This amp 60 watt transistors is intended to amp modliseurs and saw that there adj HP SEVENTY 80 CELESTION of very good quality so try your modliss amps without HP simulator function, you will understand what I mean ... all amp + HP as perfectly neutral (I compar home with studio MSP5 Yamaha studio monitors) except for the extreme treble what is normal is seen that the HP is 12 inches (Celestion is a reference number in the HP universe's) what I mean is that a speaker simulator automatically eats treble ( its goal is to get your live sound by the sound of your speaker or listening), performing this operation or pramplificateur your amp will ressuscits, the grain is so sought-apparatre, it will then you dose the harmonics for a simulation worthy of the name.

USE

This one is comfortable 60 watts, it must be the rgler your prampli output levels for best performance, enough power to concerts in clubs and rehearsals with drummer nerv.

rglages the cursors are: Volume, Bass, mdium, Treble, back combo XLR and Jack made or are under the amplification module, all these people is hidden behind the beautiful fa ade vintage of the machine, it is not practical but aesthetic, that said the rglages should do the upstream, it's better ...

SONORITS

First of all it must be said that even low level means a lightweight hum which is same as gnante with transistors and I'm not the only one to complain (c is really not good for my ears), I also find that the stroke of potentiomtre volume is too progressive (that is gnralement a default statement on lamps amps). .. In terms of sonority all depends prampli the example I tried a Line 6 pocket pod entering a lamp prampli 100 Tube Mic Ultragain the whole branch on the between IN Power Engine 60 and the result is interesting, the lightweight heat lamps of this low pramplificateur range has transformed the Pocket Pod, the sound became more transparent and full of the harmonics of an amp lamps like okay (because it is not always the case).

NOTICE GLOBAL

In conclusion the highlight of the Tech 21 PE 60 is its neutrality and its dynamics for all transistor, the comparison between tube amp and transistor amp seems to me as barren-controlling harmonics is central for sound good in general and the Power Engine can not do miracles this is to not also what is asked, it restores the honest fawn sound is d j not so bad.

For the report QualitPerformances / price I would put 10 to use 8 because of rglages the rear (not practical) for the aesthetic I put him on his 10 and 8 because of the hum. Personally I find that the amp simulators lacking in dynamics of general, but with a prampli Soldano or pedal V Twin Mesa comparison is not possible because it is more in the same GRADE.

PS: I think the comparison between transistors (Listen to a Roland JC 120) and lamps is deprecated nowadays and it must stop be a consumer of rumors, you mfiez the Net, the best is to try and listen to you even, it all depends on your tastes and especially your needs, the rest is pure mercantile illusion.
