Rhodes/KSR Orthos NAD

[Stealthtastic]

I ordered this beast a bit after NAMM 2014, where I had the chance to meet Kyle in person and try his amps out. Unfortunately they don't let you crank the volume at NAMM, but even then, at medium and low volumes it sounded killer.

As you can tell from the pics, I haven't had a chance to unpack it properly install the tubes. I have to buy a new cab too yet, been trying to find a mesa cab locally with v30s but nothing has popped up lately. Will probably go with an Orange cab as my friend has one he will hook me up with.

Anyways, I will make some proper clips this week, and then have my buddy Paul Ozz do a real demo of it. He has a killer camera and mic setup that can do the amp justice.

Also, Kyle's customer service is really good. ALWAYS got replies within a few hours, and he kept me updated with lots of pics!

Happy NAD!!! Awesome amp. Definitely post up some clips when you get it fired up.

Congratulations! I ordered an Artemis over the weekend. I'm very excited and know I have a long wait. Hopefully your clips will satisfy and not make the wait longer.

Kyle is a great guy and is enthusiastic about his amps. I have an Orthos as well. Fantastic amp and worth the wait. I'd love to try an Colossus too.

Love my Gemini, the thing is sooo versatile it`s crazy. Every channel has so many options that you can tailor your sound exactly like you want it. I was surprised at how Marshally i can make it sound too, did not think it could do a Marshall sound, but it does. Think Randy`s tone on the tribute album, one of my favorite tones ever. I can get it close.

Thanks guys, unfortunately work obligations (100h+ weekly) have kept me from testing this beast properly yet, but it will definitely happen before December 15th-ish I hope!
