    Need Studio Headphones $200 what should I get?

    P DAW’s have nothing to do with headphones. It just sends the outputs to the audio interface and even then, you can use any headphone amp with the audio interface as long as it has basic features

    Studio Monitors for modeling gear

    I would get something that has coaxial/coincident drivers so you can have better vertical directivity (so you can move around) and avoid anything that has DSP because you don’t want any latency maybe something like Tannoy Gold 8

    Syn-30 vs KSR PA50 or Fryette PS-100

    I’m listening to this quite a bit. He has another one where he runs the ENGL savage synergy module into the return of a an actual ENGL amp and there is a difference. This dude is the real deal, he’s been making records for decades. I especially liked the way the Herbert sounded in terms of...

    Syn-30 vs KSR PA50 or Fryette PS-100

    Thanks for clearing that up. Their website mentions “auto-sensing” on the syn30 and syn50 but they fumble their words a bit

    KMA Pylon vs zuul+ vs ?

    I heard that the isp ones use downward compression/ expander vs a gate. Kinda the same thing but it could sound more natural. I would like to see an update from them. I have the decimator 2 and it’s okay for what it is

    KMA Pylon vs zuul+ vs ?

    Leave Fluff alone! Topo-Chico sent him water for free but all thoughts and opinions were his own! Wait a minute… does he still pimp those out in every video?

    Syn-30 vs KSR PA50 or Fryette PS-100

    This will just be for mainly for recording - but also casual practice and monitoring. Synergy claims that using either the syn-30 or the syn-50 will get better results from the cards because it auto-detects which card is installed and self-biases the preamp tube accordingly. To me, this sounds...

    Some Uber Ultra action

    Not my style of music exactly, but it’s good to see it cover those areas. I’m not sure how he doesn’t have screeching feedback when he lets chords ring out whereas others with potentially less gain had bad noise issues

    Some Uber Ultra action

    Alright… this dude puts this amp to the test with extended range and it sounds like it can really keep things tight with our losing the grunt or getting too brittle. He has the 150 watt version and I’d have to go with that based on what I’m hearing, even though that is only going to affect...

    Going with a Fireball instead of the Ares

    That’s awesome about the NFB knober. How well does this amp take boost/drive pedals?

    Unpopular opinion - high end amps aren't comparatively that expensive

    No worries. I was looking at it from the aspect of the studio you hired making money off the mic, assuming they also provide amps as part of their studio service. That’s cool that you hired a studio and did all the tracking there. Your band must be tight

    Unpopular opinion - high end amps aren't comparatively that expensive

    Was this your vocalists studio or a studio you guys hired? It’s a bit different when you’re making money off the gear. Still a bit crazy to me, but I’ll spend $15-20k on a set of monitors if I know they’re good. And I don’t make money from music, but I’d like to some day. So I guess it’s all...

    Unpopular opinion - high end amps aren't comparatively that expensive

    If I can get a good amp that helps inspire me to practice or get unique tones on a recording, it’s money well spent. The way I see it, I’d rather have a fully decked out Toyota Tundra and Supra than just one nice car. I was going to say one Bugatti but I didn’t know they cost $2-$15 million

    Kirk Hammett: “Maybe the age of active pickups is over”

    Same! When I first heard Confined I was like okay… these guys have something going for them. And spot on with the Gothenburg reference. I later went on to learn about At The Gates. it’s weird watching Phil do play through of songs. It looks and sounds kinda like he doesn’t dig in very much...

    NAD: another Bogner Uber Ultra Thread - clips (Metallica, Andy Timmons, Meshuggah) and early review

    I’m curious how this amp takes drive pedals and ultra low tunings. (Haven’t been able to hear your clips yet) so far, a lot of the stuff I’ve heard on YouTube makes the amp seem not so great which is unfortunate. if you listen to Reza’s Uber Ultra then go to his RedSeven Leviathan, it makes me...

    Kirk Hammett: “Maybe the age of active pickups is over”

    Phil and Nick were EMG players in those days. Doesn’t mean that they recorded with them on that album though. do you think the pickups had much to do with the tone as opposed to mic and cab, quad tracking and mixing? A greater foundation is probably my favorite by them sonically. I tend to...

    Omega Granophyre v1.5

    I’m really intrigued by this revision. They are planning to have people send their amps in to get the upgrade. That’s taking care of your people. I’m also curious if any changes were made to the shift switch. My understanding is that it is two Negative Feedback settings. Although it is...

    Low sensitivity speakers for Power Amp performance

    it’s been a few years since I’ve looked into this. I own an eminence Maverick FDM speaker, and I think it is a decent option to go for eliminating a attenuator, yet still allowing a little bit of juice to flow out of the power amp. Are there any speakers that have really low sensitivity, that...

    NAD: Custom KSR Content

    I didn’t know KSR did custom stuff like this. When I see “KSR custom” on their website, it makes me think that it’s specific to aesthetics and not circuit or tonal changes. Let’s say I wanted a Juno but instead of having a clean channel, I have a different type of high gain or what KSR would...
