chris_b Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I'd run 2 4 ohm amps, one into each 4 ohm cab and daisy chain the amps. I did this when I owned 2 TH500's (main amp and backup). A 2 amp/2 cab rig running in this way will be significantly louder than 1 amp running at 2 ohms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 [quote name='lowregisterhead' timestamp='1504808959' post='3367533'] I looked at the Darkglass, but I was slightly put off by the emphasis on distortion settings. Not to say it wouldn't do crystal clear, so it certainly warrants more research. [/quote] It will do proper clean piano tone. I like that tone too. As it happens I often still put one of the drive circuits on but at almost zero drive - seems to add something I like without driving it.

mcnach Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 [quote name='lowregisterhead' timestamp='1504808682' post='3367527'] Thanks for the suggestion, but I've never got on with Boogies for some reason, too 'rock' tone-wise in my (admittedly limited) experience. [/quote] well, you could do worse than having a try yourself... the Mesa D800 (or better the D800+!) is a great amp, and very versatile. Try one if you can, I think you might change your mind about the 'too rock' vibe! I prefer the D800+ because the built-in adjustable HPF is a great addition and worth the extra cost alone. I play mostly ska and funk and it works very well for both styles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
