[QUOTE="Julia, post: 91344, member: 1784"] On tube amps? When I play full out clean, no. When I want a blues breakup I use a pair of TS808s, so yes. I've also used attenuators. It's kind of ridiculous. You spend $2000 on a 100W tube amp that doesn't sound good until you get the volume level around 100 dB so people set the levels up there and add an attenuator between the amp and cab (THD Hotplate, or if they've got money another $800 for the Ultimate) to get the volume back down to around 80 dB effectively listening to under 1 watt rms going to the speakers and complain that the attenuators color the tone. So when I'm playing when I usually do after 10 pm I just run my modeler into my near field monitors. [/QUOTE]
