    Technology has caught up-and in some cases, surpassed-any expectations that might come from an amp’s diminutive size. The Vox MV50 AC is an incredibly small, but powerful, hybrid amp based on the company’s legendary AC series. (The MV50 also comes in Clean and Rock variations.) The heart of the MV50 combines an analog preamp that uses a Nutube vacuum tube with a custom-designed class-D power amp. When I plugged into a Celestion-loaded 4x12 cab it sounded surprisingly big and authentically AC30-ish. Here’s a 1-pound box with a glowing VU meter cranking out some rather convincing Brit-style tones.

    All these years i've been watching John do Rig Rundowns,never knew he could play, much less this good, lol. I thought he was a sales tech. Nice little hybrid, need one now.

    I have it mounted to my pedalboard. For size and sound, you couldn't find a better apartment amp or pedal platform. 10/10 product!

      I was thinkin’ just as you !! (Because it’s got that bug clunky power surge / battery part that WILL get lost if not Velcro’d to your pedalboard 🤟)

    Tried one in a big store, guy set it up and just left us to noodle in booth, totally unimpressed sounded like a cheap fuzz pedal, my mate went back a few weeks later and got a better demo, bought one and stuck it after his Boss GT board direct out into p.a.and his sound is now amazing ! so obviously we had it set wrong to start with, the small speaker is not worth having but the amp really does the job.

  • @clarkerobertson2764
    @clarkerobertson2764 Před 6 lety +2

    I honestly would not put this up against my AC30HW2. But it does sound very good in its own right. I would definitely consider taking one along as a backup.

      I agree. I'd buy one in a heart beat if they did. But real ACs don't even have effects loop, right?

    • @lucaszembrzuski
      @lucaszembrzuski Před 5 lety

      @@ryanteacher8134 yes, they dont, but they have a nice spring reverb and tremolo.. this is a hybrid construction, there is no way they couldn't put some reverb chip or a loop after the nutube preamp and before the transistor poweramp.

    Hello, When connecting line out to PA, do you suggest a cabinet simulation DI box (hughes Kettners Red box)? or does this already have amp modeling so I would just use a regular DI box, then XLR to PA system.
    Thanks.

    Can I run this into a 4 ohm 20 or 30 watt speaker if it has a 50 watt rating?

    • @superfishially
      @superfishially Před 6 měsíci

      At 4 ohm, you get the full 50 watts. Good chance the speakers will break up if really cranked.
      I doubt really cranking would be necessary, though.
      I run my MV50 “Clean” through an 8 ohm speaker, which cuts it to 25 watts. I barely turn it up to half, and it’s more than loud enough for any venue I’ve used it on so far!

      Whatever cab you want. 16 Ohms gives you 12.5 watts, 8 Ohms gives you 25 and 4 Ohms gives you the full 50.
