Avalanches « Dynamic and aggressive »
Published on 07/07/14 at 01:44Amp head lamps 60 W
- 2 EL34 power
- 4 ECC83 preamp
- (Almost) 2 channels
- Channel 1: 1 win, 1 volume, 1 presence Bright 1 switch, 1 switch Rhythm Boost, Boost 1 switch Depth
- Channel 2: 1 win, 1 volume, 1 presence, Lead Boost 1 switch, 1 switch Depth Boost
- Common: bass, middle, treble, Hi Range Suppressor, 1 master volume
Simple effective connectivity ET:
- Footswitch (stereo channel change and activation volume solo)
- Parallel loop becomes FX series with the balance to 100%
- XLR output with level control and cab emulated output
- 1 8 ohm speaker output, 1 output speaker, 16 ohm
UTILIZATION
It is a quasi mono channel amplifier, the gain of channel 1 controls the gain level of channel 2 (the two are added in channel 2). The EQ setting is common.
The sound is a compromise of the two.
The solo is actually a volume attenuator switched on (default) is the normal volume, disengaged the volume is turned down by a few dB.
The loop actually works as a series loop when it is 100% perfect for the recent multi. And parallel to the refractory.
SOUNDS
Much to say right now, the sound is EXTREMELY typed. It is dry, very clear, incisive, dynamic.
The clean sound is nice but without much relief, the gain can give a nice color.
The crunch is good, it can saturate the extreme frequencies of the attack and remain relatively light and very dynamic.
Despite this, my fire-Triamp was significantly higher in the first two sounds.
Channel 2 can be rock (deep purple) and go to the metal with the boost engaged.
The sound is really focused on the midrange, even they remain before removing with a lot of attack, the palms-mutes resemble upercut on that front, a slap to my Triamp.
That said I'm missing a little something, a little body, the sound may not be enough 'imposing' frequency, but adding him a factor in Tube boost I get what I was missing.
I connect over a PRS Custom 22 (mahogany / maple) and a Burny Les Paul Custom.
My guitars are loaded with bass, and it sounds good with the amp is because just a little low, and I play Do.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a little less than a year. I love its simplicity, this signature sound. I have the version without standby, a real problem since the power tubes are expensive, I think he have one installed.
The amp is rare and not given OCCAZ, but this is the price for an amp that has a signature sound. I love this amp and compromise on the fact that the gain is shared, I even bought it!
I find it unfortunate that there is no relay to activate the boost channel 1, because you suddenly choose between light and crunch.
