All user reviews of 5/5 for the Tech 21 Power Engine 60 1x12

cfr site builder

his previous propio was used with a tube man Hughes and Kettner

UTILIZATION

Lightweight, portable, solid manual unnecessary.

reproduces what he branch source preamplified guitar (or not but it sounds vintage.

Purchased to plug a boss me 33 multi effect at that time the boss of JC120 simulation (the only one I 'group was using) is found in magnified.

then I offered him a ToneLab SE and a vamp arrival

SOUNDS

nickel it sounds, it took me a year to understand the ToneLab but since it seems even more essential because if the source is good it breaks, it is dynamic.
I keep it because it's good stuff even if he does not like aquarium pumps, the transformer Berhinger or computer on the same multi taken ... lol (I did not try the trick explained in the tip section ...)


the equa in the back is very convenient but it is not made to be constantly thrashing, personal she could correct between my headphone and the REPEAT group presets done at home ..... at the end I retouched more than the preset volume.

Sounds good at low volume

OVERALL OPINION

I almost buy a 2 nd

I plugged it in with the ToneLab split in the loop of my Blackstar, it sounds and AC buzz and not with a stereo effect is hot: it's as good as the power stage of which has a HT5 fi-inspired lamp circuit it seems.

I put both a 3/4 of its power well we got on the other side has his guitar and JCM900 .... that was rather my fingers lem .... lol

if I should sell an amp I will sell faster my Blackstar HT5,

This is a guitar amplifier speaker: the power amp (60 W) and HP (12 inches) in a same casing, the size of a combo.

Between Jack or XLR, Output XLR parallle, volume and 3 band legalization.
All looks solid, especially the grip leather carrying.

UTILIZATION

Designed to be used with a prampli modeling (the Sansamp of the same brand), no color is added by the amplifier or the HP (even when it HP a guitar, not a PA or hi-fi). The legalization, trs effective, can adapt the sound to the place of use or its gots. Shame that potentiomtres be facing rear.

SOUNDS

"The ultimate weapon" for those who taient dj happy with the sound of their prampli modeling and / or simulator HP Live sound: the ringing cell even more authentic with real physical sensations, as with a traditional amp. HP, with its large Diameter (30 cm), attnue the cot too bright for some types of modlisations amp, and 60 Watts of power amp are Submitted: a "send" serious!

Test with a Sansamp PSA1 and a Roland VG88 and a bass in a classic Sansamp pedals.

on the other hand, go your way with pedals or distortion of traditional prampli unless you play in the clear, where the clarity and respect for the guitar you will be there.

OVERALL OPINION

It is above all a practical device: two agreements lments well in one box transport. Cel can also not have the power amp in a rack that heats charged dj. We can use one to repeat, and two or more for the concert, ...
In short I do not see the benefits this product, but I prcise again: it's for a prampli modlisation or use a clean sound (funk, country) only, or to low. Config in a traditional power amp part in the sound (especially if it is light), whereas it is completely transparent.

One can expensive (460 euros in 2004), but made in United States and I think that'll buy me a second to stro

Power:

I set the output volume of pramp in the middle of its travel and gualisation the Tech 21 in neutral and gradually I Mount the volume of the amp .... and not as I say, I cover the drummer no problem without exceeding three on the volume

Since then I have also tried the prampli Soldano SP-77 over :-()

Diou good, it's good: The clear sound is a true wonder of this configuration and saturations are creamy, each note is distinctly dtach and attacks of the right hand are totally respected, what class!

UTILIZATION

Configuration:

Connect your device or your prampli modlisation Line output (as a sound system), set the volume output rgler bottom and the volume of the amp to suit your needs

Simple right?

SOUNDS

The sounds:

Transparency and dynamic Vritablement bleuffantes

It's been 17 years since I played guitar and my settings have always taient guitar in a guitar amp (lamp, transistor, rack, I Bouff all racks)

L is bouriffant dynamics, precision and cleanliness and above all transparent ... no diffrence between his studio and live sound ... The prampli is totalemnt respect. If it is a dung, amplification dlivrera a big dung, if one quality prampli of you know the rest
PS: a small ring (At Home) and Volume Fort ...

SP -77 as it gives all its beauty on the Tech 21 branch ... It's just what I want!

What else, for years I was looking for it, years to try to approach me, by chance, finally found the sound clear and saturation I was looking for .... Damn, life is not a ...

Enough said.

