It is a Poweramp any lamp, the same as the 820/20 (configuration, height, weight), except that it is 2 x 35 watt lamps and has 8 (not 4) EL84 power and 3 12AX7 in pramp.
The connection is ultra complte (mono output, Stereo outputs 8 or 16 ohms).
Above all, the big advantage of Poweramp engl reasonable power over their competitors is that there are 2 stand by, 2 volumes and 2 prsence (per channel).
The technician who opened this morning to change the lamps and the bias has rgler t quite impressed with the look gnral of the product, its design and sturdiness.
I put a 10/10 on this issue, both for the connections for ultra complte design (ah Teutonic rigor, it is not a legends).
No, actually, I only takes 9 (must Chipotte a little, for 8 power tubes, it's expensive at the time of retubing. I will return below).
UTILIZATION
Operation is ultra-simple, provided you let heat loupiotte.
I have no manual, but it is frankly useless. All rglages trs are intuitive and progressive.
SOUNDS
Poweramp Obviously this is a typical big, but it dbrouille trs well as plain and crunch. It is here that the choice of lamps plays an essential role. I bought OCCAZ 3 weeks ago. Lamps as the originals, I've actually changed this morning at sound lab (in 63) by testing directly with my pramp (toner tube) and one of my guitars (ltd). Well quip with Sovtek power on one channel and EH on the other, the silent diffrence really notable (and yet I'm not a pro sound).
With the Sovtek, it sounded trs dry limit aggressive. With EH, it sounds much warmer, rounder (which magnifies the light and crunch) while keeping the right amount of agressivit saturated. For example, palm mute sound really more with EH with the Sovtek.
My 820/35 is now Mount with 8 EH Sovtek power and 3 (2 and 1 wb lps) in pramp: it is the sound I chose
I, for now, only tried with my ltd (in emg81) and my Gibson Les Paul SmartWood (in 496 and 498). My Start is in a mag to get a simple tone zone bridge. I long to see, or hear plutt, will this give.
I can only put 10 since it was I who chose his sound !!!!!
OVERALL OPINION
This is my 2nd engl Systm lamps (APRS a head ashdown fallen angel that I have good memories). I was looking for a reasonable Poweramp power to connect my engl tube toner.Le choice as trs limit and as rare in engl OCCAZ (820/35 to 820/20 and no longer exist in nine), j ' have failed to turn to a mesa fifty / fifty. And then I came across this OCCAZ 820/35 of a reasonable price (400 euros). Have not tried the mesa, I can not say if it would have even more rain (but it is true that not a good reputable trs a reliability point of view .
But anyway, this Poweramp droge do not rev the engl good reputable in the field of amplification.
I do not regret my choice, nor his retubing (it's expensive, yes, but worth it)
