the_man361 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 my first amp was a valvestate. i still dont think theyre that bad for the money, i had the 30 watt one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst thing I could of bought considering an all valve amp with the Marshall name on it was only £50 more. I bought it because it was a 4x12 plus head deal, thinking it would be extra 1337.

addyjoe Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 but you really need to boost it massively to do that My bass amp does that with my EQ pedal, it can get annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grinning Death Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 that's total bollocks. valve amps distort turned up, down they are clean, simple as. if you want good sounding distortion, then yes, you do need to turn up and no solid states don't sound the same at all volumes and if you're destroying the speaker, that's because you're using a cheap speaker. the main difference between valves and solid state is the type of distortion, if you use a pedal for distortion, you are usually using solid state circuitry. and valve amps aren't fragile and don't have fans. how the fuck are morons allowed to post bollocks? Were you dropped on your head as a child? Deprived of oxygen in the womb? The more you drive a valve amp the better it sounds, I can't remember exactly why, something to do with different harmonics being generated. A solid state amp with the gain set to 4 for ex. everything else neutral SHOULD give the same sound at all volumes. A Valve up with ex. the Volume set to 5 will give a different sound depending on what you have the master set to. Valve amps aren't fragile as such, and some do have fans, they get pretty hot if you play them for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just agreed with him... find an example of a full valve amp with a fan, and you get a cookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ONLY time a 'valve' amp has a fan is if it's valvestate. Which IMHO isn't worth going into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toff Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Surely thered be more point in putting a fan in a valve amp rather than a valvestate? I mean, theres more tubes to make more heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
