thepurpleblob Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I'm a valve cynic. What's not "warm" about solid state amps? It's all in your head... or the EQ... or both. Let the flaming commence 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Warm soiled state? 💩 As per the other thread, digital modelling can accurately emulate a valve pre. The only part that can't be replicated is a valve power stage. It's hard to get the bounce of KT88s or 6550s digitally.

taunton-hobbit Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I've just shuffled my living room about, having put a load of Orange/Matamp/Crown/Marshall up on the Bay (usual idiot timewasters....) I'm now down to my very own personal sound choice: 2x Barefaced Dubsters powered by a 300 (1970?)(Mathias) Matamp slave (KT120 x4) 2x Mackie C200 tops powered by a 120 (1969) OrangeMatamp (EL34 x 4) 1x Focusrite Compounder 1x Generic frequency splitter 1x Numark CDN77 twin cd deck 1x Denon DNX500 preamp/mixer Nothing 'solid state even comes close ...... this set's a Keeper.........I'm playing Joe Gibbs (reggae) as I type I think I'm in love........... 😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visog Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Loads of pre-amp options... some good suggestions so far. I'll dive in with tube-loaded Two Notes Le Bass or Darkglass' solid-state range which all sound awesome with varying degrees of grit. Sensing for this OP the Vintage Ultra being the most appropriate.

dave_bass5 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Is this a joke thread? Seems like the OP was making puns as there is obviously no need for this thread to be legit is there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
