All user reviews of 5/5 for the Hughes & Kettner Matrix 100 Combo

As discussed below, nothing to add

UTILIZATION

The manual, I did not.
The config is super simple, rotating knobs, there is a sound, pressing the blue LED lights to save the settings.
super simple.

SOUNDS

So what say the clean, monstrous, perfect, and everything. As in all H & K I tried /
The Crunch: good until mid-gain and post crap
the lead: not really bad, but after ringing half the gain
The warp: as the lead, but metalheads and the problem of ringing is deaf.
Reverb and Delay are very good for my taste.
But the effects, I do not use them, except a minimum of chorus, not tested.
The pedal is solid and comes with practice.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 month and I remake this choice if the idea of ​​buying an amp transistor vennait me the idea

Combo guitar amp 100 W - 2 inputs (active / passive) - 4 channels: clean, crunch, lead and Warp - 1 HP 12 "Celestion Rockdriver Ultra 100 - 4-band EQ - SETTING THE gain and compression - Multi-purpose numrique Intgr - Switch on / off: Turbo (cut mdium 400Hz) - Outputs: tuner, footswitch, effects loop, line (CONTRL Pre Master), DI sym stick, 2 HP out (SERIES parallle and which cut the internal HP)

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple each channel has its own settings gives very easely a good sound and very clear manual.

SOUNDS

I play metal it suits my style of music, I play with an ibanez.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since yesterday, I also sit on the line 6 spider and I find the most interresting ketnner huges and value for money and is nickel I had for 400 euros one negotiate the price.
I do it again this election if I had the chance.

A good transistor vieu
100w
4 selector switch a football
flanger chorus delay effect and tremolo

UTILIZATION

Very simple configuration
great sound in a button Tuor

SOUNDS

Its sounds good for more than one transistor
in addition a great thing a sytem c retenan lesparamétre présédemen used made it clear his rule we go by the rule is saturated lead sound is regulated and adjusted his warp i compressed with eefet and presents the clear when the next setting retained its c its pretty terrible trip I good versatility with a clear chorus and a small delay and c lea terrible dub but are horses under the Capeau when moving in the saturated ring

OVERALL OPINION

Easy setting a low price and great opportunity to say anything a small ball a possibility of its different extraordinnaire and tt's for less than 400 euros we'll have to tor s' in private
Just one thing is kind of a 2x60W amplifier shall have the right was not bad but it will only 1x100W

- A transistor, 100 W (1 ultra speaker baffle celestion rockdriver 12 "), effect flanger, tremolo, good reverb, delay. 4 channel-clean
-Crunch
Disto-lead
Disto-warp

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, the footswitch is very convenient with a long cable. a second possibility davoir pr footswitch activate or not the effect or reverbe.le Autostore system that saves the desire on the effects that cannal lon chose and EXCELLENT! and very practical.

SOUNDS

I play majority of metal and it suits me really! quia and contrary to what have been said I think the sound can be used to warp autrechose as neo metal ...
- The clean sound is beautiful, and the advantage of the chorus ignites terribly. The effects are of good quality ... good must admit I did not test tons of pedals and other flanger chorus and tremolo but I find them much
It's crunch is very varied from a virtually distortion almost clean (well I stress almost)
It's lead is very good and the warp is very welcome ... very good very good when we go to the rithmique!

OVERALL OPINION

Since even an inch a week and I am more than satisfied, before I played on the H & K tour reverb and I do not regret at all davoir chang (and yeah I like the h & k), if you hesitate ... and b do not hesitate. I had the opportunity to play on Peavy, Marchall and fender of the same class. With the experience ... what about ... ba I jeterai in the trash for the pleasure to reopen a new board, to the famous cartoon show and the retest again for hours

Transistor amplifier, 100 watts. For the rest look at other opinions or manufacturer ite ^ ^

UTILIZATION

The manual is useless I want to say both rgalges are simple, we obtain for the sound DSIR in seconds, the memory effects of Systm is a REALLY + trs practice. Only default, a common pr pota gain the lead and warp but it can survive ca lol

SOUNDS

I play with an Ibanez GIO, I play metal, mainly Metallica ^ ^
In other words, it fits perfectly and the only default sound Submitted come from my guitar lol

Before I used a Boss MT-2 pedals, metalzone, warp with the channel I no longer needed, it fits in the closet, as saying that the sound is good ^ ^

The warp for heavy rhythmic James, Kirk and it lead to happiness lol.

Only m'horripile crunch or distortion or clean, clutter c (but c wanted lol) c that kind of sounds gnral I do not like ^ ^

OVERALL OPINION

I use it a week and dpeuis j'apprcie phnomnale power, I tried other models before, note 7 Marschall and warp, in other words they are beaten platte couture.
The ratio quality price is excellent, it's cheap and it's better lol

I remake the choice 20 000 times if necessary ^ ^

There's everything you need connectivity level! pdalier the book is well made trs.

UTILIZATION

Simple, effective
Ms. low volume home studio or a room there is intrassant trs.

