maximus1 said:has anyone compared a randall recto to an egnater e-rect. i'm still searching for that great mesa tone but i can't get it from the recto and the grail i had was decent but not enough gain. the real mesa triple rectifier has lots of gain and sounds nothing like the randall recto and if it did i can't see how anyone would play one either. i've heard that the e-rect is right there with the mesa , just wondering if anyone has compared them. the recto has the worst crunch ever. its actually not crunch , i'm not sure what you'd call it but to my ears its not pleasant. i've tried c3 swaps and it seems on that module nothing can get rid of that flubby stiff bass responce

Anyways, JKD - you can put a spongy switch on an RM100. Once I get power at home and everything is back to normal, I can share details.

Pete,
looks like fun in OK..NOT! GL with that.
I have an RM50HB...but I doubt I'll be poking around inside..be interested in what it took tho? Some kind of resistance in the PSU?

basically you hook up a switch to the grounded B+ tap on the power supply with a zener diode - it can take some voltage off the B+ and 'brown' your amp up. You'd just want to double check the bias once you did that.
