Lots of talk of light weight and low price, anyone able to confirm it's full tube inside? I'm interested in the 50w Head..
I wonder how many people concerned about there being solid state components will immediately throw a clipping diode pedal in front of said amp.
I won't.I wonder how many people concerned about there being solid state components will immediately throw a clipping diode pedal in front of said amp.
Spoiler alert: All of them.
Thats what he said..Sarcastically. .Is it tube rectified?..if not there's diodes in there somewhere.....not in the signal chain but silicon none the less..

As someone in the thread asked, I, too, thought the Origin amps had built-in reverb, but I now see they do not. For some reason I thought it did, and so I went looking for a reverb tank, DSP, etc., but nothing to it.
I wonder about the "tilt" adjustment knob in the equalisation control section. Could that be a solid state feature connected to something like a MOSFET? Though it does have a "presence" control, I'm not sure how "tilt" works in the circuit since "tilt" control is not something I can remember being on past Marshalls (perhaps Marshall renamed it from something else). I also wonder if the effects loop is mixed into the signal via tube (I suspect it is, but no way to be sure right now).
It does seem pretty stripped down, which will appeal to a lot of people. No likes to mislead by marketing, but so far from what I'm hearing it sounds pretty good, whatever the signal path. Still, place a digital reverb in the loop (or wherever) and does the all-tube distinction even matter anymore?
Exactly.If it sounds great and you love it, who really cares? Does it overly matter??
Hi Phil.The tilt switches between “normal” and “high treble” inputs. Rather than having to plug the cord into one or the other like a Plexi the tilt allows you to choose how much of each you want, like a jumpered Plexi.
