5w tube, HP 10 inch, no effects, 3-band EQ, 1 position attenuation.

UTILIZATION

Using extremely simple ...

SOUNDS

Very nice clear sound that tends to cruncher with good sharp attack.
Push the volume above 3 or 4 is not feasible in an apartment, even with the Low Power mode engaged.
To ring the TDCA and company must go through an attenuator (I model here is a P & P 22w), or play again in a small room, or outdoors.
The attenuator plugged into the "external HP 16ohms" output sounds too loud even 21dB (but it still sounds as strong as without attenuator position Low power mode).
At that moment I was very disappointed with the attenuator.
The trick to decrease the volume still is plug in the output "low power mode", but do not go to the bottom jack or the sound does not come out.
So you can really play chamber volume of apartment without piss person here really sounds! Between -15 and -18 db is the top. For the evening the -21 db position is the ultimate weapon.

OVERALL OPINION

This amplifier coupled to an attenuator is really great.

Me looking sounds of the 70s I'm thrilled.

Too bad it does not have there a 2nd slightly more effective position "Low Power Mode 2" because adding an attenuator quickly becomes necessary to take advantage of volume beyond 4 or 5 ...
