    Marshall DSL40C No reading when checking the BIAS

    Hi I'm a newbie here I have just purchased a Marshall DSL40C 2015 Model Limited edition white made in Vietnam from ebay. It was sold as making a crackling noise when you move the vol knob. When I plugged it in to test it, it was making a loud humming/crackling sound so after some research I...

    DSL 40c has 16 Ohm speaker connected to 8 Ohm jack

    I read other posts and my question wasn't answered(I think). I recently purchased a used 2013 DSL 40c- I’m the third owner. While looking at the original installed 16 Ohm 12” speaker I noticed it was connected to an 8 Ohm jack on the amp. There is 1 16 Ohm jack on the amp an 2 8 Ohm jacks. The...

    How much tone comes from the power tubes in a DSL40C?

    I have a DSL40C that I can only play at apartment levels. I think most of the distorted tone comes from the pre-amp stage since I'm able to get pretty good tone at low volume levels. But I can't help but wonder what "better" tones I'm missing out on so I was thinking of getting a Weber MiniMass...

    New Dsl40cr Or New Evh 5150 Iii 50w?

    Hey guys, in the future I am planning on getting a new amp since the one I have now (Dsl40c) Isn't doing it for me. If I can get what I want out of the amp then I will not buy a new one, but I have yet to found my tone out of it. I also really feel that I shouldn't be spending hundreds of...

    Dsl40c

    I have a carbon fiber mg100hcfx and I was wondering if I could run a dsl40c through the fx loop on both amps and then run the two amps as a head without damaging either amp or the carbon fiber mg cabinet

    Question: Do Power Tubes Always Glow? What If One Does Not?

    My DSL40C in Pentode/Full Power mode sounds bigger and different compared to Triode mode but there seems to be NO glowing in the second power tube. They are the stock EL34's in my 2014 amp. There are no indications of a bad tube otherwise. Thanks!

    Loud Cracking Noise In Dsl 40c

    I've read the threads about others who've had this problem, but no one has really given a definitive answer as to what is causing it or what is the remedy. I ordered mine on Guitar Center website and had it delivered to my house, I've had it about 14 days. When it's working it's great, I love...
