All tube amp, 200 W into 4 / 8 ohms (impedance switch)
Lamps: 2 x 12AX7, 1 x 12 au7, 4 x K88,
- Entry passive, active, tuner, volume gain, equalize low / med / high + a knob for adjusting the frequency of mediums (range)
- An active section with two settings, master volume
- 2 output jack hp (parallel)
- Output option with di pre or post eq,
- A filter pad to reduce the output level di if too high,
- In and out for a possible loop effect,

totally complete

The differences compared to the YBA-200 are the power tubes, and some ETAILS appearance.

Me, I turned the big logo in traynor plastoc and the original grid to offer him a black linen finish vintage (affixed to a rack custom made) sufficiently aerated surrounded by a white edging like a svt -cl ... it is beautiful!

UTILIZATION

Config fairly simple but a trick to know: after several weeks of tests not too bad, I was not really satisfied with the rendering of the beast ...
Acquired by taking the record of conscience, I groaned a remark about the EQ:

It said: Under the heading "south", the pots allow lamps to develop natural harmonics. Above this position is an addition of harmonics of the amp ... Wholesale

In practice, it gives this:

On-the traynor YBA200-2 if it is above the knobs at noon sharp, mid and low, it can hardly push the preamp over a quarter (yes), otherwise saturation type electric shaver ... And overflow of pervasive mediums. (Prefer an approach as explained below)
So go with a preamp volume to half (see slightly beyond), then adjust the equalization serious med and high, lowering from the twelve o'clock position on the frequencies that seem too forward!
Finally adjust the volume pot "range" to adjust the frequency range that suits your style and push the master ...

Ok, this is a reverse process to that which was usual, but I guarantee you that your sound will be totally different, powerful, profound, and the growl of the respondent.

I put 9 because it asked me a lot of efforts to accept it ...

And the active section bof, I prefer the full sound, but ok it can be used to obtain sound motown (knob resonant) or the reverse of the modern (knob Scoop)

but beware of the following

SOUNDS

We here in the heart of the matter:

Past few weeks of wandering sound, where the sounds were neither good nor bad, I reread the instructions and as explained above, by folding a trimming by decreasing rather than increasing the equation, we obtains a sound sick, thick, with attack and precision (sufficient to trigger the treble boost if the strings are a little entammées) and it Partiya.

Dun power perspective, my group is like rock nag mélé key 80 ', with a drummer who hits and two scratch tickets bearing the heavy artillery.

I have a cabinet ampeg svt 410 he classic into 8 ohms, and I will pierce the mix with delectation ...

The frequency of singing, guitars and drums are met, the sound is sharp and thick, it structures the pieces and made the depth of the mix ... a treat

The power is really enough, I'm up to 3 / 4 and there is a bit too much, my rick'4001 is alive and fully deployed.

OVERALL OPINION

It's bombings in bars, go for it
