Currently, all my amps are solid state. And although they sound nice, I want something with a lot more 'oomph', hi-gain stuff. A Marshall lead-12 just doesn't have that.
I play at home most of the time, but to also go out to gig with friends. 'There' I have a 100w solid state Marshall, and I...
Just got myself a new Engl e530 so decided to do a short test recording. Here's what I used
Guitar - Ibanez RGR 08 Ltd > Engl e530 > Cab Impulse > Line6 UX2
Bass - Spector Rex4 > Line6 UX2 (Bass tone via Podfarm)
Drums - Superior Drummer 2
What do you guys think of the tone and how do...
ive been having some trouble with my engl pre amp. after running fine for a few moments it gets short volume spikes, cracking and popping, and hissing noises and then goes away. sort of like an old tube going bad. but it still does it with new tubes. ive changed all cords, different guitars...
Currently I am using a rocktron velocity 300 as my pa (which has to go for obvious reasons) for my Engl e530. I've debated switching over from a rack unit to a head such as the peavey 5150, have decided on keeping my e530 and just getting a new pa. My question is what pa should i use? I'm...
Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Hi guys. I'm Ricky. I have an ENGL E530 pre-amp for sale. This thing is in great shape. This ENGL has been owned by a few members here. I bought it from "Primordium" in January when I was planning on buying a rack setup. I have played it for maybe 5...
Hey guys!
Just wandering if anyone has any tips or advive on recording with these two bits of gear? I havnt got a cab at the mo, but just wandering if anyones tried this. Like should i use the ENGL pre or post POD? or should i bypass the amp sim on the POD and use the ENGL? Ive also got a ART...
Hey guys!
I bought a E530 pre for xmas! which im happy about =] ...Just wandering if anyone on here has any experience with combining the E530 with a PODxt Pro? More for recording than live at the mo. I also have a boss NS2, ART valve comp and sometimes my 31band EQ in the chain :S Im aiming...
Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar:ENGL e530,Mesa 50/50, SKB 4 space rack case. I am the original owner of both the ENGL and the Rack case. The ENGL is in near perfect condition and still has all the paperwork. I bought the Mesa about 2 months ago off of a seller on HC, haven't checked...
Went and picked up my new Engl e530 preamp today.
Any more words needed? Don't think so, other than yes, it has plenty of gain, and yes, it does sound brutal.
Here's a clip :hbang:
EDIT:
I made another clip this morning with my 7, didn't change settings too much, but added an SD-1...
About a week back I spotted an online classified of a guy selling his Engl E530 pre-amp here in Ireland. I decided I'd see what people were talking about with all the Engl buzz and I plumbed for it. It's been at home for the last few days but I just got back from College so I'm only getting to...
What I'm looking to do is add a preamp to run through my F-30's poweramp to give me more tonal options. Tone wise, I'm looking for something opposite of my Mesa, and from the clips I've heard the E530 seems like it. I realize there probably aren't too many people who have A/B'ed both an E530 and...
To the mods: I am not sure if this is the correct place for this, if it isn't feel free to move it. Thanks.

I am going to buy one but there is a little problem. There is one new in Australia for $1300 + shipping but I'm a cheap bastard and this seems like poor value considering how much they go for in other countries.
Looking at this pic it seems that the Euro version uses the same transformer as...
