Best value:
Excellent
Amplifiers Class A 30 watt lamps. Level connection is nothing more basic "Input", "Foot Switch", and two outputs 8ohms and 16ohms
Effects?, What effects?
UTILIZATION
Can no longer simple: Gain / Tone / Volume and two different switches to switch to 30/15/7 watts
It is in the range of Plug & Play "no need to touch a 35 buttons to get a good sound, you can go from a clean sound has a more than correct his wish was crunchy.
The manual? Not even need my 4 year nephew arrives at settlement.
SOUNDS
So I play a pumped on grunge bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Pixies, Sonic Youth etc. ...
I play on a Squier Telecaster custom fitted with two seymour duncan (Phat Cat and SH5) and I must admit that the sound suits me perfectly, despite a perfect time distortion. I also play on Ibanez JTK and there I was totally amazed by the sound it has reached out. I do not put any effect on the amp, although I think investing a little reverb.
I play on the clean channel Tiny, we say the middle volume, and the tone with the gain set to a quarter. When the channel is the reverse Fat I push the gain near maximum volume through the quarter with the tone in the middle.
Actually I pushed the buttons a little in every sense and I have not yet found a sound that I dislike?
OVERALL OPINION
I use it now since the beginning of the month and I'm not disappointed, the price / quality ratio is excellent. I had the opportunity to try a home Marshall JCM900 and a Blackheart 50 watt All Tube. And I confess that far outperforms the Dual. However, the sound tends to be somewhat shy and very quickly becomes crunchy clean if we push the watts. Attention has therefore those seeking crystal clear fender, where a distortion worthy of the old Marshall amps.
The Dual Terror is more like a big distortion pedal.
That said I would do without this choice problem and therefore has advised those looking for a head lamps all (well all lamps on paper) for a price not too excessive.
