fatgoogle Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I bought an ashdown mag 600 R in the end. A bit disappointing, but it gets the job nicely done. Just winderng how loud is a 100 valve watts turned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used it for band practice last night. Plus I still have to try it at 4 ohms, which should make it quite a bit louder. I'll sell something else instead, probably my minimark. Thanks everyone!

If you're running more cabs to get it down to 4 then it will still sound bigger anyway though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it won't be putting out any more watts at 4 ohms, but like you say it should sound "bigger", especially since im just running it through a markbass 102HF at the moment. Sounds fantastic, but only for smaller gigs me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think this amp is not what you're really looking for Jesse .. I've heard they are rubbish !! So I think you should get rid whilst someone naive like me really wants (to try) one ... so sell it to me !! lol (actually haven't heard a bad thing about 'm) Enjoy it .. I'm guessing it likes to be cranked ! Si ps. was really looking forward to 'cranking' that myself ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've actually lent out my 2nd cab to a mate, so I can't try it at 4 ohms yet. If I'm disapointed, I'll be in touch don't worry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
