Eich T-1000/Darkglass MT900V2 owner reviews

Hi

I’m looking to upgrade my GK 1001RBii head and like the look of the Eich T-1000 and the Darkglass MT900V2. 

I have 2 x 8 ohm Vanderkley 210MNT cabs. 

Just looking for some thoughts from existing users of either amp.

i like the flexibility of the output from both of these amps and also the fact they both have built in compressors.

My band plays a variety of venue sizes and we play folk rock style music.

Any thoughts or other amp recommends welcome!

I had the TecAmp Puma amp which basically is the Eich and a V1 Darkglass 

 

They are so massively different they are not really alternatives to each other. The Puma is the cleanest amp I’ve ever played. Too clean for me in the end. I found it a bit sterile.

 

Of course the DG will do metal, but it’s got a good clean core sound too. I found it far more versatile than the Puma even when playing clean.

 

i kept the DG and sold the Puma.

However if you want a clean non-sterile amp as an alternative then the brand new Markbass Marcus Limited Gold Line is a cracker. Better EQ centres than the Puma and other Markbass heads, and has a warmth to it that the Puma couldn’t do.
