But in all honesty, I have the head version of a DC-5 and it is EXTREMELY versatile. Great cleans, dirt, crunch, and has a great sound for metal I found too when using a little boost.

From what I know, it gives the highs, mids and lows a chance to evenly distribute.

HOLY CRAP!!!
I just tried this and it made a world of difference. I used a Mesa DC-5 into a Marshall 1960A, I thought my speakers were sounding kind of harsh too(G12T75's). Here were my setting before turning my cab to the wall. I play metal.
Gain: 10(Not very sensitive, have to turn up for it to get heavy)
Treble: 3
Mid: 9
Bass:7
Presence:8
Reverb: 3
Output:3
EQ: V Shape with lowered high eq's
After:
Gain:6
Treble:6
Mid:9
Bass:4
Presence:4
Reverb:0
Output: 4
EQ: Balanced V Shape
Settings changed drastically. It sounds 100 times better with it turned to the wall.
Thanks kjr44130 !!!!
