blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

well HT-1 and JVM-1 will be the most versatile.

JCM one will be classic sounding, not so great cleans.
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

Isn't the Blackstar much much much less expensive? I mean, I guess it depends on what you're playing and what your needs are.

It is, and at least as functional. Used all of them for reamping when I worked for a recording studio. All worked fine. I did not became the fan of the mini JCM though.

Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

it's for my bedroom and my sound card
i have played with a ht1r in a shop and the gain was very high gain and i like it
even if this amp has bad clean tones

the 8" speaker is not good at all for a guitar solo but it is really amazing for a guitar rhythm player

but the dsl and jvm 1 have a 8" speaker too so ?

about the ht1r : have you played with the blackstar ht dual and this amp too?

I WANT a 10"

have you tried a ht dual +pod farm 2+sound card or ht1r + sound card +pod farm 2 .?

i know there are 2 models with Celestion and not with Celestion
yes, i though the ht1r would be great but no
even with a LP trad, it won't be good enough with the original speaker
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

I believe that kramersteen has a Blackstar HT-1 in his guitar workshop.

I have a HT-5 mini stack, purchased pre-owned. I agree with the comments about the need for a better loudspeaker than the stock MIC apology for a Celestion. For what it is worth, I upgraded my HT-5 with an Eminence Legend.
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

I don't know anything about the amps you mentioned, but the blackstar ht5rh is a monster.

Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

i don't want a ht 5 for a bedroom

i liked the distortion with the ht1r but the speaker is not good enough for a good guitar solo
so, it will be with a blackstar cabinet but it is a 12" and i wanted a 10 " but ok
i can try

i really don't know if this amp is just for for rhythm player or not
because i like lyric and blues guitar tones: Gary Moore, Satriani sometimes
and i am not sure the sound is really good for that except there is a lot of gain

if they had built a ht1 with 10" or 12" speaker it would have been easy to buy it

or i can use it just for fun because i have the Marshall sl5
a dream : the ht 1r + the vintage 30

I definitely recommend a head over a combo. And I think the difference between an HT-1 and HT-5 will be pretty minimal at bedroom levels.
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

My Cornell Romany Plus is switchable between 10, 2, 1/4 and 1/8 watts RMS. The differences in sound pressure level are not nearly as great as you might imagine.
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

i will never buy another amp with 5 to 1w
i h ave the sl 5
first, i don't like the sound : not enough gain to have fun with it
second, 1w= all the dynamic and trebles are lost


you recommend the ht 1 with the blackstar 12"? or another ?

i would like the perfect head +foostswith with 2 or 3 channels for a bedroom =))
in my shop, there were the ht 1
vox 4w (very loud)

dsl 5c
BUGUERA
evh head
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

Oh yeah i do like mine. But it's about 100x better when driving my quadbox.

Good, simple, cheap and fun.

The gain can be a bit muddy on some guitars. So Sometimes i put the maxon in front of it. I have tried it with a few effects pedals too and it was perfect for that.
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

The stock valves in budget Blackstar amps are nothing special. New ones from a reliable source will be a worthwhile investment.
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

You appear to have just rendered your own thread pointless.

and why ?
it's not because you can not understand you must say (like always) to the other he says bull****s

i don't want a 5w amp because it's too loud

i want a 1w amp but with a good speaker 10" or 12"
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

my question is to know if the jcm1 jvm 1 or dsl1 is better than the ht 1
because i have played with the ht1 and i don't like the speaker
 
Re: blackstar ht 1 vs Marshall

Sorry. I cannot understand you because I only speak and read Standard English. You can probably not understand what I write for this same reason.

The only person who has referred to bull in this thread is you.
