Krank Rev SST

[Lasse Lammert]

yo
apparently the preampsection is the same as in the revolution+......so what I'm thinking is: couldn't I just get the SST and run it from the FX send through the return of my Stein+ and get a Rev+ should work shouldn't it.

also...share your experiences with the SST...it's rather decently priced, so I'm curious...would use it for recording and live

sounds like you could, it could sound very close as it does have 3 preamp tubes.

so has the rev+, doesn't it?
at least what I read is that the rev+ and the SST have the same preamp section. I haven't seen any schematics though

well id assume its similar because any hi-gain amp is going to have least 4-5 preamp tubes. so with a standard rev its got 4, so just take out the phase inverter and you got 3, so who knows.

yeah, as far as I know the Rev (as well as the Stein) has 3 preamp tubes.
It's got 4 12ax7, but only three of those are preamp-tubes, one is the phase inverter/driver tube, which belongs to the poweramp.
so I'd get the 4th 12ax7 from the poweramp of the stein+.

I'd be interested in hearing how this sounds Lasse that's for sure.

Also very interested about this amp..
Was going to buy one but I was worried about the solid state power section and how it would sound..

Sorry for bumping up this thread, but I was considering this amp as a gigging/rehearshal amp, but the youtube clips are not really good ( unless I forgot to put on the camcorder to studio sound converter)
Anyone tried the amp?
