    Describing amp settings.

    I prefer to have gain set between 13:15 and 14:30, depends on pickups.

    Speaker wiring help

    As it is obvious from pics, speakers are 15 Ohm. So in parallel they are approx 8 Ohms. If you plug a jack to the bottom jack, upper jack is disconnected.

    Speaker wiring help

    As far as I can see from those pics, the wiring is mono/stereo (somehow automatic selection) 1. amp output plugged into the upper jack - parallel wiring, both speakers engaged, results in 8 Ohm impedance 2. amp output plugged into the lower jack - one speaker is disconnected, just one is...

    Bugera - is it the name?

    Bugera with Infinium are biased cold. I had 1990, 6262 Infinium, 333, 333XL, Trirec. All good amps. Not to mention the money paid (around 200,- Euros each). I sold them because of the brand that bothered me. I couldn't stand having a Bugera beside the Engls, Marshalls, ... 1990 - JCM 900 Dual...

    Celestion G12K-100's are one of the best speakers around. Try to say I'm wrong.

    Savage just adds another gain stage with it's own gain control. Thrasher and Satan are different and more complicated circuit-wise compared to the Savage. There are also quite significant differences between Thrasher and Satan in a gain control circuit, despite their knobs are the same.

    Best option for headphone practice?

    Yes, the Helix is a great piece of equipment, I regret selling my HX rack. It had a bug that was driving me crazy, they later fixed it with a firmware update. But on the other hand, I don't regret selling the Axe FXIII. Umm, overkill. Depends on what one wants to do with it. And Kemper is GREAT...

    Best option for headphone practice?

    It may sound stupid, but after several attempts with small devices like Mooer, Valeton, etc. I ended up with Kemper. As a device for practicing through headphones, I'm not kidding. It is decently controllable via the front panel, there are heaps of profiles and you can connect it to a PC at any...

    Best "feeling" electric guitar you've ever played?

    I haven't owned many guitars, but I've had quite a few over the years. I ended up with a Charvel SoCal, a Schecter Super Shredder and my keeper is surprisingly an ordinary old LTD F250. Great feeling, great tone-wise.

    Redbacks in a 4x12?

    Yes. In this 3+1 combination, they complement each other very well. Redback partially dominates and EVHs complement what it lacks.

    Redbacks in a 4x12?

    I had a Marshall Mode Four with Redbacks. Good. Then I tried a combination of 2xRedback, 2xG12EVH and I liked it. But the Redback is so dominant and distinctive that I ended up with 1xRedback and 3xG12EVH and I'm happy. I probably wouldn't go back to 4x Redback.

    Ignorance is bliss...

    Little things make a big difference. My Kemper, if the room is warmer, it sounds warmer, if the room is cooler, it sounds cooler. If the humidity is low, it sounds drier, if the humidity rises, the sound is a bit drowned.

    Soldano X88 IR Inside

    I would say that there is almost everything that you criticize about Engl amps :D
  20. mcstinger

    Soldano X88 IR … I need this!

    The price is more than favorable, considering the preamp is Handbuilt in the USA. Just hand soldering that many SMD components must take a hell of a lot of time. Just kidding :)
