attenuate the input signal and readjust the Gain.

6. ULTRA LOW: Use this five-position rotary

switch to optimize the low end response as fol-

lows:

1: Off – flat low frequency response

2: Sub Cut – reduces frequencies below the

bass range to protect your speakers

3: Low Cut Classic – provides a low cut equal

to our original SVT Classic amplifier

4: Ultra Low Classic – contours the sound to

emphasize the low end just like our original

SVT amplifier

5: Ultra Low Modern – provides a substantial

low end boost

7. ULTRA HIGH: This switch, when depressed,

adds about a 16dB boost to the high frequencies

around 8kHz, depending on the setting of the

Gain control.

8. BRIGHT: This switch, when depressed, adds a

6dB boost to the high frequencies at 3kHz.

9. BASS: Use this control to adjust the low fre-

quency output level. This control provides +17/-13

dB at 20Hz.

10. MIDRANGE: Use this control to adjust the

midrange frequency output. This control provides

+/-20dB at the frequency selected by the adjacent

Frequency control (#11).

11. FREQUENCY: Use this control to select the

center frequency for the Midrange control (#10)

as follows:

1: 220Hz

2: 450Hz

3: 800Hz

4: 1.6kHz

5: 3kHz

12. TREBLE: Use this control to adjust the high

frequency output level. This control provides +18/

-20dB at 7kHz.

13. POWER REDUCTION ON: This LED illumi-

nates when the Power Reduction function is

active.

14. POWER REDUCTION DRIVE / PULL ON:

This control, when engaged, determines the sig-

nal level sent to the simulated tube power amp

section. This control works in conjuntion with the

other preamp controls in determining how hard

the “power amp” is driven. The Power Reduction

is engaged when this control is pulled out slightly

until it clicks.

15. POWER REDUCTION POWER: This control

sets the output level of the simulated tube power

amp section. This allows you to obtain the desired

amount of “tube power amp growl” at any volume.

16. MASTER: Use this control to adjust the over-

all level of the amplifier.

17. LIMIT: The SVT-8 PRO employs an internal

limiter to help prevent overdriving the power amp.

This LED illuminates when the Limiter is activat-

ed, indicating that the levels are near clipping.

Reduce the Master control (#16) if this LED illu-

minates continuously while playing.

18. FAULT: This LED illuminates when faulty con-

ditions cause the amplifier to protect itself against

damages. If this LED should illuminate while play-

ing, turn the amplifier off, wait ten seconds, then

turn the amplifier back on. If the Fault LED con-

tinues to illuminate refer the amplifier to a qualified

Ampeg service center.

19. POWER: Use this switch to turn the amplifier

on (top of the switch depressed) and off (bottom

of the switch depressed). The adjacent LED illu-

minates when the amplifier is turned on.
