VOX AC4 Amplifier
The Vox AC4 TV8 joins the best selling Vox AC4 range. The AC4 TV8 is just like it's bigger brother, the AC4 TV, in every way, except it's physical size. Although the amp is just as loud as the AC4 and features all the same knobs & buttons, the speaker on the TV8 version is smaller & the overall size of the combo is about 30% smaller & lighter. With the smaller speaker & cabinet, the combo produces less bass end than the regular AC4, but even so, this is still a very good sounding little amp. Ideal for home use or for a home recording set up. Here's what Vox say about the AC4 TV8 VOX AC4 TV8 Class A Valve Amplifier All Tube VOX tone to go Way back in , VOX rolled out the first AC4 amplifier. Nearly fifty years later, VOX is pleased to announce the AC4TV8 - the compact, all tube practice amp.

Compact all tube amp provides real vacuum tube amp sound enjoyment Output Power Attenuator provides full gain distortion - even at low listening levels Robust sounding 8 inch speaker developed in cooperation with the Celestion, the trusted name in speakers Distinctive "TV front" design based on a motif from the VOX AC15 amplifier from the s Bringing the AC4TV up to date The VOX AC4 appeared in as a 4 watt all tube amp, and in spite of its compact body, its true VOX tone earned it a favorable reputation. The AC4TV8 uses the classic combination of a 12AX7 tube in the modified preamp and an EL84 tube in the power amp. The power amp is driven with a Class A circuit to deliver a wide variety of tones ranging from that clean British sound to the distinctive VOX overdrive that everyone loves. Three level power attenuation In the past, the only way to achieve meaningful distortion from an amp with a single volume control was to raise the volume. The AC4TV8 provides three levels of power attenuation; 4W, 1W, and 1/10 W. Even at the minimum setting of 1/10 W, the AC4TV8 can provide that great tube distortion. This means that you can enjoy your favorite tone even when playing or recording in your own room or late at night. Speaker developed in cooperation with the Celestion corporation The rich sounding 8 inch speaker was developed in cooperation with the Celestion Corporation. A 16 ohm speaker output jack is also provided, so you can connect the AC4TV8 to a large speaker cabinet such as the VOX V412BN to perform using an even more powerful sound. Retro "TV Front" styling The AC4TV8 features the "TV front" vintage look, as used on the first AC15. This amp, which appeared in is one of the traditional VOX amp designs, and was most recently used on the AC15H1TV from the Heritage Collection. It's a stylized retro look that's also an ideal complement to today's modern decor.
