I'm not too familiar with Carvin power amps but there are boatloads of cheap alternatives out there. I'm currently using an ADA microtube 200. It is a solid state but has 2 12AX7s with a presence control to give it some tube flavor. I got mine for $45. For other solid states, check out the Tube Works Mosvalve and Hafler also has a Mosfet Tube amp. Tube Works and Hafler both nailed the mosfet circuitry though Hafler's is a hair better. For tube, check out old Peavey power amps like the 60/60 or 120/120. Peavey is one of the few big name companies that you can get vintage amplifiers from for extremely cheap. They're always changing up models and designs and quite a number of them are gems.

edit: The Hafler power amp was the G300.

Nice. I'll look into those.
Rocktron also makes a solid state, Velocity 300 or something like that.
My Ampeg is a beast so im gonna use that as my poweramp for now. The Digitech sounds cool as hell though.

If I'm correct on this, couldn't you run one of the "channel outs" on the Digitech into the "input" of the Ampeg, then out the "effects out" of the Ampeg, back into the "channel in" Digitech, then out the "output" of the Digitech into the "effects in" on the Ampeg? That way you could utilize the preamp on the Ampeg by setting it to a channel on the Digitech for when you wanted to while also using it as a slave for the Digitech presets. Or is that what you were already planning?

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

No clue what you just said

 

[viewerfromnihil]

Excuse my lack of MS Paint skills...

Step 1: Ampeg input

Step 2: Preamp output (I haven't used the amp before so I'm not sure how it would work with using both the wet and dry. If it fails, just use the dry.)

Step 3: Power amp input

I suggested this so that you could still use the on board distortion on the Ampeg whenever you wanted to.

Making stupid playlists in itunes, trying to convince myself that I'm somehow being "creative" by doing so.

So I met Roland Emmerich last night in a Berlin punk rock bar at about 4am. I managed to keep a straight face when saying Independence Day was a good movie. Didnt say anything about Godzilla though

Trying to figure out a sentence from a youtube channel.

My Dvd Collection update where i talk about and review the films ive gotten over the past 3 weeks and give my review of them and the reviews of the movies themselves.

He reviews the films and gives his review of them, as well as the reviews of the movies? So basically he reviews the movies two times, and then he proceeds to review his first set of movie reviews. What a retard.

 

[Cronopio]

I'm pretty sure that rambling means that he only reviews them twice. Way to assrape syntax, though.

 

[damnromulans]

Listening to Sentenced and remembering a certain high school romance. I slept for 14 hours last night and had extremely vivid dreams.

 

[Cronopio]

Apart from Sentenced that seems like it's been lifted right out of a novel by Haruki Murakami.

 

[damnromulans]

Would you say that if I weren't in Japan? And yeah Sentenced has no place in Murakami's world.

 

[Cronopio]

Probably not. It has something to do with you being Asian-American (is that the pc way of putting it?)