OVERALL OPINION

In conclusion:

OHE, OHE, ALL OWNERS OF DEVICE MODELING:

I have the ideal solution for connecting your prampli (Pod, TONELAB, Digitech and others ...) and leave it in the stomach in a quality Studio, without having to change patches rglages , without coloring the sound of your machine, but by making the dynamics of a vritable HP (which were connected to a high-end sound even understand me)

Close your eyes and Listen ... Then open the vintage look and apprciez

It's all good ...

Take you on this amp, go try it, council Schizophonic



If you have any questions, n'hsitez-not

PS: I plan to buy me a second delivery of my APRS XP

60 W transistor amplifier, the sound "neutral," an HP possdant Celestion 12 ".
Between 6.3 mm jack or XLR, Output XLR connectors look for the HP ct (connection from below!)
3 mini Tone knobs for the volume to 1

UTILIZATION

Nothing more simple, plug and play your prampli. If necessary, be corrected by the sound lgrement SETTING THE Tone.
Like all of these combos, the sound is very directional. It should be straight in the face for all acute.

SOUNDS

What must be understood first and foremost is that this amp is for guitarists using a multi-effect-prampli incorporating a simulator HP.
All sounds seem accessible.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two weeks, and I wonder why you waited so long before I DCID (thank you AudioFanzine).
I was using before my GT-6 (multi-effect) on a Fender amp branch 85 and also a Marshall Valvestate (according to locals). But the problem that each amp gave silent sound compltement Different. So I juggled with the simulation of HP multi-effects, sometimes active, sometimes not.
Now it's easy, always ON, and is really your exact gnial. The clean sounds, the crunch and big distos sound of thunder!
Dlivre power is HUGE. I rarely Exceeds 1 / 3 the volume of scne.
Report quality / price excellent condition possder the prampli appropriate.
And I would do if the choice?? Yes, indeed a stro deuxime to play?? It would be INTERESTED, I think!
Oh, one more thing gnial the weight! Not too heavy, not too big and look trs sympa!

+ Power amp combo blaffle format designed to amplify the signals from preamp modeling

UTILIZATION

Nothing more simple, one volume, a 3-band équalisaton, XLR and jack input, XLR outputs to go to a console or to chain multiple Pe 60.

SOUNDS

Perfect for what it is supposed to do, amplify and reproduce sound without the amp, pod, V-amp ToneLab, and others without distorting it.

All I have plugged dedant (POD, Tubeman, Vamp 2) rings

60 watts and watts are not a fruit, it covers a beater 4 / 10 for the volume

Attention speaker simulation on the preamp advised on some preamp.

However, with a 2 Tubeman it sounds great with the release "to power amp" and with the latest update of a pod XT it sounds very, very well using the config "combo amp power" of the pod, especially when you push the beast.
Please note also: This is a combo format. So do not expect to have the proceedings of a 4 * 12. Even with models of 4 * 12, there is a kind of bottleneck. For that, see the PE 300 can be rack with a cabinet dedicated tech 21 4 * 12

OVERALL OPINION

If you do not know what to plug your amp simulator, here is the solution for a very reasonable price.
I do a lot of coffee together and little scenes, I plug my pod right output on the PE and exit left on the sound system and hop rolling!!

There's also the solution to the table out of the mix out via XLR E. P

Believe me, it's been 23 years since I played and I touched at all (lamps, two-body transition combo ....). OK + Power Pod or Tonelab engine is better (Triax, ENGL preamp + power amp .... mesa cabinet) but it will cost you much much more. Do the math !!!!! And with the argnent saved rather invest in a good scratch.

Power amp (neutral) 60W transistor combo format dedicated to the amplification of digital preamp (POD and others) or analog (GT2, etc. ..).

Connectors phone type or XLR

a single 3-band EQ (bass, midrange and treble) and volume.

UTILIZATION

Strong, not too heavy, easy to use.

only discomfort, knobs on the back.

SOUNDS

I use it with a POD2 and I get the most out of this preamp ie without deformation (close headphone) and low volume (apartment) as high-volume (repetition).

I play mostly blues-rock with a strat USD.

I also have a Ibanez RG570, and then I get a more cold metal. Contrary to what I read in some posts, I find that despite the digital sound is much influenced by the guitar.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been over six months that I use and I am very happy to play as well in an apartment in rehearsal.

I recommend it to anyone who wants to profit from their digital preamp (or analog).

I appreciate such a configuration POD2 60 + PE, because I can play both at home in rehearsal with the same presets without touching the settings.

