I’m really surprised out of all of the amps that went through your hands that you landed on the archon and not something prior, then again that also shows you weren’t flipping just to flip but actually looking for something.
Seriously, heavy handed drummers Trump everything else with an electric signal!
The one big negative with mic ing amps live is that you have to run the amps much quieter. It’s nice when you can get the amp some volume and just have the mains for vocals and kick drum support.
I've played with such heavy handed drummers (in bedrooms/jam rooms), that have drowned out my 6505+ 120w at near volume 4. If you've ever pushed that amp past 4, duck for cover because it's f'ing loud!!
InfuriatingAnd that same dude is an expert on washers, all high end Suhr products, and can barely play the guitar. That's my biggest gripe....the internet has created instant experts. We all started somewhere, but WTF how is it that the clowns there that are the biggest gear "experts" are the shittiest most inexperienced players ??? Prime example - search TGP in the amps section for thread started by DiPa re Wizard MCII and how butt hurt he was that Rick wouldn't take a phone call to discuss amps.. guy goes on a rant about how he will not give Wizard a dime and doesn't approve of his business practices, only to end up getting one off the used market and suddenly they are fantastic. 40 - 50 pages deep now. You'll see my responses up front including the one that got me banned previously calling him out for being an attention whoooore. Fair enough the guy did end up posting a clip of him playing the amp, the clip only supports exactly what I'm saying. Spend your money on whatever you want, but don't confuse the ability to spend with the ability to play. Dude goes all passive aggressive on anybody that calls him out too, but I got reported
