Should have got one of these years ago. Finally found the 210H version used locally.
I love the eq voicing and how settings are still relevant when sharing the eq's between modes.

I basically have 4 settings banked in the footswitch. It works out great. (and I'm not a big channel switcher or footswitch user)
1. Clean green w/ reverb
2. OD green
3. OD orange
4. OD red w/ reverb

The amp is in fair shape, some small defects like a sticky clean/crunch button and a small tolex tear on the front right side.

The gain channels are a bit noisy. So I'll have to test it with some other preamp tubes. Running a Decimator, but some noise still squeaks through. My house wiring is bad though, so I'll see how it sounds today with less electronics being on in the house.

I haven't had any time to open it up and inspect it, so I'll do that Sunday night after getting back from fishing. I'll also need to give it a clean, minor stuff.

Really happy otherwise. The playability and tones are stellar and rival many amps I've played.

Re: NAD

How does it compare to your UL. I chose my 50/cl over the JVM. I don't think I made the wrong choice, just curious how they compare.

Happy NAD!
 
Re: NAD

I have used the JVM a few times at rehearsal and loved its headroom and punch with pedals... I hate 4x12s / half stacks in general but this amp wowed me

Happy NAD
 
Re: NAD

The JVM is smoother than the UL due to the compressed nature of it's gain. The UL is more percussive too. Likely because of it's dry voicing. They both have monster lowend, but the JVM's treble freq's are not as strident as the UL. So I like that.
Need more time to dissect the midrange. Running it through V30's so far....

Re: NAD

it'd be fun to go through them all in one sitting & see which I dig best. I'm guessing I'd end up at the JVM or the soldano as my fave. but then again, the JSX might be a contender too.
