MetalUp « A pleasant surprise! »
Published on 02/02/11 at 00:12Small single-channel amplifier 6W. One volume knob, a "tone" Push-Pull to activate the gain stage and two input jacks.
Specifications are quoted in the previous opinion, so I will not go on, and above.
We do aa very good construction bill. Electronics is minimalist but effective. The gear is pretty well aesthetically speaking, and he exudes a certain confidence, a quality production that can be found in more expensive combos.
Comes with Chinese lamps (to be changed as soon as possible)
UTILIZATION
- Setup could not be more simple: you plug and turning the tone knob. His plays almost alone!
- Manuel succinct. Not need more. The only thing to understand about this amp is the difference between the entries "Hi" and "Lo".
- The substantial advantage of this amp is its switch "Low Power" (2w) and "Hi Power (6w). The Low Power can really play in an apartment (in his clear, cest to say without activating the boost ) without killing its neighbors.
SOUNDS
- I intended use him a little special. In fact, I play metal band with a drummer that beats hard enough. My goal was to find a low-power amplifier in order to push hard.
- Of course, I use a distortion pedal (Engl Tube Toner, which is more than a preamp pedal distortion). I connected a Schecter C1 Hellraiser EMG rise. I also have a 2x12 cab mounted V30 and Greenback, but I could not try the couple VHT/2x12.
- Well, in this configuration, I have an excellent sound. I use the clear sound of the amp when I want to play in the clear, and distortion of my pedals to send ENGL puree. The amp in 10/10, the sound is very defined and used to play with a drummer who types. The only limit is on the HP 10 "that's hard to follow at this power level. Hence my idea of adding a 2x12 cab in ...
OVERALL OPINION
Used for 2 weeks. A test rehearsal. For the price is more than convincing. Amp works very well in "bedroom" and know this powerful show when to send.
I will update this review once I tried plugging in a cab. But it can only be better!
Price: 138 € for our friends across the Rhine, delivery by UPS. What happiness for that price. At worst, it may take a little amp tweaking!
