Aah... I've been bitten by the modular bug once again! I sold off my MTS gear a few months ago only to find myself jonesin' for M4 rig.
Anyway, I wanted to do a quick check-in to see what power amps folks are using with their M4 rigs, and if you've tried multiple power amps, why you ended up with the one you did.
A few power amps I've owned to date:
- Randall RT2/50 - loved the sound, loved the versatility & features (bias points, MIDI switching)
- Mesa 2:90 - again, loved the sound & flexibility (deep/modern/half drive voicings), disliked the weight and the cost of re-tubing one
- Carvin TS100 - good value, but sounded thin in comparison to the above (perhaps better tubes would've helped)
I'd like to see what you've all got to say about the power amps you've been using...
Thanks!
