    Marshall tube amp for home

    Hi everyone, New here. I am aware that this must have been discussed before and I have seen a few threads, but found varying opinions on this matter (which confused me even more, to be honest), so would like to get some advice. I am looking for a Marshall tube amp for home-playing only...

    Loud rumbling noise (DSL40)

    I've been playing my Marshall DSL40 (not DSL40C or DSL40CR) since Christmas. About a week ago, I left my amp on by accident for about 2-3 hours. Ever since then, this loud rumbling noise has been plaguing my amp. I don't know what to do! I spent a lot of money on it and I don't want to have to...

    About power transformer and DSL40CR

    Hello everybody. So, I can get a good deal on a Marshall amp (DSL40CR) but it's 220v and my house is all 110v. Could a power transformer work without creating any noise or problems? Asking cause I know how sound gear can be super sensitive to power input. Also, I could not find the power...

    Adam Jones with DSL40c, Where to Start?

    Hi all, I'm new to this forum and I was wondering if anyone had any advice for me to start with trying to capture Adam jones tones with my dsl40c. I just want a good basis of where to tweak from as I'm not great at picking out individual tones with my hearing. I have these current pedals to...

    New DSL40CR or preloved 1992 JCM900 combo?

    I've been playing guitar for a while now and it's time to upgrade my amp, which is currently a solid state vox. My two options at the moment are either a brand new DSL40CR or a second hand 2x12 JCM900 combo from the 90s. Which one would be a better amp to get?

    Marshall DSL40C clean channel boosted or crunch channel

    So I've been playing with my DSL40C and messing around with both the clean and crunch channels. I read from the user manual that they say the clean mode is supposed to be voiced similar to a plexi super lead, while the crunch mode is supposed to be more like a JCM800. My question is one voiced...

    Location of HT Fuse in the Marshall DSL40CR? (if it has one, i'm not sure)

    I think I have found the problem my amp has been having (no sound at all from speaker). When other amps have this problem, I have heard that this is because a blown HT fuse (note that I have already changed all the tubes). My only problem is finding it, anyone know where it is?

    DSL40CR (2019 model) suddenly makes a popping noise and then never any more sound?

    My dsl40cr combo (2019) made a loud crack noise and then stopped working. It still makes the usual click and short static noise when I switch channels, but’s that’s about it. In order to try and fix this, I have already changed out all of the tubes in the amp. The problem is still there. I...

    Maxed volume or maxed master?

    C19- where's it gone???

    So, I have a fairly new DSL40cr that I was determined to do the C19 mod on, only to find there are no capacitors (C20 is missing too) behind the Ultra Gain's gain pot. If they've moved it in the newer versions they must have renamed it as well because I couldn't find a 'C19' anywhere. Have they...

    Dsl40c No Sound

    My dsl40c died after I plugged a delay into the FX loop and turned the loop on. I may have also switched from pentode to triode with the amp running. I don't remember any hums or pops before death. I'm not sure if the sound went out immediately after turning on the loop or switching from...

    Dead Dsl 40c - Lights On But No Sound

    I've got a problem with my DSL 40c: it behaves like the standby is on when it's not, and it's completely baffling me what the problem is, so I'm looking for advice. The front lights are on, no but there's no sound. Flipping the power mode switch on back is the only thing that makes a pop. Here's...

    Which El34 Has Tighter Low End?

    Hi all, Just got my DSL40CV last night, loving it so far. Already swapped in a mallard ax7 into v1, 5751 in v2 & v3 and a 12ay7 in the PI slot. Also running it into a 1X12 with a V30, so a great improvement over stock already. But looking at the power tubes now, as while the amp sounds better...
