hh v800 Solid State Power Amp

Description: H&H V800 Power Amp The HH V800 MOS-FET power amplifier is a legendary product as much at home in a pro guitar rig as an install rack. Used by artists such as Eddie Van Halen, Michael Landau, Keith Richards, Robert Plant, Steve Vai, Tony Iommi and Steve Stevens. This amp delivers truly professional heavyweight sound reinforcement. The HH V800 is the by word for amplifiers for all applications from recording to broadcasting, live performance to state of the art sound systems for the home. HH V800s are also sold to top flight guitarists to power their 4 × 12 cabinets on the stages around the world. Even today, the warm smooth sound produced by an HH V800 is preferred by many to the more efficient modern power amps. HH V800 was the power amp of choice for a lot of the '80s Bradshaw rack guys (EVH, Steve Stevens, etc.). Probably first famously used for EVH’s early Van Halen albums ushering in an era. But, to be honest I love playing it into vintage greenback cabs without an attenuator, with or without pedals. It feels about as powerful as a 100 watter. I’ve used it in jams alongside Plexis. The warmest friendliest solid state circuit, my Matrix doesn’t hold a candle. Legendary tone, I’ve had it 25 years. Works great. They still make these, but this is the real deal. The H&H amps are fabulously warm and inviting solid state power amps favored by 80s guitarists (thanks Bob Bradshaw) in their wet/dry/wet rigs. And that's exactly why I acquired mine. However for a guitarist it’s great in so many configurations. Direct, with or without pedals (who knew!), or Wet/Dry with prototype Palmer PDI-03 /04 /05 Speaker simulators. I’m selling those too, just ask. I’ve used it with Eventides, 2290s, Lexicon, Fractal, Gordius midi controller. Or I also ran P-Bass and Richenbacher into Bass Pod into it into 4x12 EV-12L, or Marshall Bass cab, even a D*mble 2x12 with EV12Ls. Altec loaded cabs, sounded amazing in every application. It’s a great vintage investment and what can I say it’s the real deal. The Rolls Royce of solid state power amps, best I’ve had. I don’t delegate packing, it was fun writing this, it’s a heavy duty piece of kit, still loved, used and collected to this day, the sound of a generation. Do not miss out on owning this beautiful beast whilst I wax eloquent its many virtues, and remember being a high school senior in the front row for Eddie Van Halen’s first tour in 1978….. which was where I first saw HH V800 Power Amps used with Plexis. It was mind blowing, Other counties can mail for permission to bid. This item is listed elsewhere including Reverb for slightly less because they’re faster for sellers and have better shipping. Enjoy!
