    The Official Marshall Studio Vintage Thread Sv20h

    I have been eyeing this amp for a while now. I just casually browsed through this thread with excitement, but now I feel a bit disillusioned. In the early pages of this thread, this amp was being suggested as a low volume solution to get a real Plexi tone without breaking the bank on expensive...

    The Complete Marshall Origin Series Comparison! Johan Segeborn

    Listen with your eyes closed and pretend it doesn't say Marshall on the head. Sounds dry, anemic, and uninspiring. So many better amps to choose from in this price range. All my opinion, of course, as what sounds good is highly subjective.

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Ah, don't get me wrong. The Fryette is an amazing piece of gear and it only changes the tone at talking levels. To anyone reading this who needs an attenuator go ahead and get one, it's amazing. It's just my room is heating up like an oven and I have way too much gear all over the place... and I...

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Hey Russ! I'm thinking the KT66's are helping clean up the Jube's darker (dare I say congested tone). KT66's are supposed to breakup less and sound a bit clearer. I tried the Jube head and didn't like it for that reason, so I think the KT66's would help it a lot in that regard. I'm going to be...

    Dsl40c. $399 New.

    I'm a Prime member but I see $399. It says member exclusive but no discount. Hmm.

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Just wanted to update anyone who was following this thread. I received my Fryette PS-2 attenuator a couple weeks ago and have been experimenting with it since then. The tone is changed a lot at high levels of attenuation but it has excellent EQ adjustments to compensate. The less attenuation...

    Worried To Buy New Loaded Marshall Cabinets. (video Inside)

    Thank you very much for that. I'm now strongly leaning towards buying the Heritage G12-65 since it's said to sound identical to the original (which sounds like the non-scooped 75) and it's also made in England. I've narrowed it down to the Heritage G12-65 reissue or the Celestion Classic Lead...

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Well... just bought the Fryette PS-2. I was going to get a cheaper one such as the Rivera reactive load since I didn't initially think I would need a reamping device, but decided on it anyway since I could use the FX loop feature and might get the AxeFXIII or Kemper in the future. The Fryette...

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Is there any solid reactive attenuator that doesn't have a reamp feature? I don't need a reamping attenuator, but if that's what I gotta do then it's what I gotta do.

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    I received my Friedman Motor City Distortion pedal yesterday and opened the box with the excitement of a kid on Christmas. I played with it all day yesterday and this morning. It's definitely going back for a refund, sigh.... This pedal disgust me. It reminds me of the high-end audio scene where...

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Have you experimented with pulling two tubes and triode-connecting the pentodes? That will turn our 100W head into around 25W's.

    Worried To Buy New Loaded Marshall Cabinets. (video Inside)

    Maybe one of their dogs took a piss on the driver right through the cabinet. I'm hoping there's nothing shady with Marshall or Celestion going on.

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Well... it seems the majority of negative remarks about attenuators are for the non-reactive types which affect the tone more dramatically than the reactive ones. The itch to get an attenuator is strong still... but man, I paid less for my Superlead than the damn Fryette attenuator cost. If the...

    Worried To Buy New Loaded Marshall Cabinets. (video Inside)

    With all due respect... I'm not buying it man. There's no way the cabinet is responsible for the differences between those two loaded Marshall cabinets. If British Audio were to swap the speakers from the cabinets I almost guarantee you 95%+ of the differences would translate over to the other...

    Worried To Buy New Loaded Marshall Cabinets. (video Inside)

    I'd just like to ask for those in know... what the heck is going on here. Speakers are labeled the exact same, same head, same cabinets basically... but obviously something is not what it seems. Why does the 1936V sound so much different than the 2536. The only difference is one cabinet...

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Ok, just an update. I went ahead and ordered the Friedman Motor City drive and it should be here this week. I was initially a bit turned off by it after finding out where and how these "boutique" pedals are really made, but I suppose the only important thing is how it sounds and my need of a...

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    I searched the GC site and couldn't find any used in stock. Could you send me the link either here or via PM? Thanks a lot.

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    Yeah... I think that's what I'll have to do. I really hate buying stuff with the intention of returning it but I'm planning to buy loads of accessories and other effects pedals that I need also, so it should make it worthwhile for the merchant. I saw the Origin20H. I would probably enjoy that...

    Bedroom Levels: 100w Superlead (w/attenuator) Vs Dsl20hr

    I need some helps guys and hopefully this isn't a dumb question, but... I have a 100W non-master Superlead which sounds wonderful. I play it dimed sometimes or I run a pedal into it when I need bedroom levels. I was searching for an attenuator and realized the "best" one for my needs is the...

    Amp Comparison (audio Inside) Mg15dfx, Mg15cfx, Jubilee 2525c.

    I think I get where you're coming from now. I could have got a much better sound with the Jubilee if I used it like a non-master head dimed and then barely turn up the input gain to get enough breakup. This would have probably allowed it to open up a lot more and get rid of that congested tone...
