NAD: ENGL Powerball II 100W Head

[PrestoDone]

Just got this bad boy on Tuesday, but i wasn't able to get any pictures of it off my phone till today. Excuse the Bad quality pictures...stupid camera on phone...heh. My first impressions from having the powerball for a couple days is that its a really good sounding amp for what I do. Lots of gain but usable and I am able to dial in a really sweet tone. Alot of people like to bash the amp saying that it doesnt cut through, but I think the secret, at least to me, is that You need to have the mid-boost on so you can dial in the upper mids. I'll post some clips of the sound im getting as soon as I get a Mic. Needless to say I am LOVING this amp.

Looks cool. I had the first version years ago and I thought it was a pretty cool amp. I'd like to play the II.

CONGRATS! Great amp.

Anybody that can't get a great tone that cuts with a PBII needs some remedial training in dialing in an amp.

Man, those PBII's sound great. Pair that with a V30 cab, boost the mids and push that master v! HUGE!
It's the best thing to do with amps that have lots of gain and low end. I run my Recto the same way.
