Way back in 1961, Vox rolled out the AC4 amplifier.
Nearly fifty years later, Vox is pleased to announce the AC4TV—the
all-tube practice amp with remarkable self control. This up-to-date
Class A version retains the distinctive EL84 power tube of the original
AC4 amp and features a 12AX7 powered pre-amp, all driving a custom-made
Celestion 10" speaker. The sophisticated sound is unmistakably Vox,
delivering that distinctively British top-end tone.
Simple and
sexy, the AC4TV wears its pedigree proudly. The cabinetry features the
same TV front design first used on the classic 1958 AC15, and still in
use on today's AC15H1TV Heritage Series. One of the challenges
confronting an all-tube amp is retaining a full tone at lower volumes.
To solve this issue, the AC4TV features a built-in power attenuator,
with 4-watt, 1-watt and ¬-watt output levels—ensuring you never lose
that classic tube tone, even at the lowest listening levels.
The
AC4TV also adds a 16-Ohm speaker output, allowing you to add an
additional cabinet and state your sonic signature with authority.
