2x50W power amp all lamps (3x12AX7 and 4x6L6GC). Volume control and channel presence, switch power on, standby and "high / low" to switch to 2x15W.
To the rear 2 A and B inputs and 6 outputs, 2 in 8ohms and 4 ohms 4.

UTILIZATION

It is a power amp so easy to use, it has a sound right away. Attention just to match the output impedance to that of the baffles.

SOUNDS

I use this in a config Poweramp '100% Mesa Boogie:
- Studio Preamp, fifty / fifty and Thiele 1x12 cabinet 'with Electro Voice.
There is no doubt about it: just like the 2x90 is designed to play with Triax, the fifty / fifty gives its full potential with the studio preamp or the Quad preamp.
The difference with the Dynawatt 2x20 is notable: the most direct and articulate broader, less viscous, with a good dose of aggression and more.
In the clean fifty / fifty DYNAMIC TCP and brings brightness, saturation in the bass is simply incredible, monstrous gain

OVERALL OPINION

I'm very happy. I had the opportunity to test it before with a Rocktron Voodu Valve (not bad) and an ADA MP1 (made good), but there with the first studio, the ideal couple.
