That was a pretty lacking demo really, he didn't really play well, he demonstrated one sound and he only showed one of the amps. I'll wait until I hear more, at least the clean channel, before passing judgement.

The website looked very metal. I don't get how valve amps can be used for metal.Sloan wrote:apparently they're supposed to be like Peavey 5150 and JSX series amps. fer metalz.

Uhm.. a large amount of preamp stage distortion?Malik wrote: I don't get how valve amps can be used for metal.
The sample on the video sounded kinda phased weirdly or something..

Not literally, I mean I don't get how metal guitarist are allowed to use valve amps. Such a waste.Doog wrote:Uhm.. a large amount of preamp stage distortion?Malik wrote: I don't get how valve amps can be used for metal.

What are you getting at?
Loads of preamp valves get you into Metal town. There's nothing wrong with other styles of music just because you don't like them.

Yeah, but valves are often associated with beautiful clean tones, 99.9% of metal guitarists hardly ever use clean tones. Seems a waste having tubes in there if their tone is being weighed down with loadsa metal tonez.Mike wrote:What are you getting at?

Behringers are usually really cheap, will be interesting to see how much these go for.

What rubbish you talk sometimes.
Valves associated with Clean tone? I think you'd have an argument on your hands there - whilst they do sound lovely clean most solid-state amplifiers do also, it's being overdriven in the pre or power amp that gives valves their lure. So in that case metal players get the very best from their valve amps.

"that's about all you got"
cracked me up.
I wouldn't trust the guy giving the review. There's no doubt in my mind that they're nothing special, but I'd try one out or hear it in person before giving final judgement based on that video.

I don't get it, they're releasing four new amps, apparently all specifically designed to deliver a specific tone, and yet he plugs into one amp, plays some weird bendies on one setting and calls it a day. How versatile!Nick wrote:"that's about all you got"

I wouldn't try to judge much from that video. Dude was obviously strapped for time or something and didn't really show it off too much, besides in-camera audio sux balzz.

About every well-produced metal album you will hear is using high gain t00b tonez.

Mesa dual and triple rectifiers
Marshall JCM800 etc...
ALL high gain tube amps. All cumming blood heavey tonez.

KRANK amps are absolute dogshit. They were banned for a while from Harmony Central because KRANK employees were giving themselves good reviews.

Well that alone speaks volumes about their quality, although i must admit ive never heard of them.

I already disclaimed the fact it's an audio/video clip from a cam. Personally if I was bulgera I wouldn't have sanctioned it's use.Mike wrote:I know it's only a clip but god DAMN.

I wouldn't totally condemn them yet. I wanna hear 'em cranked and with less bends, more playing.
