Friday he's going to run it through his favorite cabs. He rates this amp pretty high and is thoroughly impressed with it. Can't wait to get my Plexi clone.

I think that might be a workshop for his business or maybe even his own house. I doubt it’s a condo. Neighbors aren’t going to put up with 125 db full stacks.

Friday will be the true test imo and I am beyond excited. I can already tell in his first 2 video that the 2x12 is a limiting factor, I run mine thru a 4x12 loaded with Vtypes and it sounds bigger than it does in his 2 videos. Still I was extremly impressed by how close the SV and Vtypes could get at times to his '73 JMP!
I bet it's going to sound legit thru his vintage 4x12 with pre rolas!

The 1987x is a little thicker and stiffer (in a good way), because 2.5x the watts and fixed bias and bigger trannies. It’s not really noticeable recorded in a band mix, a little more noticeable played clean.
Probably more noticeable in person, but in a smaller venue that low end is arguably doing more harm than good for your live mix.
The studio amps are perfect for small-medium venues.

I guess they don’t want them cutting into their 1987x sales by being too cheap once people figure out how similar they sound.

They're still around 800 euro/$ in Europe so it's not marshall but rather their American agent.. price gouging?.... seems to be the trend on everything over there now... oh, it's happening over here too, just not as severe yet.... we'll get there soon enough... it's 2020-TOO... Expect anything...

The 87 is clearly fatter but you still don't see what settings he's using. I don't consider my SV lacking in fat - I'm usually knocking the bass back. Did the same with my 50 watter.

Biden's got nothing to do with it. He doesn't rule here but we got the same problem... if you want to get philosophical, it's the western capitalism running its course and reaching the end of its run where all and everything is concentrated at one point, one owner... next they'll come for your blood...
.. ok, I'll shut up too... ha ha..
