  1. I took delivery of a Tube 800 a couple of weeks ago to replace my terminally ill Kilo, tried it out through both my cab set ups now @ 4ohms through an Orange SP212 & an old Carlsbro cab that I had Fane Collosus 15" 400w put in, it was pretty loud through that I can assure you and no problem getting a suitable sound. Tried it this week through my Matamp 6x10 @ 8ohm and was again very pleased with the sound, to my ear it sounded nicer through the Matamp than my OTB 500.

  2. I bought one of these,

    last week for my new Markbass head to live in, it's basically a clone of a Peli case but at a quarter of the price, it has all the protection you could ask for at the price, pick n pluck foam interior so you can custom fit it to whatever will fit inside it.

  3. Just curious I suppose, I read about the improvement in tone someone got by sticking a Gold Lion in their Hartke LH and was wondering if the Kilo would respond to a little valve swapping, I know the LH series only the one 12AX7 whereas I have 3 in the Kilo, which of the 3 would have the most influence if any on the amps sound? I'm happy with the amp it sounds fine and has more tones than I'll ever use, but as I say I'm just curious as to the effect a different valve/valves may have.

  4. Anyone played around with different valves than the standard actory fitted ones? I read the Terror Bass valve swap thread and wondered if the Kilo would respond to a bit of swapping in a similar way, as i've not done this before and as there are 3 12ax7 tubes in it, which tube/tubes would respond best to swapping? Any and all ideas welcome.
