Hello,
Was hoping I could get some advice from all you knowledgable folks.
I've been lusting after a nice high gain metal amp and I simply love that crushing rectifier sound. So that's sorted. The only trouble is that I live in relatively confined quarters and by relatively limited means, which means that a 50W single rec is really my only choice. Yes I know that the single rec only has diode rectification etc etc, but it's simply the price I have to pay. With approaching middle age I have enough sag in my life anyway!
My question is, what cabinet would best suit a single rec? Given space constraints and my poor back we can pretty much rule out quads. What's good in a 212 capacity? I hear good things about Orange 212s. Can anyone confirm that or make another suggestions? The sound I'm chasing is the kind of high gain chugga chugga from bands like Fear Factory, Meshuggah and Strapping Young Lad. Never been much of a lead player, but decent cleans would be nice.
Thanks in advance.
