I'm a big Prog fan and tones like here were what i was looking for with this amp. Think it absolutely is a home run for this type stuff!

Re: NAD MT15 is HERE!
Here is the little beastie on my Blackstar 1/12.
What I happened to be listening to from the newest CD IMO not thier best work. This one is a little better from an earlier album.

That’s good stuff as well. I find prog bands to be a bit more difficult of a listen.
Musically, it’s amazing but there’s something about most prog vocalists that just isn’t my thing. Don’t get me wrong, they are great singers but idk, maybe it’s just not raw enough? It’s the same thing with Dream theatre. Great band, just something with the vocals that isn’t my favorite.
But, I’m loving everything I’ve heard from Pillar so far.

Re: NAD MT15 is HERE!
Different style for sure. Piller kinda reminds me of a Southern cal based band we opened for on a Southeastern tour back in the mid 90's called Precious Death. These guys

To chase a rabbit here you talking raw guttural vocals we also worked with these guys. Dale Thompson freaked me the heck OUT with some of the crazy vocal gymnastics he used to pull off some nights. Always thought Axel was a poor copy of this guy!

I definitely hear that SoCal/POD vibe in Pillar. Almost that RapRock thing. I like what they do a lot.
The other guy absolutely has the Axl Rose thing (only better) going on. I still love GnR though.

Re: NAD MT15 is HERE!
The Mt-15 is a great amp head..I had one new 6 months ago and bought it to try to use as a low volume bedroom amp,and it was almost what I needed..when turning the volume up on the high gain channel barely turning the knob up it went from very quiet to more than I wanted for this amp..I ran it into my stock EVH 2-12" with Celestion Anniversary G12H-30's and it sounded amazing !
My EVH 5150-3 head gets down and dirty at the lowest of volumes so I let the PRS go..I will probably get another one but I purchased a new Archon 25 combo and it does what i need as well.
Anyone looking for a LOUD 15-20 watt all tube head thats nice and light weight the MT-15 will get it done with 2 great channels.

Reverb pedals work really well in the loop of these..also you are right about these,they can get loud when needed.

How does the archon 25 compare to the evh 5150? I have the evh but am curious about the archon 25 as a better alternative?

Re: NAD MT15 is HERE!
I REALLY like the Archon 25 it's got a GREAT clean and the crunch side is very dynamic smooth and big sounding. I prefer it to the 5150 tones myself. I find the PRS much more touch sensitive and dynamic in comparison to the 5150. The voicing is similar.
I looked hard at the Archon 50 head but size weight and cost were major factors so went with the MT 15. I own 2 GREAT 25 watt combos now so was looking for a head. Doing the Modern woship thing many times I run an amp on stage long speaker cable to a miced cab off stage so that was the reason for looking specifically for a small head.

Re: NAD MT15 is HERE!
First off while my MT 15 is a little touchy at the bottom of the master volume I have not had any issue whatsoever getting a GREAT low volume tone with mine.
The more I play with this amp the more I REALLY like it. I had a couple hours today to really play around with it and also to play with the loop. First off this amp is VERY dynamic and really picks up the character of different guitars and different pickup combos. The clips I posted with the ST 300 were very different from the tone I got today with my other guitars.
Example the ST 300 is loaded with Dimarzios a Gravity Storm bridge and a Liquifire neck. Both big fat and compressed Alnico V pickups. Plug in the DC 127 Koa with the sentient and Alt 8 and it's a whole different world. Cuts well incredible dynamics with touch and volume roll off, has explosive harmonics, a super clear top and nice cut but still a very meaty thick full tone. Every guitar I plugged in sounded unique and different.
The cleans are the very best of all my amps very forgiving Fender like and warm. Like the crunch side also picks up the unique character of each guitar pickup combo.
Overall it may be the best sounding amp I own and with a pair of Boogies the Carvin and the Zinky that is saying something.
Can't wait until I can get it out in a full band situation as that will be the real test. Have had amps before that sounded amazing here but didn't cut it when you got them in a full band mix so we shall see.
