![]() ![]() The AC-10 Twin had the look of a slightly downsized version of the AC-30 Twin.Įven though the AC-10 Twin was only produced for a few years, the cabinet went through a number of revisions. You can view detailed pictures of the AC-10 chassis and learn more about its circuitry in the AC-10 "Under the Hood" web page. The tube complement included one EF86, one ECF82, one ECC83, two EL84 and one EZ81. Later models used a rotary switch for mains voltage selection. A remote "egg pedal" foot switch actuated the tremolo effect.Įarly models included a plug style mains voltage selector (see control panel image at top of page). The Vibrato channel had "Speed" and "Amplitude" (depth) controls. Vibrato was a bit of a misnomer as the AC-10 actually had tremolo, not vibrato. A single tone control rolled off the treble response in both channels. The AC-10 had a Vibrato and a Normal channel, each with two inputs and a volume control. The schematic was updated in September 1964 when 120 and 160 VAC mains voltage taps were added to the power transformer for export models. The circuitry for the Vox AC-10 was designed by Dick Denney and was published on Jennings service schematic OS/008, "AC/10 Amplifier No. The AC-10 "Super Reverb Twin," a separate AC-10 head with reverb, tremolo and a matching 2x10 speaker cabinet became available in 1963. The addition of a second speaker in the AC-10 Twin helped to bridge the gap in the Vox line between the single speaker AC-10 and the AC-15. JMI also added a second 10" speaker to the AC-10 in 1962 and created the AC-10 Twin. The AC-15 Twin was priced between the 1x12" AC-15 and the AC-30 Twin. Vox introduced a dual 12" AC-15 in 1962 by modifying an AC-30 Twin cabinet to accept an AC-15 chassis. The 34 watt, dual 12" speaker AC-30 Twin was perched at the top of the Vox line.Īfter the basic amp line was in place, Vox created a few new models from existing components. Next came the 10 watt, single 10" speaker AC-10, marketed by Vox to "the smaller group." The 17 watt, single 12" speaker AC-15 met the needs of the club musician. JMI introduced the 4 watt AC-2 (later known as the AC-4) as an entry level amp. No use on online auctions, eBay or Reverb.īy 1961, Jennings Musical Industries had laid theįoundations for a complete Vox amplifier line. © 1996 - 2023 The Vox Showroom, all rights reserved.