And finally, it's more versatile, economical (400 (nine PE) + 100 (POD time) = 500 €) and robust. We can then afford to buy a good guitar.

Amp transistor, delivers 60Watts (and it is not a fruit of watts, covering a violent drummer 4 / 10, tested and approved again). An input jack and an XLR input, XLR output to a PE60 or other mixer. Three settings bass / medium / high very effective (but I think this is not the purpose of this amp, so everything at 12 o'clock).

UTILIZATION

Super easy to use, connect the output of your module L + preamp effects (or preamp by itself, but since the preamp mandatory PE is only 60 amp). Power on, volume to one quarter and it works!

SOUNDS

I use a Les Paul Custom Ebony home with a Pod XT Live Pedal Line 6.

I did some tests with the headset as the output of the Pod I turn then to compare the sounds.

Well this is bluffing, subject however to use the output mode "combo Poweramp" on the Pod XT Live, a "LINE" changes the sound too (more fat, more bass, but the sound that it was the headphone). In "Combo Amp Power" was the same sounds that headphone, almost. There's just a little more grain, which is the goal I was looking for from the direct connection to the sound, which I found too cold.

Tested again this is the pure joy, and it has helped to separate the two guitars, one plays guitar on both same Pod XT live, one is plugged into the sound, the other on the EP 60: mean mmieux much the two guitars.

He has a hell of potatoes for a transistor in 4 / 10 you cover the drummer, which however is not a fun. Not tried beyond: it's already hard enough ...

At home with the knob to 1 or 2 / 10 we get to play with a very small volume that does not bother anyone.

This is where he finally buries the other amps I've tried (including the combination Pod XT Live Peavey Classic 30 + tube, already greatly changed this sound, but completely impossible to play at low volume at home ...).

OVERALL OPINION

This is fresh, I've had two weeks (thank you to the vendor who sold me a used price quite fair to € 235 in postage).

I love it because it meets the sound of the Pod XT Live working on PC and PA / headphone, while adding a HP potatoes guitar.

I plan to buy a second for stereo if needed ...

Transistor amplifier 60 watts.
Connectivity trs simple input and output XLR and Jack inputs, one volume knob and 3 for the legalization.

UTILIZATION

Trs simple to use, plug the amp simulator in and immediately sends the bulk provided they have good patches on his amp simulator.
In addition it is lightweight (just 15kg), looks solid and frankly of the mouth, you think? Good as or small (tiny?) BMOL: The pots derrire place, it gives priori estthisme plutt that practice. But a good rest easy all of the same to be ACCS! Moi perso j'adore! : P

SOUNDS

given that it is neutral as it spits out all that feeds him with the most Fidler possible, so it is ultra versatile. I play it with a ToneLab SE and really gives her a PCHE monstrous! 60 Watts? I swear at least 100! It's immense power is obtained with this amp! I dare not push has half ..... Fear for walls and upholstery! ^ ^

edit: Ouch! I pushed the amp to play with a battery (not Exceeds 4 / 10 on the EP with my ToneLab 4 / 10 also: D And bin l. ....!!! !!!!! Ouch! The dynamics of the amp is modlises We really feel like playing on an amp lamp! (at least I have the same feelings with my valbee!) This Exceeds my expectancy at amp, I bought it to make out the sound of my ToneLab SE but it also adds a little more ... It's huge! The sound is better that the headphone! stunning!
I put good TDI 10 ... not really it can not put 11 .. I leave good bin 10, a maximum score Fully MRIT ^ ^

OVERALL OPINION

I've had today and I looked for a while! With my ToneLab SE is finally an amplification means terrible! I may be still in shock or too happy with my new purchase so my opinion might seem subjective, but trs well I'll keep you posted when I noticed a weakness in this amp you can count on me! In any case advise all owners of amp simulators (ToneLab, pod, etc ...) You will not regret.

60w-transistor amplifier, and has more than enough when you're home or repeating.
-Between a jack, XLR input and output
Finally rglages-level, it's not complicated trs There's four knobs, one volume and three of legalization, not need more for the usefulness of this amp.

UTILIZATION

The setup is ultra-basic, if you not want to take the head by plugging a pdalier on your amp, choose this amp, you basically just the volume and possibly the rgler Tone if you prfrez less to stay in neutral.
BMOL one: the knobs in front rear, it's not very practical to drive a, especially since they are very small, but hey it's nitpicking, there's almost no need 'to touch the knobs if pdalier is in rgl nvieau sounds.

