I still have my old Powersoak. Used it throughout the 80s & early 90s; it held up well through thousands of gigs.
Works great on the loudest couple of notches, soaking up a bit of stage level. Never got it to sound good with a lot of reduction though.
Of course, that was using a beastly loud Boogie half stack. Might do better with a smaller amp.
I don't have my Rockman anymore. Nothing sounds quite like 'em..

Morning workout, now i can rehearse from 04:00 to 06:00 without dragging out a 1/2 stack & without bothering ANYBODY including the wifey and the sound quality of the Rockman is so good im not sacrificing tone. Its got just enough hair on the distortion & the clean is even better sounding than most tube amps.
Thanks Tom Scholz.Last edited by JMP/HBE; 08-18-2020, 04:17 AM.

First, that Vid of Tom in your first post, Looks like NASA mission control in his studio.. LOL I have one (two actually) and the rack unit. Neither of mine have the control on the back. ??? I love the tone of them and convenience. Id love to get more of the units, especially the power soak.. But finances prohibit these days..Believe me when I say that some of the most amazing music in history was made on equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.

I only paid $160 shipped for my power soak but the average price was about $250 so i jumped on it.
Only took 40 years to get a discount ha !
Keep watching ebay & reverb deals to be had.Last edited by JMP/HBE; 08-19-2020, 02:52 PM.

Good to know! was going to ask how it actually works. I know the hotplates and some of the others can be steep. I have a super cheap no name thing I bought off of ebay. I was chaining 2 together. cool thing with my splawn is that I can run the loop as a master too. But, it doesnt work well if you do try to push alil more volume . But, Kinda the point huh?? hahaBelieve me when I say that some of the most amazing music in history was made on equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.
