I availing oneself of this amp for 1 year. Purchased with Universal Guitar Paris / Pigalle with its 1x12 cabinet
- What type of amplification (lamp, transistor ,...)?
Amplification lamps:
-2 X 5881 Sovtek power.
-3 X 12AX7 in Pramper.
- What is the power dlivre?
25 watts (which is what is written on the documentation supplied with the amp)
! Enough for group play! I've never pushed back.
- What connection?
- An input.
- A Line Out.
- Two speaker outputs with 8 or 16 ohm selector.
- An active effects loop with volume pot level.
- A voltage selector 110/240.
- What are the rglages, effects ...?
2 channel switchable by a selector in facade.
- A channel Kleen with only a volume control. No EQ.
- A channel with a Krank standard EQ (bass / med / high), displaces a sweep for the band of medium frequency drives. The volume knob Kleen channel becomes knob gain, a knob for master volume ddi.
- Both channels are boostable by a small boost button.
Kleen channel without boost: clear sound
Kleen channel + boost: clear sound that saturates a little, but much more dynamic and medium.
krank channel without boost: From Crunch to rock to heavy metal show nerv era.
Krank channel + boost: the most modern heavy metal until a saturation level which dboite very current.
I removed one because there is no footswitch possible, and the volume of the channel becomes clear that knob gain (you can imagine when you switch from a mega Kleen disto ...)
UTILIZATION
- The configuration is simple?
The setup is very simple.
- Do you get easily a good sound?
Like any amp lamps, there are some subtleties that must be apprehensive. In terms of this amp, the more you put medium and the sound is better. APRS is a matter of taste. Otherwise yes, it is easy to get a good sound.
Small details, I only speak the Krank channel because the channel Kleen is not adjustable.
- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
A single sheet is provided. Above, there is a detailed descriptions of the amp and some notes on In the way of using it. English course.
I retired as a channel Kleen is not adjustable.
SOUNDS
- Should your style of music?
Yes. I play rock (Lenny Kravitz, Ben Harper, Telephone) to metal (Gojira, Sepultura, Soulfly, Mnemic, Strapping Young Lad)
- With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
- An Epiphone G400 in Mount Seymour Duncan SH6 Distortion. (CGCGCE)
- A signature DK6 Jackson Fear Factory / EMG81. (Drop B)
- An Ibanez ART-120 Mount Kit with Zakk Wylde EMG81/85. (E Standard)
During the year, no effect.
- What kind of sound you get and with what rglages ("crystalline", "fat ",....)?
The Kleen channel is very cool I think. It is highly neutral, neither too flashy nor too crystalline. It's the lack of rglages.
With the boost is the same, but more showy. But everything can be fixed with a pedal or rack qualisation.
Krank channel is very rock. The sound is very rockayeux and medium. This is what characterizes the amps krank is cluck their medium. This fact is apparent in the mix as well as better training. However it has to take the necessary push the medium. Logical right?
When you push the medium until 5, I think the guitar really has no presence, but from 5 to change everything.
Then thanks to knob Sweep, you can have a low medium or high are medium, ie fat and dug or with more acute and presence throughout. A knob is very convenient but with time I do I never go below 4 or above 7. Beyond the sound is too loud or too closed. Other qualities: his warm and straight.
Same thing for the Krank channel + boost. A few diffrence prt: More gain, more presence, has not ring-a honeycomb is very specific on the distortion and warm. Many will say that there is not enough gain at the end of race is wrong! Because beyond will no longer distinguish what you day! This is the caractristique Premire of this amp: The precision. A clear, precise, warm. Then, between each riff there is no noise. It's like if there was a small noise gate intgr it. I also want Specifies that a whole, the distortion of this amp is really even when compressed while retaining the dynamics.
Clearly if you play or the Meshuggah Mnemic ago via s'clater.
- What are the sounds you prfrez that hates you?
I hates to be dug or equa V is even worse with this amp. Also, I tried to used the effects loop with various pedals: crap! The sound kind of small HP macdrive macdo home. So -1.
I like his presents and rock. Small + o for serious tuning this amp is gnial.
OVERALL OPINION
- For how long have you been using it?
1 year.
- What is the specific feature you like best, the least?
+ The distortion is gnial rock and metal. The true sound Krank.
+ The sweep.
+ The two outputs to the speakers history pter (and his back)
+ Finally an amp Hi Gain 25 watt All Tube!
- Over time, my tastes with Volusion, I find this amp a little too "Hi Fi" and a little too creusdans the medium sometimes.
- No rglage canal Kleen.
- No footswitch.
Effects loop-rots.
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
I played on the biggest studio (amp that I do not availing oneself). Mesa Dual rectify, 5150, Marshall JCM900.
One day I tried a Krank Revolution Series 1 and i fell in love with the distortion. Since I could not afford to offer me this amp, I turned to the Rev. JR which owns circuit distortion strongly inspired ort 1.
- How do you report qualitprix?
820 Euros for the head + 1x12 cabinet.
Everything is mounted hand, the baffle is made of birch and has an Eminence Legend V12.
Report qualitprix very good.
- With the exprience, you do again this election? ...
If you recognize yourself in all that you and your opinion in the same case as me the era (not enough tune and need a good distortion), go there with confidence. However, it was not there the most complete version of the Krank Rev Jr. is the Pro version. Inquire when same, may be intressant.
