100w amp head lamps:
-4xECC83
-4xEL34
I had the opportunity to try this amp head in the store on a baffle 1960A

UTILIZATION

The head has a lot of buttons, it's a little mess. But with practice, it must not be a problem. on the other hand, in addition there are buttons to switch names not very ambiguous and completely change the sound when activated or not. I would summarize that for the adjustment of the beast is not at all intuitive.

SOUNDS

I have no particular style of music, but what I expect from an amp head, c is that it is not a clear degeu, distortion and clean. I play an ibanez JPM100 climbs DiMarzio (Air Norton & Steve Special).
in terms of sound obtained on this head:
Light: I find it rather well. not transcendent, but so far I expected much worse from the different points after I had read about the clean sound "made in marshall"
-Crunch: the same, it was pretty good without being amazing
-Lead: I'm not against it by AIM at all: the grain is too dense and rather ugly. Basically I felt like I hear the electric barber's clippers ...

OVERALL OPINION

Well, I tried it at the very least one hour so the level of adjustment, can not say that I master. but I longtmp Attard in the lead by trying a multitude of settings. I could only move from its lousy sound very ugly ...
This was the first time I tried this head, but it was also the second time I asked the test being given the first time at the turn, the seller has the grill head ... I heard about the problems of reliability of this amp is what I got proof??
to conclude I will say that I will never buy this amp head. Mainly parsqu'elle is expensive for a not her top.
