Tteemuk replied to the thread Try as I may to find out: Solid State:Tube Ratio?.Yes. And this again comes right down to very issue of not everything else being equal. We are not comparing watt vs. watt but amp vs...

Tteemuk replied to the thread Try as I may to find out: Solid State:Tube Ratio?.So you're basically implying that i.e. Quilter or BluGuitar amps do not feel quite right at higher volume levels? I'm not sure all of us...

Tteemuk replied to the thread Try as I may to find out: Solid State:Tube Ratio?.It's also worthwhile to acknowledge that as much as doubling the output power results to only a puny 3 dB increase in SPL generated by...

Tteemuk replied to the thread Try as I may to find out: Solid State:Tube Ratio?.That solid-state power amps hard clip nastily is as much as pointless generalisation that tube power amps soft clip warmly. Scope them...

Tteemuk replied to the thread What are the Mesa and Soldano "sounds"?.Overall I'd say there is much more variety in Mesa amps than in Soldanos. Soldano designs nearly always follow the same signature SLO...

Tteemuk replied to the thread What are the Mesa and Soldano "sounds"?.Actually it was Marshall that took the idea of "cascading" channels to create 2203/2204, it is downright obvious from circuit diagrams...

TActually futes made a huge advance in 1847, when Theobald Boehm introduced his cylindrical bore, keyed metal flute. Before that flutes...
