the great MARSHALL shootout!!!

[Lespaulnmarshall]

They all sound good! Number two needs to be set up properly though. This clip proves that the Valvestate definately is the best bang for the buck!

 

[Guitargearfreak]

Allright, that's funny, let's try

1-900
2-VS
3-JVM
4-800

you can say that again... payed €200,- for that little sucker... the only thing i've changed was the internal speaker for a T75, as i had 4 of them laying around after the speaker swap on my 1936 cabs... i did change the little tube inside as well, but that didn't make much of a difference

it's very funny, the whole combo weights as much as my JVM head on it's own

i'd say it is a very good amp for home practice and as a backup

 

[ZePot]

Yeah the Valvestate amps are great

But the lineup hasn't been divulged yet. When will you spill the beans, Dooley?

Here's a Marshall Valvstate 8200 clip. They've got a nice following for metal...

What a tease!!! I'm especially curious on #'s 3 and 4; the easy winner and loser.

I started reading this thread - then quit and went to the file to keep from being influenced by opinion... but based on what I heard, I voted like most for #3.

The 'chunk' on #1 & 4 was messy (the first thing I judge an amp by); however - #2 had a nice tight chunk, but there is some digital breakup on the recording that may influence the overall perception (listened to this on studio monitors). I can hear potential for #2 with different EQ settings. I would have loved to had access to .wav's instead of mp3.

Killer shootout, btw! Many thanks - can't wait to see what models these were (especially since I'm in transition right now).

i do have them in wav files, but soundclick wouldn't let me upload them...

Yes, those big tube amp trannys weigh a lot!

Ever tried 4shared? Fjam Online uses them for sharing .wav files. They are slow, but accommodating.

Thanks! Eagerly awaiting the details of your shootout.

 

[big dooley]

ok... in an hour or so, i'm off...
you guys behave now...

 

[JohnH]

simple really, as big D will confirm when he gets back, it's obviously:

1. 800
2. 900
3. JVM
4. VS

definately either that or something else

 

[Hamohapic]

i vote for #3, it sounded the best to me. It would be insane if this ends up being like a Marshall MG series amp. lol just sayin!!!

 

[Landshark]

Well I will take a guess.
1) 800 2210
2) Valvestate
3) JVM
4) 900

 

[poeman33]

I listened to them through speakers instead of headphones...My guess
1. 900
2. ValveState
3. 800
4. JVM

I wish you could combine some of the elements of all of them.

 

[TwinACStacks]

An Ampeg V4 can do all four of those.....

Nahhh... he did it all with IK Multimedia's AmpliTube 3 in Fruityloops Studio.
