Thanks for the reply. The new Rocktron is only 150w per side at 8ohm, which isnt very much. The SLA is a good contender on paper, but it lacks the connectivity as it has banana plugs on the back. Not a super huge deal, but still wasn't designed to interface with guitar gear. Also, many of...

The world is missing a high powered stereo solidstate poweramp voiced for guitar. Today's modeling preamps require clean neutral power, as they already simluate power amp distortion in the amps they model. However, most solid state poweramps are made for PA purposes, and have frequency...

If you keep getting tube failures with the same tube in the same socket, replacing the fuse isnt going to help. You have to replace the tube or it's going to keep blowing. It's probably not a bias issue because you can bias on the hot side and still run fine. If you move the tube to a...

Hey guys thanks for the replies. I'm not trying to do anything drastic to it, like a transformer. I'm more curious about the less serious mods that involve the smaller components. The RM50 doesn't sound bad, its just that the Egnater has a certain something that makes everything sound more...

Nobody? :(

Like I said, it wasnt a totally controlled experiment. The speakers were the same; a Mesa cab with V30s. I know that tubes can make a difference, I've played a pretty good amount of amps that supported both EL34 and 6L6 and have tried them in both configurations...but the difference between...

Oh, and just in case anyone is wondering, I also tried out the 1086 in the Mod50, and there was again a pretty significant difference. I'm not sure how I feel about the general tone of the module in the first place, but the Eggie just sounded and felt better than the RM50. I didnt try...

I got a chance to compare the RM50 with an Eggie Mod50 the other day. I have a buddy who owns both but I'd never gotten a chance to sit them side by side and compare the heads. By biggest surprise was the improvement in the tone putting the Randall modules (specifically the SL+) in the Egnater...

Hey Pete, I appreciate the words of wisdom about doing amp mods. I'm well aware of the lethal voltages that hang around even after the power has been cut, which has kept me from trying anything silly to date. I was just curious whether you did any 'serious' mods; i.e. trying new component...

Interesting! Could we get any more info, or is this some top secret stuff? 8)

Interesting that they would make both the RM50 and RM80 combo's. It doesnt look like the RM80 is on the Randall site anymore either. Thanks for the info and the quick reply!

Hey guys- What is the difference between the RM50 and RM80 heads? From what I could gather, the RM80s come with larger power tubes (6550s, i think?) But with the biasing section on the back of the head, isnt it just as easy to rebias an RM50 to take the larger tubes? Are there any other...
