Re: Best Modern Amp for Metal and Rock?

Wanna bolt of lightning??
We used to have some god for that as well;)
Monotheistic gods are dull.....they think they have it all:D
Besides it is custom here to mock the deity's here.
What is the use of them anyways?
And what do they have to do with amps?

I think most people have no idea how much gain you get get out of an Ecstasy GJ! You need to post some red-channel clips. I don't think Krank belongs on this list in any way, shape or form. I don't think there is a single part on a Krank that Reinhold Bogner or Peter Diezel would use in a temporary loaner amp. If you were playing straight metal I'd probably go with a Herbert over the VH4. Save $150 and get three channels over four.


RGN this is way off topic but i have to say that ass in your avatar is absolutely incredible! :bowdown:

Continuing OT: My Finnish friend told me Finnish is a very different language from most. It has a little in common with Estonian and shares about 200 words with Hungarian (which she also speaks). Europeans make me feel so dumb...:sad:

Sorry for being OT: My knowledge is very supeficial, but here's what I know. Suomi (Finnish) is different from the others because - as I know - ancestor tribes of today's Finnish, Estonian and Hungarian people used to live together on the eastern side of Ural, as a popular theory says. All three languages are known as members of the Finno-Ugor family. Finnish and Ugor tribes got separated, most claim in the 4th millennium. DNA researches don't really support this theory though. However, a lot of words and some sentences are similar in Suomi and Hungarian (found them in Wikipedia):

Jään alla talvella elävät kalat uiskentelevat.
Jég alatt télen eleven halak úszkálnak.

Kivistä verinen oli vävyn käsi.
Kövektől véres volt veje keze.

Orvon silmä kyyneliä täynnä.
Árva szeme könnyel tele.

Kuka meni meidän edessämme?
Ki ment mielőttünk?

Miniäni antoi voita.
Menyem adott vajat.

Diesel for me ... More MPG :laugh2:

What about a Boogie ?
 
Re: Best Modern Amp for Metal and Rock?

I like the Diezel, it is just fat and toneful

I like the Grainy tone and POUNDING LOW END on the UBER

Haven't used the ENGL
Didn't care much for the Krank

GEARJONES I didn't get the kinda chunk I wanted out of the Ecstasy compared to the Uber

VHT
CAE OD100
Soldano


sorry i didnt like the Diezel VH4 too compressed sounding to me.

Very interesting! Linguistics is a facinating study...
 
Re: Best Modern Amp for Metal and Rock?

For some on topic contribution:

I don't have a lot of experience with Diezel or ENGL, but I think the Mesa Road King has to be worth a look. It does EL34 AND 6L6 at the same time in a footswitchable configuration. That kind of feature is pretty awesome IMO...

Re: Best Modern Amp for Metal and Rock?

I went with the Bogner Uberschall, but honestly these other ones I think are all GREAT for modern rock/metal:
*CAA OD-100SE
*VHT Ultra Lead
*Diezel VH4
