    Noob Power Amp Question.

    So, I'm not as experienced in certain areas just yet but I keep hearing about bassists using power amps for a clean signal. I don't quite know what they mean are they talking about regular power amps used to power live setups with a mixer & stage monitors? I have one of these from back in the...

    Suggestions on power amps?

    So I'm new to rack gear entirely and am getting a Pod HD500X. What would be a suitable(and somewhat affordable) rack mount power amp? I currently have a Bogera 412H-BK cab and eventually want to purchase an Orange cab.

    New to rack setup: can I use a stereo power amp for guitar?

    Title says most of it. I bought a POD HD pro x and really love using it, but I want to hear it through my Marshall MG412a rather than headphones. There are a few power amps for sale on my local craigslist but the look like they are used for stereo systems and I was just wondering if there was a...

    Engl power amps

    Hi, I got an Engl E570 preamp that I run through a VHT 2/90/2. Even though it's tight I can't help to think it is somewhat too thin sounding, will it get more brutal lower end if I pair it with an Engl 6L6 power amp? I was thinking the E840/50 or the Engl E850/100, the latter is really...

    I figure if I'm looking for an amp, I may as well look in the category of separate preamps and power amps too. But I don't know of many. As for preamps, I know of: Mesa Recto recording pre/triaxis ENGL tube preamps (too expensive though) ? Power amps: Carvin TS100 ? I'm just looking for...
