All user reviews of 4/5 for the Hughes & Kettner Tube Factor

What are the effects or types of effects available?
Distortion with 2 switches: 1 on / off and adjust the 2nd half or full.

What technology is used? (Analog, digital, tube ...)
analog tube!

Are they edited?
3 knobs: Gain - Volume - Voice
Gain increases distortion.
The volume augment the output level can become impressive.
Voice highlights a hollow in the middle to leave a little more room to voice, supposedly.

What is the connection?
6.35 jack input and output, and there's even an entry for a remote control but I never used it.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is it simple?
Yes, you plug is pressed, it sets the gain and volume, a little edge with the voice ... this is classic and very warm distortion, and the distortion in background, the receiver can larsener if we play with a level of rocker ...

The manual is clear and sufficient?
Bought secondhand without the manual, it would be helpful to have the reference of the lamp inside.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound quality is there. There's the bass and treble, rich and warm sound.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
Since 2010.

What is the particular feature you like best and least?
Pros: sound, metal look with the little blue light robustness.
The less the difference in level between 1/2 and full ... if one chooses a crunch for half the full typed will necessarily metal, and if you chose a classic rock distortion sound full, 1/2 will be a pauv 'clear its weaker than the pedal bypass ... 2 settings 2 channels it would have been top notch.

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
I have 2 Marshall Shred Master sounding a bit like the two shreds, we already reports that according to the series, the components are not calibrated same, we seem to get the same sound but with different settings ... I love this distortion and Tube Factor sounds a little similar but more serious and more heat. The grave is fun when you play bass and warmth is nice when you play rock.

How would you rate the quality / price?
Not bad.

With experience, you do again this choice?
I'm a little disappointed because I only use one setting, but what a sound! I would probably do it again this choice or I will directly see Okko Super Tube Factor whose modification rule the small problem of inequality between the channels.
