Best value: Excellent
All Tube amp to power 4 el 34 "RUBY"
5 12AX7 "Ruby"
100 w
2 separate channels with independent EQ boost in more saturated channel
loops with adjustable effect "wet dry" in faade (handy)

UTILIZATION

The amp is Designed for simple Manir
2 channels with effective sound equalization is easily faonnable wish without the fuss
there is no need for manual as long as it is known to use an amp ....
Note that the effect loop is very efficaceavec Regleg a balance "weet and dry" handy

SOUNDS

This amp is perfect for those who seek a high gain amp that sounds almost perfect as the clean sounds on the saturated '
Note that unlike other models "and huggues kettner" the sound is warm and not at all synthetic heat it the old marshall plexi and a superb dynamic sound modern "natural" nothing to do with the triamp example I also owned ....
sounds clear s'aparente best fender plus a fairly modern color that goes well with modulation effects such as chorus flanger etc. .... a touch of delay over the beautiful melodies and greetings in arpeggios or the funky riffs slamming good
distos for the distortion is not tasteless trash metal, but the true saturated granular and how much momentum !!!!! this amp is a lot to think about marshall anniversary with a much more advantageous disto more fluid and very powerful is going through a little good old rock 'n' roll's Chuck Berry was furious, beatles, even the "stones" to saturation at the ac / dc aerosmith scorpions zp led to his style metal deftones evanescence sum41 and the whole gang .... on the other hand is a bit short for very sustained distortion (like pantera and consors), however, what is the dynamic dynamite!! short as of happiness ....

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a year or so
+ what I love is the capacity to rep ^ roduire natural sounds like the real Marshall knew the time of making the sound clear and the top Stur superb dynamics and especially I do not say enough
and more beautiful it is when the dish turned a blue light surrounds the logo "hughes" and disperses a Lumire my faith very nice!
I had a lot of hugger or model is superior in my opinion as the "huggues triamp"
all after the marshall plexi except the 6100 anniversary which is on a par with .... However, a sound less "present" much better as the "engl" savage that I find bland in the color of his but who has more to gain distos but not only the quality rivera bonehead "Steve Lukather" is superior but good is not the same price either
The value for money is good but not miraculous, because the beast cost alone of around 2200 euros it is certainly not given but the quality is l. ..
If I had to redo much of Quej remake that choice even though now I turn to a rack concept (VHT Two Ninety Two with CAE + 3SE changes and lexicom 81 cfm)
