Re: PRS MT15 or Mesa Mini Rectifier
I looked at both bought the MT 15. HUGE price difference first off.
Both are great amps but that price difference is a major factor.
The little PRS will hang with my 50 watt Mesa DC 5 volume wise it's LOUD tight and will have no issue hanging in a full band situation in anything under a big outdoor or arena show.
The Mesa is easier to control at low volumes but I can get bedroom levels with the MT 15 if I work with it.
Cleans are no contest the PRS has the much better bigger more forgiving cleans.
The Mesa is more versatile in the Crunches with a wider range of tones in particular lower gain tones as the PRS is a real fire breather on gain. I find the PRS much more organic feeling dynamic and touch sensitive of the 2 with a bigger very modern sound. This is likely in part due to the PRS running a pair of 6L6's and the Mesa EL 84's so it's bigger on the bottom and tighter.
