Who’s tried Karnivores?

[Shask]

Yeah, this is contradictory to most of the comparison clips I've heard. The top end is different from a V30 and/or Swamp Thang, but it doesn't sound darker to my ears. That description is more like what I hear from a DV-77.

As mentioned, the Swamp Thang has a lot of high end presence, so when I play cabs in stereo with each, you can hear more presence in the Swamp Thang, but more mids in the Karnivore. The Swamp Thang is also louder. The Karnivore could appear brighter if you perceive upper mids as bright, but the Swamp Thang has more of that > 4k range.

I think the Karnivore is brighter than a V30 because it obviously has an extended top end to it, just doesn't have as much high mids.
