I am a first-time MTS owner as of Sunday! I scored the RM100 head with three modules plus the R412CB cab for a total of $900, so I'm pretty happy about that. I have a couple of questions:
a) Is the fan really necessary? I'd like to use this amp to do some low-volume recording and I'm concerned about the fan noise getting into the tracks. It seems a lot louder than the fans in my Mesa Mark III or my Ampeg SVT-II.
b) Are there any general reliability concerns I should know about? I have seen a fair number of reports of issues and failures with this amp, and I know that a lot of people change transformers.
I have the JTM, Tweed, and XTC modules, and I am really digging the tones so far. Been wanting one of these amps for a long time.
