Re: Love.....
Here's the best description I've found;
No mark or a little dot
- Only a few hundred then some balck marks or "+"'s .
- Lean and powerful amp with more output power than a IIC+
Purple Stripe
- R1 - No change
- R2 - was shaped to be more "rounded" and less gain, with improved level
- LD - No change
Red Stripe
- R1 - No Change
- R2 - Further developed and very hot.
- LD - Tweaked to close in on the IIC+ sound
Blue Stripe
- R1 - Reshaped....not sure how, but I'm guessing it was to compensate for the new gain structure.
- R1, R2, and LD - more aggressive preamp gain
- Power section - made more similar to MkIIC+
Green Stripe (final MkIII version)
- R1 - Made cleaner and reshaped
- R2 - No Change
- LD - Reshaped
- Power Section - unlike other Simul amps, these Mark III's were wired in Pentode - NOT triode in the Class A sockets for more power. Power section is same as Blue otherwise.
The black, purple and red stripes are generally considered the most raw sounding, with the red stripe being the most aggressive. The blue stripe is where they started to refine and smooth out the sound to the point of the green stripe, which essentially sounds the same as an early MkIV.
