Value For Money : Excellent
Stereo power amp lamps (EL 34 but you can put 6L6)
2x50 watts Class A (cathode bias) and 2x62 watts in Class AB.
Precision of Gillou: "We must put the stand-by when changing class because of the blow is changed cblage lamps and how they work."
Rack 2 unitsdenviron 15 kilos, 33.4 cm deep for the rack in it but there are even two front grips that are less than 3cm and ventillo derrire which is well and add 3 4 millimtres.

Connections:
Mono input jack per channel format. The entrance to the Channel A sends the sound to the two channels. So even with a single prampli like VHT GP3 was the Stereo output of 2502.
Two speaker outputs with jack format slecteur rotary dimpdance (4, 8 or 16 ohms) per channel.

For each channel are made by the rglages,
3 potentiomtres:
Volume: uh jexplique not?
Prensence: boost the treble frquences
Depth: boost the serious frquences
2 switches:
Voicing: Boost the bottom frquences mdiums and acute (excellent for mtal)
Level: 10 dB dabaisser allows the incoming signal: Absolutely gnial, we can push back Lampl (ie lamps) without becoming dull and did not hear the police arrived because of daytime noise / night

Each channel has its stand-by (perfect for playing in mono: no risk of burn out the channel unused), a switch to choose between Class A and Class AB and its fuse.
Note also a fuse in the power cord gnral prs larrire that unlike the Mesa 20/20 dtach is therefore no problem with power gnrale Furman type.
Recess and the power button lights up in green gnral that when the VHT works.

The brand is very well ventilated thanks dune by a small fan larrire type PC and many arati (everywhere except in the rack and larrire o there is the fan) on chssis!

What honestly blame him? Not to be MIDI or Randall RT250 (https://fr.audiofanzine.com/produits/index% 2Cidproduit 2C35988.html%)? That would push the gourgandise its peak right?
Oh yes: you have to change lamps louvre unlike the Mesa, but because the lamps are being protected more stable and better!

So 10/10!


UTILIZATION

Yes trs OF USE simple because there are only good sounds
You just have to be careful when you plug limpdance his cabinet as always!

Only BMOL: the switch to select Class A / AB is just the cot Stand By (plus they are the same) as the so be careful not to plant switches!
- 1 for that!

The manual is clear and sufficient?
Aahhhh manual VHT
It is sublime: two A4 photocopies superbly clips top left! And attention, THE FIRST sil copy is in color you like, yes there is a little green logo on the VHT and also web links
Page 1 Retailer short the front page and the two rear faade: in fact there is no need for more (a short course on impdances may be)

Ps: there is a sticker with the VHT offered fabulous operating manual

So 9 / 10

SOUNDS

I think the power amp should all styles of music and all situations!
Indeed what japprcie cest quil can be forgotten or color the sound.
Also the Level function is REALLY good for, once the level in action we can push back the volume, the equivalent to push Mesa 1 / 4 or so. This gives a power amp is all exploitable low volume (record, play house etc.).

In fact jai had the VHT and Mesa set a few hours and then jai have made a comparison with my small cabinet Tweed VHT VHT GP3 and prampli.
The Mesa has a single sound with a fairly tempered characters (sound Mesa, quite dark) and lon can only vaguely with the presence modulate that parat less effective than the VHT.
The VHT it seems to me more neutral 0 Depth with and without the voicing (the Mesa did not so such functions compare like with like).
With the depth and voicing cest War: Welcome to the realm of mtal with big bass and superb precision.
Jai also feel that the VHT is more dynamic and harmonics out can be better also! The sound is much sharper, more prcis less runny and less dark than the Mesa!
The VHT has more control that can change the sound and power far more progressive: the Mesa you push a little scream ca! With the VHT, especially thanks the function level, it&#39;s true progressive and exploitable low volume.

Also I am less afraid to run in mono, which is much simpler and more explicit: they tell you that this volume cest Channel A or B and so it matches the rear from HP re: no on the Mesa indicationpour the nickel cramer EST

In short, the VHT is better if the conumme Mesa sounds good even when (especially not all that big nest mtal distortion).

OVERALL OPINION

I am the User since mid September, as the jai wait five months as the GP3 2/50/2 me ft delivered in 24 hours

I prfre:
The precision and transparency (or not) and versatility (Class A / AB) it is capable
Sounds mtal o it is widely suprieur the Mesa 20/20.
The Stand By per channel.
Level switch that allows the full performance of the lamps down the volume.
The dune&#39;s Manir gnral even if I dont that the Mesa Boogie 20/20 with only real point of comparison with my current config (guitars, baffle, prampli)

The only default: the proximity between Stand By and slecteur Class A / AB

Obviously this choice I would do!

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Note:</span> javoue not be so used Lampl in Class A! So I NEER not davis on pointLa only thing I can say cest quil are out of breath in this mode than in lautre!
I do not mean the fan blows Obviously <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="" />

To conclude the opinion of those who test Lont:
Batgrat that the test the GP3 & Mesa Boogie 20/20 TriAxis in Mesa, then returned for testing in the GP3 2/50/2:
So looking back, I found the GP3 really made better with 2/50/2 with the 20/20.
I think there is much more dynamic with the 2/50/2! SETTING THE The presence and depth have a rel impact and therefore can still be awesome sound thanks the power amp and it plutt cool, you can really refine your rglages as ca. The level is the magic button to get the big potato lamps at low volume is simply gnial! I, who wanted to play a config in my home studio and on without doing shit all and to send the sauce when I would do concerts I found my happiness!
In short, this is a killer rack!
When I hear the config GP3, 2/50/2 config and T / A, 20/20 is really the day and night! Cest crazy! Good at ca grain is normal, but in the dynamics is awesome!
I find the config T / A, 20/20 sounded small, hollow, without scale, then perhaps be that as the 2 / 90 had t tudi for the T / A&#39;s with this amp T / A is, but the full extent of what I heard, I am limited by the Mesa.

Myrddhin: That&#39;s it, I rcupr my VHT 2:50:2 and I made with RPET Premire yesterday. Well, it&#39;s a big killing this thing! Indeed, I have plenty to do with 50 watts!
Otherwise, compare my PV is the day and night. PV is more transparent with much less dynamic, while the fade is patator VHT. I leave the best mix is ​​more prcis and suddenly I think I even need to use my eq.
So it&#39;s a great investment and price cards (twice for me) from the PV is completely justified.
The PV is an excellent qualitprix in fact the EL84 is not for mtal sizes, but more adapted a record blues / rock is going to say.

I leave the last word Nebuleyes my friend (who has since bought one):
You put crappy Dimebag Darrel, you fool, you electrified the virgin
