I watched several videos where the guy went through most if not all of the Egnater modules. What I want to know is do they all really sound different? The one thing that immediately turned me off about the Randall stuff when that came out was that all the modules sounded very similar but with...

How would you describe the sound of KT77's? Do you prefer them?

If I only want to use the 6L6 or EL34 side of the blend knob, could I replace the tubes with a quad of the same type? Like run all 6L6's or all EL34's?

My Elmwood Modena 19" rackmount arrived today. I spent about 2 hours with it so far. Definitely a cool layout of the controls and the external bias is nice to have. Very lightweight and easy to carry around. First thing I checked out was the clean channel. I was immediately impressed. It has a...

I've accepted that I'm kind of a sucky player so I didn't post this to get feedback on my playing. I just created a quick little improv to get some help with my tone and recording. Here's the details of my recording gear and process: BOSS BR600 SM57 miced pointing at an angle to the speaker No...

I have a 2x12 cab that I use between my Bogner, Marshall DSL & JCM800, Egnater and Mesa heads. I recently did some more experimenting with the G12T75's and found that the DSL sounds better with G12T75's. I was thinking about putting either two G12T75's OR one V30 and one G12T75 in my 2x12 cab. I...

I don't think I've ever played one before, or as far as I can remember. What makes these amps so great? Are they worth the prices they fetch these days?

Egnater Renegade 60w 1x12 Combo. I suck at recording but I'll try my best to post something worthwhile for the forum. Marshall DSL100 I'm sure the DSL needs no introduction, but let me tell you about the Renegade. When I first tried an Egnater, they had a Tourmaster head and combo. I...

I'm still kind of disgusted with them and the Fryette/VHT name dispute. I'm not sure why, but I suppose it's out of loyalty to Fryette whome I think makes world-class amps and has excellent customer support. Anyway, I got to try this head out on a Diezel 4x12 cab using a single coil strat and a...

What are your opinions on the Rocktron Prophesy II preamp? How is the tone and value compared to other preamps? Would it sound good through a Mesa or Engl power amp?

This thread is for the collection of comments about Eminence speakers you've used. While Eminence provides an excellent descriptive chart on their website, it would be much more helpful to hear from people who've used them in different cabs and amps. Please post your reviews of your favorite...

What are your thoughts on these? I finally went to play a couple of these today. I played a head and a combo. The head had 3 modules and the combo had two. All of the modules were different. The modules I played were: blackface, tweed, plexi, xtc & ultra. The amp was pretty easy to dial in and...

How did James Hetfield connect his Mesa Power amp to his JCM800?

I don't give a shit what anyone says about it but I think Tim "The Ripper" Owens is awesome. That whole album rocks! Check out these vocals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iAbn97vcio

Just ordered a new matched quad of Valve Art EL34's and duo of KT88's for $90. I've heard good things about these tubes. Considering the price, I think I just scored a pretty good deal. Anyone use Valve Arts before?

What's your opinion of this speaker?

Mesa says they use Celestion Vintage 30's, but is there something different about the V30's they use with the Black Shadow sticker and Celestion V30's? My recto cab came with Celestion V30's but have the black shadow sticker on them. They sound like V30's to me, but I haven't directly compared...

Son of a bitch! I blew another fuse. What the hell am I doing wrong? I have my multimeter set to 200MA and when it's hooked up to the bias probe, I get the right reading, but when I try to measure the plate voltage and touch the 3rd pin, there's a spark, pop and my fuse keeps getting blown. I...

While shopping for an affordable bias probe, I came across the Amp-Head bias probe that has a switch to let you test plate voltage. Is this really necessary for the average amp user, or will a bias probe be enough just for replacing tubes in your amps?

Can someone provide a quick step-by-stop of how to bias a JCM 800 2203 reissue? Do I need a bias kit or just the multimeter?
