Nope, old old story that happened years ago with different trafos, and took the shape of a "every Ceriatone tranny since the dawn of history to end of the days sucked and will suck hard"
Mmm in what way? It's an Eq thing? I didnt notice my Yeti sounding bad at band volumes honestly.
The volume on those has to do with the taper of pot Nic used. A lot of Jose type amps use a Reverse audio or linear taper. Nic uses audio which requires you to turn it up more.
Thats one of those things where a couple people had issues 10+ years ago. I know Nik is proud of the quality of his builds and he has put a lot of effort into his amps. I've asked him about adding or modding some stuff and he will advise against it if he doesn't think it makes sense or it will have drawbacks in other areas.
Yeah this won’t be a deal breaker for most people because I’m talking very loud volumes. Any tube amp I get I like to see what kind of headroom is possible. I can play very loud in my basement and stand far away enough that I don’t blow out my ears. But compared to other 100 waters I have I could easily get the 100w King Kong to where it would start to give out.. Its like driving a stick and pushing to far past the power ban in any gear. There is nothing left and pushing it more just makes the tone start to fall apart and overly compress.
I see, I guess we are talking insanely loud tho, I've tried to raise up some volume at rehearsal in Plexi NMV mode, and honestly after a certain point it gets unusable, too loud for anything. But sounded good there, so it likely wasn't the volume point you tried.
You mean the pot? Sure, no problem. But I don't see the point, the log pot makes sure you have a good amount of low volume possibilities before getting unbearable
Yup, for the reason above. In modern mode you get plenty of very cool tones at bedroom volume
