Hi guys. :)

I bought Triaxis(used) not so long ago and noticed
pretty big noise,specially when using LD1 red mode,even with HBs.
So I ordered retube kit from Eurotubes,still waiting for it.
I was wondering,could it be something else and not only tubes,
perhaps a "bad" component inside of unit?


Every feedback is well appreciated,thanks in advance! :)

If you have the Recto board, it's Lead 1 Red. Because there is more available gain, there is more hiss/noise.

I asked Boogie about this years ago. They suggested a Noise Gate, or Rocktron Hush for that mode. Unfortunately it's the nature of the beast.

The other modes are much quieter, and fortunately for me, I didn't use the Recto mode anyway.

Thanks,that clears things a lot! :)

Anyway that I could check is it Recto Board,a marking or som?

Email Mesa and they should know by the serial #. Also, the Rectifier tone and gain structure is quite different than the Mark series. Another way is to open the top and have a look inside.

Lead 1 red is noisy...so is Lead 2 red.

Hmm,I'm on Mesa site atm and I can't see the email option,
only phone etc.. :(

So lets say I open the unit,what do I need to look at,any hints?

Thanks once more! :)
