    Mesa Dual vs Single vs Mini Rectifier

    I now have 3 different Mesa Boogie Rectifiers. I love Rectifiers and you can never have enough of a good thing imho ;) The ones that I have are: - early 2000s 3 channel Dual Rectifier - series I Single Rectifier 50 - Mini Rectifier 25 I definitely wanted to do a comparison since they all sound...

    NAD: Mesa Boogie Single Rectifier Series 1

    Bought a Mesa Boogie Single Rectifier Series 1 yesterday from a nice fellow for a good price! It appears to be in great shape too but it doesn't have a footswitch. I have a Dual Rectifier and a Mini Rectifier but I've never tried a single Rectifier. I was very curious about trying one. Luckily...

    NRPD: The Holy Grail has been found...

    And retrieved. After a long time, I finally managed to hunt down an early '97 TriAxis. Specifically a "non-phat Recto (TX4-D) model for those in the know. A rare beast (specially the EU voltage version) made from 93 to 97. Tubes on it are TAD 12AX7A-C. It's in a very good cosmetic...

    Mesa Prices Come down in Europe and UK

    Essentially, shops can now buy direct from Mesa like they do in the USA instead of going through a distributor, and can pass along the savings. And the savings can be quite significant, even close to a grand in some cases!

    Boogie Mark 5 thirty-five goodness!

    Hi all, I've had this amp for about a year now but I've finally made an in-depth demo of my Mesa Boogie Mark 5 thirty-five! I won't lie, it took a while for me to learn how to dial it in but now that I've spent more time with it than ever before I can say that I really love this amp! I guess...

    MESA/Boogie Mark V 35 vs Mini Rectifier 25

    Hey guys! Someone requested a comparison between my Mark V 35 and my Mini Rectifier 25 and I thought it was a great idea! Both amps are great but they have very unique voices and features. The dirtier it gets the bigger the differences are between the two. I love both so I wouldn't want to...

    The mighty Mini Rectifier Twenty-Five!

    Love this amp! Picked it up used some months ago. Now I finally took some time to really test this amp and put it through it's paces. First lets get this out of the way: this thing absolutely DOES do the Mesa and Rectifier name justice. A lot of people will say stuff like 'I prefer big bottles'...

    The trick to getting the Mark V right

    I love my Mark V 35 but it took me a while to realise how to dial it in (properly) for my personal tastes anyways. I guess in the beginning I was looking too much at settings that other guys used, especially with the older Mark series amps. One of the things guys like to do to tighten these amps...

    The underrated 3 channel Dual Rectifier

    I've been a huge Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier fan for as long as I can remember. Needless to say I was pretty stoked when I got this Recto. It's a 2000's 3 channel solo head, so the non-multiwatt one. For some reason this 'revision' doesn't get as much love as the older 2 channel Recto's but I...

    NAD: Mesa/Boogie Rectifier Twenty-Five! (ow yeaahhh)

    I got a used Mesa Mini Recto head last week! I already own a 100w Dual Rectifier but I've also really wanted a mini for ages. They're so tiny but they really sound amazing! I'm a huge fan of mini amps in general but this is one of the most impressive ones so far, for me personally. It sounds...

    Dialing in the Mesa/Boogie Mark V (35)

    I've had the Mark V 35 head for about 5 months now. It's a pretty incredible amp but in my experience for studio work at least it's not easy to dial in 'right' (whatever that means for me haha). However, once you hit the sweet spot it sounds really good! I have a couple of observations about...

    Why don't all Dual Rec's come with Mesa's signature 5-band EQ?

    I only just now started using Mesa's 5-Band EQ Pedal with my dual rec, and it's seriously brought the amp to life. Particularly the middle 3 bands of the EQ have been the most helpful. The presence and bass on the amp itself are pretty damn close to the respective 80 & 6600Hz on the EQ... but...

    Shure SM57 vs. Sennheiser e609 for capturing heavy Dual Rec tone?

    This would be in conjunction with my Royer 121. I only just recently acquired a Dual Rec, and have never recorded myself with one. (I've grown used to my JP-2C). I'm running the dual rec through my only cab, an Orange 2x12, so there is plenty of depth and THICC body. I've also got Mesa's dope...

    Mesa/Boogie Mark V 35 high gain mode comparison

    Hey guys! I've been loving the crap out of my Boogie Mark V 35. When I was considering buying one I had my doubts about the low-end because some people online stated that the smaller MK V amps didn't have enough low-end oomph. I have a couple other EL84 amps and those sound fine so I just went...

    New Amp Head? (Mesa Mark V 25 vs ???)

    Hey Guys, looking for some amp advice; My current rig is a 6505+112 combo running into a Mesa 2x12 cab and I'm looking into making the leap into a full head/crate setup. I don't need anything with too much power because for the most part I play at home, but do jam semi-regularly with friends. As...
