Ampeg Venture VB112 vs Aguilar SL112

I have a vb112 and a 115,also had most every Aguilar cab. The 112/115 together sits in my spare bedroom as my everyday go to setup, I really like the warmth and punchy low-end I get out of it, I prefer the front porting vs the Aguilar rear port only because of my home situation that they have to sit against the wall.

They sound really good with my TH500 and I probably won't buy anything alse,of course I don't gig so I can't verify the use out in the wild, also they are super lite.

In my opinion the Aguilars are built with a bit more quality but the price also reflects don't think you would be to disappointed.

Very nice rig and thanks for sharing your experience. I've owned 5 different Aguilar cabinets over the years but they're gone due to their weight.
Your Ampeg cabs look to be a viable option for my arthritic back.
P.S. I live in CT but grew up in Yonkers.
Maybe we chewed some of the same dirt..😉
