The name Ampeg originally comes from a double bass pickup developed in 1946 by Everette Hull, one of the company's founders and himself a bassist and pianist, which Hull called amplified peg. The Portaflex amp, which could be turned around and recessed into its speaker cabinet for protection and transport, was to prove the standard bass combo of the 1960s and 70s. Ampeg's Super Valve Technology (SVT) amps have also been an integral part of the world's Bühns since 1969. Today, Ampeg belongs to Yamaha, bringing together decades of experience from two major companies that are important for the history of the bass guitar and its amplification.
This is also reflected in the Portaflex series, which now includes three different transistor and two tube amps as well as several cabinets. This speaker PF-115HE is one of them. Like the other speakers of the series, any amplifier of the Portaflex series can be mounted on its top plate and stowed away for transport. The 15 cm speaker from the renowned Eminence company has a ceramic magnet, which results in a warmer basic sound than, for example, with a neodymium magnet, which goes very well with the amps of the series. This can be further influenced by the 1-inch tweeter driver, which can be adjusted in three stages. All in all, the speaker covers a wide frequency spectrum from 50 Hz to 17 kHz, and all this with the usual Ampeg sound in high-quality manufacturing.
