Marshall Origin 50h for Metal tones

Have a DSL40CR, in the ballpark with the DSL100H and sounds killer into a closed back 2x12. For bedroom the secret for me is to roll off the treble and bump the kids, bass and presence, so it still sounds punchy like a Marshall should. At high volume it's a different story :-)
I found it's relatively easy to get a very good tone out of any decent amp if I have a great sounding cab and an EQ in the effects loop.

I’ll have to try those tricks. I’m excited to try the amp out when all the stuff finally gets here :)
 
I remember an Anderson video (a “Sound Like”) after a new version of the DSL40 came out; Rabea was struggling to hold back what he thought of that vs the previous version.

Could have been partially the speaker to blame.
They were t75, then there were some creambacks, and now they've downgraded to 70/80 iirc.

The old DSL40C came with 70/80, 40CR has the V type which, after I put some hours on it, sounds alright. But I'm mostly playing through a 2x12 and it sounds great at all volumes.

I really like mid-powered 112 combos through 212 cabs, plus if you sit the combo on top it puts the knobs at the perfect height.