SOUNDS

Clean Start sounds great with or jazz.
trs lgant crunch channel sounds with telecaster type (other less convincing)
and lead distortion: I did not comment because I use a Digitech RP2000 to a beautifully sounding on this amp ... It's a rgal, the sound is not aggressive at all, but rich and full.
Added: clean channel tends to saturate with lgrement qd um volume of the said canal Exceeds 13h .. and that the master sends a bit. it does me absolutely no ESG, I am a color supplmentaire but some can interfere!
The crunch channel is known to be trs "living" with the right rglages, good guitars and the game that follows!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 month, I redcouvre my jazz guitar on the clean and crunch channels.
The association Ibanez, Digitech, Hughes and Kettner provides distos that will make jealous! loll

Transistor amplifier 100w, 4 channels (Clean, Crunch, Lead, Warp)
Adjustment (treble, mid, bass and volume) for clean (gain, volume) for crunch, (lead / warp gain, lead flight warp flight) for the lead and warp and (treble, mid, bass) for these last 3, that is, this setting will be the same for all three 'distortion'.
The connector is standard, footswitch, Bafle, line out, effects loop.

Small multi effect (chorus / flanger / tremolo) + (delay) + reverb can be set differently for each channel, it remembers your last setting, class!

UTILIZATION

Configuration is one class is not lost.

So for her, I want to say that at first I thought "you did the con to buy this amp" because I am very conservative and I regretted my sound marshall 5010 lead.

Then without looking too long, especially during the first repeat, sound sick! And I really enjoy all the 4 channels!

Only drawback, too bad the adjustable TREB, mid, bass is not independent of the crunch, lead and warp. That said it does not interfere in any way (see below)

In addition we can not return to the effects of independently chasue channels (6 times one reads the manual, which is clear but not really useful as well, before you enjoy this superb luxury). PPET 2nd B flat anyway, it is difficult to assay the chorus / flanger / tremolo, there have been a mix button and more.

SOUNDS

I play pop rock metal, I thought I use two channels at the beginning and then the other two have imposed themselves.

I play with a Epiphone Les Paul Custom. The sound is quite Polivalente.
Despite the non possibility to adjust the EQ on channels independently adjustable between 2.3.4 the three stands and remains consistent which is not to overlook!

Missing can be a bit of potato to note for note when the sound rule of priority for the rhythm.

The mutli effect is not bad, having said that I expect to have a footswitch to enjoy it.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months, I waited to do with first before posting, but it itched to extol its merits.

The top is 4 channels anyway. I tried with some friends a peavey bandit 112 as well but I found the soft distortion (it seems a bit fragile too) and a Marshall AVT 100 which I found much for what he did.

The price / quality ratio is very honorable, as it will save at least initially on the purchase of pedal (even if only for the reverb and delay) We add a wah and a tuner at all here and we are ready for the tour of his interplanetary group!

And yes ma'am I would do the same choice, no problem!

HP-12 "with an output of 100W
- 4 channels (Clean, Crunch, Lead, Warp)
Comes with a footswitch-quality
Automatic memory-effects
-Possibility of a 2nd footswitch to bypass the effects and reverb

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple, the footswitch for channel 4 is great, and it's solid, great design, especially with the blue lights! it takes little room for a 100W sound is achieved very easily, and the effects are quickly resolved and practical! the manual is good, and also the small leaf on the receiver indicating a recommended configuration

SOUNDS

I tried a lot of amp for all brands, Marshall, Peavy, an old Hughes and Kettner also, line 6, crate ... I use a distortion pedal Boss MD-2, the old Hughes and Kettner and Peavy was not on the pedal, it sounded any way, but then the matrix combo .... never heard that, it's sublime, I play metalcore bcp (trivium, bullet for my valentine, Atreyu, Heaven Shall Burn), also static-x ac ac mounted on a ibanez jackson humbuckers, and a Jackson JS30 RR, and I play with korn Ibanez RG 7420 (7 strings) ben get exactly the sound I want, I find the palm mute ... I never heard that ac ... some bass, I have shivers down my spine every time, and low volume!! it's beautiful

if not for the sound of the pedal without matrix:
clean: clean the best I've heard, it is both warm and crystalline, it really gives the guitar sound its best, I was impressed with the sustain! a very low volume, I get a very long sustain! love

Crunch: For those who play nirvana or sth in the genre, it's really not bad, it sounds great too

lead: for me the best distortion of the amp, it's okay to play metallica with a good gain, or other metal not in tropical extreme distortion

Warp: ca tro not kick me, I find that the sound is good but other than that we should not tro to gain if the sound is not terrible

if the effects are all very successful and very useful, and quickly set c

In conclusion, without distortion pedal, this amp is not for a big distortion of the metal, it has a very slight metal disto for metallica's it going again but the more it is better to nag a pedal ...

I put 9 for the warp and the fact that I can not play my style of music without pedal

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week, and I am 100% satisfied, in addition to 300 euros ... it's really nothing for an amp like that, I also made direct with the FS-2 footswitch to bypass the effects and reverb, very practical!

what I like most is its sound bin, it has one of its power! especially in low! the palm mute are sublime! I love everything, its superb design, robustness, small size, the footswitch, effects, quality, price of course!

yes I think I would do without hesitation that choice, but I wait to be able to try it first on scene
