[QUOTE="withmittens, post: 140267, member: 3096"] Don't get me wrong, I LOVE MTS. I really do. I tell everyone about it, I obsess over my tone and endlessly tweak the possibilities it allows me. I haven't enjoyed such good tone since , well my other amp. Its a '65 Gibson Mercury used with a 2 x 12 Avatar with 1 v30 and one anniversary G12H Which brings me to the reason for this post. Maybe it's my speaker, a Reeves Fane close, or maybe it's that its a 1 x 12 combo but, yesterday when I played my Mercury with the band instead of the RM50 I experienced a fullness, an openness and responsiveness in that amp that I can't really obtain with the RM50 in it's current form. I have no idea why, and I really don't notice it until I dial in the Mercury just so. Is the Rm50 by design just a tighter, more sterile sounding power section, or is my Fane and 1 x 12 coloring the sound in a certain way? I've used the combo with the avatar and had improved sound, but the responsiveness of the old amp is just so, something...... any experience with this phenomenon? can anyone help me with suggestions t improving the Rm50?, I've considered turning it into a head and just using the cab...then baffling the combo into a Wave type cab, or perhaps opening the back, or building or modifying another 2 x 12 cab to use with it I want to use my MTS rig most of the time but I want it to be full of breathing, blooming life. What can I do [/QUOTE]
