they dont sound good in 2 gain stagers. you need at least three.
Not my experience. In my amp in the Plex mode (two gain stages), it sounds really good. Ask Chubtone. He played it in that mode with the PPIMV only 1/3 of the way up and dug it...

Steve
Are you using the Lamar mod?
Yes, for sure. I have two amps (including a 12000 series 2 gain stage Metropoulos Marshall clone) with them and I think they sound great.

Steve

Steve did you ever try the Rich mod? If so, how does the Lar-Mar compare?

I haven't tried the Lar-Mar, but with the Rich Mod I think the sweet spot was 11:00 or so for me. It sounded very good there. But then it was too damn loud for early morning/late night jamming. Would be fine for gigs though. I would run a hotplate with it most of the time.
Hey whatever works is cool with me! I just get a bit frustrated with all the people who say they suck when I know that isn't the case. Many times they haven't even tried a properly implemented LarMar. Sorry if I got a bit cranky with anyone...

I haven't because I got hooked up with the LarMar first and it did exactly what I wanted...

I stand corrected. :lol: :LOL:
 
I like the Lar-Mar in my '69 spec Metro but truth be told when you crank that bad boy,you hear what you're missing with it. Thankfully I'm in a Motorhead tribute and I get to crank the piss out of it.
 
What do you stand corrected on, Jerry? You never said they suck. I wasn't referring to you at all. As far as the two gain stage Marshall and PPIMV debate, we just disagree. as Michael Douglas said in "Falling Down" - In America, we have the right to disagree. ;-)

im just messin. I had one in a 1959 clone and I did not like it at all. but Im a higher gain guy. For two gain stages I just prefer the crankage. nothing beats volume in a big garage.

I won't argue with that. :rock:
