Hey dudes,
As a sequel to my previous threads about which amp I should choose, well let me just tell you I'm going to own all my favorites now
. I got a Mesa Boogie Dual Caliber DC-5 combo in a trade today (loud!), I thought I was moving a baby elephant, man that amp is heavy! It sounds amazing though. I also got the Marshall JCM800 2210 which is likely to arrive tomorrow. Not to worry Rivera voters, I'm selling the Boogie on monday and am going to use the money to pay for the Knucklehead 100. I really regret doing this, but that's life: Decisions, decisions, decisions. Hope the Rivera makes up for this in sound, the Boogie sounds amazing though!
Now I'm only keeping the Rivera, unless it will be disappointing, the rest is going off for sale again. So now I need a cab for it. I was thinking a 2x12 loaded with V30's (ENGL, Mesa, Diezel perhaps, Brunetti, you name it) or a 4x12 with Greenback speakers (Marshall 1960AX or Framus Cobra cabinet). I don't live in the USA so Avatar isn't an option, too bad
Two conditions:
1) Is the 4x12 louder than the 2x12, meaning which of the cabs will my neighbours hear easier? Greenback 4x12=100W, V30 2x12=120W
2) I need a fat high-gain sound for riffs, excellent response to my playing, no shrill or super-thin highs, I sometimes play shred, great harmonics, MOST IMPORTANTLY: must not mud up! I hate it when that happens
Thanks again
