This is a Premier Guitar video from summer Namm. I have 2 different versions of this amp at the shop right now for evaluation. All I can say is the Superaria is the most articulate bone crushing amp Ive ever heard. Tone Freak heard this amp and was blown away, as was Jorg from Bogner. im gonna shoot a video in a week or 2 if I survive Suhr night. If you want to rattle the fillings in your teeth, then come down and try out the proto versions.

Heres a disclaimer.

DO NOT FORM ANY OPINIONS OF THE AMP REGARDING ITS TONE FROM THIS VIDEO. Its a typical crappy NAMM video.

oY!!!! Yeah not the best reference during the high gain part of the vid.

So what are those tubes? Pretty cool design and would be cool to hear a better demo.
 
:lol: :LOL: Worst demo ever!
But yeah, I read your disclaimer. This amp looks very cool. I'd love to hear what she can really do on high gain settings! :yes:
 
That's a pair of 6C33s. Those are some serious power tubes.

There was actually a DAR in James Lugo's High Gain Amp Shootout. I wasn't too impressed with the recorded sound, but that might be a different model.

+1. :lol: :LOL:

That was the wrong dude to demo that amp. Wrongest dude ever. :D
 
lol. that was a weird demo. Mike was fine, just not the right player for this amp.
I brought james that amp for the shootout. Its much improved since then and I also didnt get a chance to tweak it prior to the recording. U guys will hear its potential when I do a video for it. :rock:
 
This was in James Lugo's amp shootout clips, though not in the videos. DAR has a link to this clip on their website though sound quality is not very good:

 
Jeez I friggin LOL'd when Spazzy Mcgee started his run. WTF was that? :lol: :LOL: Cool amp FWIW.
 
i spoke to Mike today (DAR) and he wasnt very happy with the video and thanked me for posting that disclaimer.

Im tellin u fellas, this thing is a monster, u see :lol: :LOL: :rock:
 
I was lucky enought to try the prototype one day when I walked in one day. Rob and Mike were plying the DAR. It has a very unique gain structure. I did not play it with gain, but I go a chance to play the cleans. The cleans on this amp were very nice. I got some very nice spank out of it. The amp has a very simple layout, but a little tweaking with the knobs goes a long way on this amp. I heard Rob play and a couple of others on the gain channel at various settings. They all sounded nice, but very different. It was almost as if the gain structure of the amp change. If that makes any sense.
