    Nearly 10 year old ENGL preamp

    Hi guys, needing your sage advice :) I'm considering jumping the gun on a nearly 10 year old ENGL e570 preamp. :bowdown: However I'm concerned that its age will give me more problems than it should. It looks clean on the outside... I haven't seen it in person but the description mentions no...

    Engl Ironball vs EVH 5150 Mini

    Looking for a new amp to play mostly at home (although not keeping aside the possibility of jamming). :hbang: (I alread have an HT-5R that I like, but I'm looking for something of a new flavour.. ) It may not seem like a fair comparison since one amp is 50 wats and the other one 20...

    Changing a tube amp's power tubes and biasing

    I was wondering how many of you here change the power tubes and adjust the bias of your tube amps on your own ? I am considering getting an Engl Ironball which runs on EL84s. Looking at the manual it says that after changing power tubes the bias has to be adjusted and that this whole process...

    Bogner Cube or Engl E112VB

    Has anyone ever tried both of these two cabinets ? Bogner Cube or Engl E112 VB ? :hbang: A discounted Cube just showed up nearby hence my question.. I'm looking for a 1x12 cabinet mostly for jamming at home with my current amp (a Blackstar HT-5R 1x12 combo). And although the amp sounds good...

    Blackstar HT-5R vs HT-5 Metal

    Hey guys, Found a nice video of the HT-5 Metal (finally a proper demo). They even go as far as comparing it to the HT-5R although I must say... the difference to my ears is very very subtle!! The HT-5R sounds a bit more dry where as the HT-5 Metal seems to have a little extra gain (can also be...

    Mackie MkII MR5 (coming from 2.1 Logitech speakers)

    Hey guys, I currently have a pair of 2.1 desktop speakers from Logitech (X230 model). These are OK for jamming with a POD or something similar and they can get loud.. although I find that the mid / top end can distort quickly. However since they have a subwoofer the bass kicks decently. I...

    ENGL E112VB Pro / Mesa Mini Recto 1x12 Straight

    Which of these bad boys for home use and recording ? :hbang: Both with V30s, both closed back cabs, both made of plywood :) Where I am the ENGL is cheaper than the Mesa. But the ENGL is also a bit wider and heavier than the Mesa (bigger box = bigger sound ?)

    Peavey Revalver - from zero to hero

    Recently I've tried the Peavey Revalver Mk III.V (demo version) and honestly I didn't dig it at all. All the amp sims seemed very buzzy... lacking body.. or too grainy and fizzy (both through their own Cabinets or Recabinet). Yesterday I tried putting a compressor simulation behind a JSX...

    POD Farm sound quality (vs X3 live) - a question of sample rate ?

    Hey guys, I've got a POD X3 Live and with it, the POD Farm (2.5 Platinum I believe). I'm trying to use the POD Farm with my newly acquired RME Babyface and my Macbook Pro (late 2011 model). First thing I though was that I could use the same custom patches I've made for the X3 in Pod...

    Reamping with or without reamp box

    Hey guys, I've always heard that you need a reamp box to do reamping. These boxes are a bit on the exensive side (Radial Engineering at the top of the league, Palmer Daccapo on the cheaper side). But do you even need one of these ? Yesterday I tried one of Ola Englund's DI tracks from...

    POD/AXE-FX/similar, VSTs, real amps or everything combined for home use

    This is a bit of an interesting and vast topic I think :) Would be cool to hear some opinions and experiences. I've recently got hold of a RME Babyface and it suddenly opened the door to lots of experimentation! I'm still at the early steps but hell there's so much to try! I should say...

    Recording through the FX-send of an amp = low output ?

    Hi guys, I've finally received my RME Babyface and promptly jumped into trying to record my Blackstar HT-5R via the FX-send (I know the amp has a simulated headphones out but I wanted to try using impulses on the unfiltered signal). So I connected an instrument<->XLR from the FX-send to the...

    Hi there brothers of metal, I'm considering getting a cab to have around the house for noddling and maybe recording some stuff. This cab would go with my Blackstar HT-5 or perhaps a soon to be new toy. :cool: I have considered getting a 2x12 cabinet for a fat low end (like the Zilla...

    Torpedo Live vs Palmer PDI/PGA

    Hey guys, You are probably familiar with the Torpedo Live and Palmer PDI/PGA series since they're both loadboxes with cabinet simulation, basically allowing you to play an amp and mic it silently without a cabinet. :hbang: From the videos that I've seen on YouTube the Torpedo seems to have...
