i know many of you guys use the w/d setup ,i was hoping you could point me in a good direction for power amps ..i plan on running 1, 4-12 from the amp ..thanks for any input for this rack noob
I am interested in some recommendations as well but I keep hearing this one being recommend.ACShreds":1zf26yo3 said:i have a Matrix GT1000fx that im using with my Mark V to run W/D
I havent actually used it in the context im intending it for yet but i have tried it out with my friends Axe Fx 2 after i got it to make sure it worked. It sounded great, and by great i mean transparent. His axe presets sounded really good with the Matrix into a marshall 4x12. It didn't exactly make the Axe sound like a tube amp but it didnt make it sound any less like one if you know what i mean by it being a solid state power amp. It did sound great and had a ton of headroom. Barely had it turned up and it was well beyond apartment levels. It was also dead quiet and didnt add any extra hum or anything even with it all being inside a 1 space rack unit with its fan going. I'm intending on slaving my Mark V through it so i can go W/D and I have high hopes it'll work exactly like i want by not changing the tone i get from the Mark when it comes out in the wet signal. That way my dry and wet signal wont have any discrepancies in tone as they probly would if i was to use a different tube amp or cheaper solid state amp. Highly recommend the Matrix so far though for its price point, dimensions, build quality, and sound quality.The Hoff":2u6fbtlp said:I am interested in some recommendations as well but I keep hearing this one being recommend.ACShreds":2u6fbtlp said:i have a Matrix GT1000fx that im using with my Mark V to run W/D