-The sound of this amp is neutral trs is the goal. still a 12-hp celestion CISS believe, even when sending a potato, and thus an excellent sound quality while remaining neutral to rev the sound of your prserver pdalier. APRS well sr, while the dpendra pdalier you. For my part, I use a Vox ToneLab is home, well it's flawless, nothing wrong, I'm happy with the trs association, works great. and besides, I'll rpter, but there's nothing wrong power level, a spit well, rpt not need Exceeds level 3-4 on the volume to drummer, so really impeccable.

-The manual is useless!

SOUNDS

This amp should mons-tyle of music in the sense that I needed for versatility and power of 15watts Exceeds my vox. rsultat: power impeccable battery you need, and versatility, while the dpend pdalier, but because of the neutrality of the amp, it retains Fidler ToneLab sounds that are quite large aggregate.

-As you understand, so I use the Vox ToneLab be with, and it's great fun. and all that coupled with a telecaster american deluxe hotrail, the my versatility and my sound, I have!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 8 months.
I like its simplicity and its power efficiency ... its ultra vintage look! admit that even when the class! more as a brand is not known trs in France, was still feeling to come up with an amp tech 21!
I have not really tried other models, I heard about this one, and as I sought an amp to boost my ToneLab, opinions and the feedback I got from tech 21 m ' largely sufficient. I have more t trs well advised by my dealer, which helps a lot too.
price level relative quality is impeccable. I pay the 380th, and I do not regret it at all, as coupled to ToneLab has made me an equivalent of 800th overall, and with the range of sound and the power that gives me a I invest heavily prfre the inside, of Manir progressive and more than a marshall plutt intermdiaire to another that will return more for me than his in the end.
sr good remake I did! I plan to buy one even deuxime later to the couple on scne (they can be connected in SERIES thanks to xlr connectors, super nice !)... it has or I will invest in other tech baffles 21 baffles the trademark as 300 for example.

Trs simple

a manual for what?

OVERALL OPINION

Premire RPET Friday night Premire scne June 22, I will modify this post if other lments me tiltent
Excellent quality price (thomann, and my supplier does okay on line effect in terms of price)
Choosing not hesitate again

Complment of 27/08/07:
Pod xt live with and the same shovels, the rendering is always good, even when not to use too low volume.

60 watt power amp.
Jack and XLR connectors in and out is to connect to other amplifiers or for a table mix.
There is a 3 band equalizer Bass, Midle, treeble, but personally I do not let on neutral. This is the pre-amp that does everything.

UTILIZATION

With a good pre-amp, there is no simpler. I use a POD XT Live and the sound is really terrible. There are grain and warmth of the amp modliss Pod.
not need manual.

SOUNDS

As I have a multi-effects amp simulator, just as I choose the amp and effects I need. The sound is really high.
I play with a Les Paul Studio Gold and Cort G SERIES with Lace Sensor pickups. With this stuff, I run my perfect instruments.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about 10 months and I chose this type of power amp for complter Pod. I needed a neutral amp. It's perfect.
In addition it is lightweight (16 kg). Before I had a Marshall JCM 600 all-tube. The transportation is convenient with the PE 60, it goes without saying.
I bought it online without trying it. I use the Pod for 1 year and 1 / 2, and I needed a power amp. APRS several research and opinion on the internet, my choice is port 60 on the PE
The report qualitprix is ​​excellent. 451 For what more?
I would do without this choice hsitation.

So this is a power amplifier of 60 watts (on paper anyway. In reality it is enough to repeat / concert .. it is really powerful).

4 knobs including: an equalizer level and 3 (medium, low, high). Buttons and connectors are well hidden behind the amp. There are people that I ca discomfort but a little after 2 years quibble at all and likes to push the pencil in the entries of my instrument, I'm glad it is there or they are these settings .. in addition, I can put my pod xt on the amp like this ...

The weight is great, only 16 kg ... it's really nice for transport,
very nice .. especially when we know that such a power lugs around.

UTILIZATION

Very simple setup ... is the preamp that does everything ...
I play all styles, that's why I took a pod XT, for its versatility.
order to have correct sounds and do not double the preamp and thus change dramatically starting my sounds, I started looking for a neutral amp.
I thought the cube 60 but to no avail, still ca changed my sound.

