So running instrument level into line level won’t matter? Just curious if it will affect the sound deeply. No pun intended.

Hey all! Running a Mesa Mark V:25 into a Bogner 412st cab and it's absolutely ridiculous... just gorgeous (might swap out the V30's for Creambacks, but that's for another time). Got an oversized Vboutique cab with lovely Celestion Alnico Cream... also great by itself as I can adjust the EQ on...

Wanna trade my two v30's for your Alnico Creams? :)

Odd question for any Lexicon LXP-1 or LXP-5 users: How do you rack/mount/shelve your units? I grabbed these two beasts up (and they are awesome), but as I think of ways to secure them, going beyond the traditional rack shelf (universal or the original Lexicon shelf) I was wondering if there's...

Woke up this morning and had to do something apparently... Enjoy! (been doing quite a few of these lately, and another one yesterday too...) EDIT: totally misspelled 'wonderfully' in the vid... dammit...

They are both great... the direct out with the cab sims into a FRFR (PA) system is going to sound great and easy to tweak in the global Direct Out EQ if you make a patch on something different and need to adjust to a new speaker system. Stage outs with a Stealth gonna want a regular guitar...

Yes, I do use it that way, but I should have said in the original post, I'm driving a couple of real 4x12's in this scenario... The Stealth is so clean and clear, so adding the NUX power amp sim, gives it a very juicy and almost compressed feel... it's great. So just wanted to know what...

^^^^ Both outs are great for doing different things... running direct you use the onboard cab sims and running stage, into a power amp and cab... can tweak each out separately with it's own EQ... it's a monster.

Hey all! Experimenting with all my gear and contrasting/comparing my ISP Stealth Power Amp with the power section of my Mesa Mark V:25 (and every mode on every channel sounds wonderfully different). Pumping my ISP Theta Rack Preamp into it and it's glorious. Switch back to the ISP Stealth...

I figured... hooked it up as a 3x12 and it sounds killer, but I'm running an ISP Stealth... think I'll make it a 2x12 with 4 speakers until I can figure something out... Thanks for all the info!

Thanks for that... So, can I just leave the 'broken' speaker in the wiring and let the other three sound off? Or is there danger of something not working correctly if that little wire is disconnected? Just curious... Thanks!

Hey all, Wiring up some newly acquired speakers in a 4x12 and as I was sliding on the connector to the terminal, it bent a little and popped out the little wire connected directly to the speaker cone... I carefully re-inserted it into the hole that existed, but there's no sound... Did I kill...

^^^^ Thanks for the info... I figured it wouldn't be the best option, but wanted to see if anyone had done anything similar... oh well! Price: I think since Mesa sold to Gibson, all the pre-Gibson models went up in price... I know the used stuff did, yeesh! I traded a lovely guitar for my...

Hey... got an extra 12au7 and wondered if putting it anywhere in the Mesa Mark V:25 would be a bad idea, or just stick to the 12ax7's... V5? I threw it in the reverb slot (v4) and effectively the reverb just disappeared... Just curious...

Most excellent... thank you!
