    1987 model 2554 scandinavian version. Considering changing OT for 16ohm ability

    783-257 on mine. The one you mention is the one I want.

    1987 model 2554 scandinavian version. Considering changing OT for 16ohm ability

    The max power would be pulled from the primary the same way on all secondary taps. The transformer is like a gearbox with multiple gear ratios. Low voltage - high current at 4 ohm and higher voltage - lower current operation at 16ohm. The end results in watt would be the same. So you will get...

    1987 model 2554 scandinavian version. Considering changing OT for 16ohm ability

    Different transformer. Only common, 4 and 8 ohm wires on the secondary. I wondered the exact same thing to start with, if the 16 ohm tap was simply just unused. But unfortunately that was not the case ☹️.

    1987 model 2554 scandinavian version. Considering changing OT for 16ohm ability

    I have a 1987 Silver Jubilee 2554 combo. I am very fond of the tones I get. The only problem is that this model is the scandinavian SEM version without the 16ohm tap on the OT. 4 and 8 only. Applying to the danish, norwegian and swedish markets. The same thing as in many canadian models from...

    can a stand by switch go bad?

    What happens if you disconnect and isolate the wires running through the switch and then turn on the main? Same results? In that case it is not the switch. Noise gone? Yeah, something is not right with the switch.

    The Silver Jubilee Cult

    I bought a 1987 2554 combo last year. Scandinavian SEM model with only 4 and 8 ohm outputs. It limits the amp quite a bit without the 16ohm tap on the OT. But the stock Celestion Vintage sounds amazing. So I'm not changing the OT for now. And a future cab can always be impedance matched easily...

    Channel Bleed On '87 Jcm 800 4210 Combo

    Update: Because of other matters occupying me for the last few weeks, I had to put this on hold for a while. Until today. I found a 10uF capacitor and soldered it in parallel with C40 this morning. In order to add 10uF to the total capacitance (now 10 + 10). The problem disappeared almost...

    Why Does This Happen With This Amp?

    I've had the same thing happen to both fender and marshall amps. I like to hit a chord when switching the amp into standby. Just to hear it die a slow distorted death! It must be from starving the tubes, as their headroom is dramatically reduced when they're not getting any more food. Same as...

    Channel Bleed On '87 Jcm 800 4210 Combo

    Thanks a heap guys! When trying this amp out more thoroughly, I do hear some degree of channel bleed with nothing more than just my LP plugged in. When playing hard on the strings. Not something that takes the focus away from the distorted sound in an annoying way. But it's there. It sounds...

    Channel Bleed On '87 Jcm 800 4210 Combo

    I have a JCM 800 4210 combo from 1987 I recently picked up fairly cheap. 22nd of september of that year judging from the inspection sticker. The amp suffers from what has recently been known to me as channel bleed. Common on this amp. The problem is that the clean channel starts to "take...

    What do you look like ?? Post a pic of yourself

    No bitching, no hate for my gear (she actually wants me to teach her), no nagging... I guess I found a rare species. We got together when we were 17. And we've been together for 10 years since. :D

    :laugh2: No, that particular picture is just a few weeks old. Part of a before and after haircut picture. It was meant to look like a really bad selfie.

    Breaking Bad finale?!

    Still waiting for the download to complete and I'll find out myself. Torrents can be such a b***h sometimes. 100mbit capacity and all I get is 200kb/s tops on a bad day. Other times it's going strong. It's sad, as I really liked Breaking Bad. But I think the last season was slow and...

    Enjoying a cold local beer in Croatia after an hour of snorkeling. Me and my girl at the island Hvar in Croatia (Our vacation. We're going back some day!) Finally home in Oslo. With my upper lip full of snus.

    What is your favourite television manufacturer?

    Samsung LCD. I bought my 46" back in early 2009. I had an annoying bright white pixel in the middle of the screen at first, but they came to my house and delivered a replacement. So their customer service is great. (Here in norway at least) So in electronics terms it's from the stone age. But...

    Grand Theft Auto V

    I agree. It would be much better if they aimed GTA V towards the new generation of consoles. PC is always better

    Grand Theft Auto V

    Like previous GTA games I think it will load as you move around with a draw distance the memory can handle.

    Grand Theft Auto V

    Yeah. GTA 5's map is bigger than GTA 4, San Andreas and Red Dead Redemption combined - Grand Theft Auto 5 for PS3 News If that is true, that is HUGE!
