Just listened to this album today for the first time in a few years and man Marc Diglio's tone is just killer! If I remember correctly, Marc was appearing in ads for ADA around this point and the liner notes on the CD say that XYZ uses ADA preamps. BUT...... there is also a special thanks to Mike Morin the Amp Wizard. It was kind of known that Diglio was a Morin modded Marshall user and then that he had one of the Morin tube preamps that he used.
The Morin stuff sounded killer from what I remember. A friend of mine had a modded 100w JMP and then later switched to the rack preamp. My memory at the time was him telling me that Morin said Diglio only used the ADA for clean sounds and that the whole Hungry album was Morin pre's for all the distorted parts.
I'm curious because I could never get an ADA to work for me.
