I was thinking about getting a Radial Headbone to switch between my Marsha and Slo live. What's youre experiences using two heads live? Do you suffer any tone loss running through the Headbone?
Are you talking about when both amps are running at the same time? I'm more interested in using two seperately.bonedarrell":1q9kj18i said:Headbone works great! You have to play with the polarity switch some. What sounds right at med gain changes when both amps are on high gain. I have had some "thin" moments live and then noticed the polarity switched got bumped. Just a tip to consider.

Just bought one (in the mail), thanks for the offer.bonedarrell":383t5qe4 said:I have just picked up an Egnater SS4 to switch between up to 4 heads. Let me know if you are in the market for a Headbone VT. I might consider selling mine.
Thanks for the input. Volume is not so much an issue, luckily my band mates don't mind me playing loud. I have heard mixed reviews on attenuaters.Stone Heavy Sound":273bytxq said:I use a Headbone to switch between a Marshall 6100 and a 5150, going to an attenuator, then speakers. Sometimes one sometimes two 4x12. Works like a charm and I've been running mine for about a year. It does not affect my tone, and incidentally I run it through the normal input. The buffered input DID change my tone and I did not like it. I use the buffer in the RJM Rack Gizmo anyway which sounds really good. I suggest the attenuator as it allows me to leave the masters for my (3) amps set relative to each other. I can also run the heads in their sweet spots, which is loud, but still have the ability to turn down when necessary.
