Hey guys,
First off, i've done a lot of searching on the forum to look into getting an attenuator for my VH4. My issue is that I practice in an apartment and I find the master volume to be a bit touchy and rather tedious to work with. I find myself having to change my master volume in very...
Well...scratch the search for a 1x12 cab. The reason I wanted one was because I wanted to be able to play my VH4 at bedroom volumes. I find the master volume a bit too touchy. I was told that what i'm looking for is an attenuator, but i've done some searching around here and I hear they're not...
Nice, that sounds like a solid plan actually.
I actually wanted to change the subject to power tubes. I currently use JJ KT77's and they are awesome. I was looking to get some other power tubes just to play around with. I heard that EL34's are no longer recommended for the VH4, but I hear...
Hmmm... thank you. What kind of tone differences would I expect from using a Mullard as opposed to the Diezel select at V1? Also, is a Sovtek LPS a good idea in the PI, or should I stick with the Chinese Ruby, or even a Mullard in the PI?
I sincerely appreciate the help. So would the 12AX7-B's for by V3 and the rest be just these: https://store.valvequeen.com/tubes/ruby ... ac5-hgplus
and the HG+ for high grade?
Thanks a lot! What exactly is the 12-AX7B? I'm looking at valve queen and they don't seem to have a "B", they just have 12AX7 HG/HG+, and 12AX7 AC5 HG/HG+ ?
Also, i'm just curious as to why the HG+ tubes aren't recommended for all preamp slots? I'm still new to tube amps, and my inner metal...
Thank you for all of the great help folks. So let me clarify:
Two of these for v1 and v2 https://store.valvequeen.com/ruby-ac5-1 ... l-selected
Then these for all the rest: https://store.valvequeen.com/tubes/ruby ... ac5-hgplus
I heard I need something different for the reverb? Or will the...
Thank you. I'm assuming these are the 12ax7-b you are referring to for V3-V9? https://www.tubesandmore.com/products/12ax7b-china
Would you happen to know the differences between say, the Diezel selected 12AX7-B 678 vs 12AX7 AC5 HG+, AC7 HG+, and/or The 12AX7 ACZ?
Thank you. You say the gold lions have less crunch, would that make it not a viable option for high gain, metal style type playing ? Or is it just a matter of a different tone quality.
Also, I’m looking to get hg+ 12ax7s now. Do you know anything about the 12ax7 act?
Thanks! So i'm assuming these would be it? http://www.dougstubes.com/ruby-12ax7-ac ... grade.html
Also, would there be any benefit to getting matched triodes? Also, would the HG+ be another viable option for say, V1-3?
EDIT: I seemed to have linked the ACZ, as opposed to the AC5 you...
Hmm thank you. Would you be able to describe how different the tone is with gold lion kt77s? Also, with the ruby 12ax7s, would I loose a lot the bottom end that the JJs give me, or would the fact that I’m using KT77s not have that much effect on the low end tightness?
Finally, do you recommend...
Hey guys,
First off, i'm not sure if this isn't the appropriate subforum for this topic, but I couldn't find a subforum dedicated to PRS amps.
I was looking to get some new tubes for my PRS Archon 25W combo. Apparently it comes with stock JJ 12AX7's and 5881's. I was wondering if anyone could...
Hey guys,
I was trying to find a good 1x12 cab for my Diezel head. Diezel doesn't had 1x12 cabs, so i'm trying to figure out something good with V30 speakers. Has anyone had experience with the bogner cabs?
