ozzy138 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Just how loud are a 100 watts out of a valve amp? I've got a Orange terror 500, are they a comparable bit of kit?

Billy Apple Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 I've got a 100 watt Burman and it's plenty loud, believe me. Valve watts are worth double of any of your digital thingies.

Are you far from the station? I'm in Surrey myself (just) and had been wondering whether I might be able to pay you a visit and take it for a test-drive at some point.

I wouldn't be able to totally drown everyone out - but it sits high enough in the mix with a nice bit of snarl from the power section. Sounds ace. No probs so far

Merton Posted February 9, 2015 Author Posted February 9, 2015 Having owned an ABM500 I'd say it was on a par
Merton Posted February 9, 2015 Author Posted February 9, 2015 PS did you ask this on eBay recently as I had a very similar question when it was on there?!