Then I looked for a power amp and speakers .. ca me quickly cooled amplifiers (most are in rack version) is quite expensive (except for the Rocktron Velocity 100 maybe ...) and enciente is not bad either .. not to mention the emconbrement and weight of all this ..
I finally read the reviews on Audiofanzine and I thought that was the solution for me meuilleure

SOUNDS

The Tech 21 does its job, namely the sound, the preamp ... Voullez you know if it rings? Instead, ask yourself if your preamp sounds by what it is that neutral .. the sound of the preamp is very respected!

Well, I say this but it's not necessarily true in the sense that the Hp come into account, ect ... I can just tell you that I'm really satsisfait, he even adds a warmth to my sound .. a certain "size" ...

One can easily play it low-level or high level to repeat, this poses no problem. which is great also is that the background noise is absent at high volume (I never had that! Well, it also depends on your settings). nothing to do with an amp (preamp / Poweramp) at equal volume.

OVERALL OPINION

Basically:

-Look great
Connectors are behind them (for me, it suits me better since my pod xt is above ..)
"It is of high quality (tech21.. Sondieré is as high-end .. or at least upper-middle range)
- It is overkill, so I can go together without repeated and prob ...
- A nickel!
- Weight and dimensions
The price is really fair to compare the quality of the amp (I've had nine to 429 €)
This choice I would do without hesitation.

Transistor power amp 60w combo that should be in the 16kg and mine is mounted with a celestion hp. 1 eq 3bandes volume, output jack, xlr there is a ground lift button which I have no idea what it is ... That's it.

10: tough, not heavy, original look, hp celestion

UTILIZATION

There is no simpler. One branch is turned the knob and it plays 4

10

SOUNDS

Ben is the sound of the preamp and all you can add the effect.
Better dynamic than most transistor I test lamp while a lower but at least it does not color the sound. The eq is effective and trs the volume can go far in the trs Dcibel and preserve the quality of the sound was low and high volume.

10

OVERALL OPINION

Pay secondhand 250 and 400 if that makes a nine excellent qualitprix.

Frankly there is no better in this price range for amp simulation because the pe is neutral and not suitable for every situation: in his room, rept, a small concert.

10

All the above is said, nothing to add ... IDAL is perfect.

UTILIZATION

Pffffffffff carrment too easy! Just know its rgler prampli ... well, ok, it really has not the easiest ... but the amp, it, doing nothing, while 12-H, pramp the RULES and then we see if need to adjust the amp APRS ...

SOUNDS

I play all styles, blues, rock, mtal, funky, with the POD XT Live and Variax is FEARSOME versatility, forcment!

a must for me with this amp: the modlisation of Vox AC 30 on the pod ... close your eyes and true, you believe, you feel the heat of the vox ... it's amazing! That said, for all modlisations is perfect, but I did not like me the vox modlisations front (headset or PA system) and it's really something else, we FINALLY get it the feel of an amp!

OVERALL OPINION

Ok, I use it for 2 days. We get the same kind of sound in headphones, frica least because we have not as the ears, but much more alive, in short, a real guitar sound with a real amp.
Excellent price quality ratio, I got it secondhand, but even nine 300 Do not hesitate.
I would definitely do it again the same choice because I wanted least of all type of lamp Atomic Reactor amp. too fragile, switching costs etc. lamp. I sold my marshall lamp (JTM 30: great for the blues) to offer me that the NO REGRET !!!!!
power is ample, and if not, I will be included in the sound for concerts so no worries.

Oh, I forgot, do not use the XLR DI output, it is clean but really too bad. It is better to put a SM57 in front of the dish to really enjoy this amp.

Everything has been said!

UTILIZATION

Everything has been said!

OVERALL OPINION

Purchased destocking PlayBack Guitar for 283 euros, delivered in 24 hours ... it helped me to hear for the first time my preamps (POD XT, V-Amp 2, Sansamp GT2 and company ...) format combo. As mentioned in previous post, it means that the preamp is in the belly ... So what is made is the quality of the preamp ...

I do not know if it's technically possible but I would have appreciated a story ... hp output to paste a 4X12.'' I made comparisons between my qques POD xt (simulation of the JCM 800 and 900) and my JCM900 2X12 combo''and it's pretty much knowing that hp are not the same.

This combo (Tech 21) is really convenient because it allows you to play any preamp and as a result can be a lot more sounds available in a traditional combo 1,2,3 or 4 channels ... It is for this reason that I bought. My JCM900 is great but limited in the range of sounds ... I will use in the studio and the combination preamp + Tech21 in chat group.

As long as you have good preamps, you're playing in chat group and you need more than 2 sounds the Power Engine is for you ... especially since prices on the net are extremely attractive.
