I owned both but no longer have either. I have the JJ jr, SS100, and Marsha 100w. But I am curious in the differences in the JJ vs BE.
I have read and found that the JBE is basically HBE, C45, Sat and that makes sense to me. I also know the JJ has a .0068 vs .0047 depth. But what I am curious about is that on all of my Be or Marsha amps, when I switch to HBE is gets noisy because of the added gain. Then add in Sat on top of that and its kind of hard to control. So you turn the gain down. But on a JJ I dont need to turn the gain down really. Its quieter and more under control.
Why is this? And am I correct in saying the JJ is BE- HBE, C45, Sat?
What about the preamp filtering? SS and JJ have 16uf. I forget what the BE has.
