Members voneville Posted May 1, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 I did it. I don't buy new stuff too often, but hell, if I hate it I can return it or re-sell it pretty easy I'm sure. It can't be any worse then my Peavey Classic (circa 1982 hombre, not the chingon Classic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jrkirkish Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 Awesome. I asked for one for my birthday, on the 9th and it wasn't in stock when they ordered it. Now it seems I will be getting it on the 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members walfordr Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 Originally posted by burnnickel any brits know when they are in UK, or any US dealers who ship to europe? Not yet AFAIK. Not worth getting one shipped from the US either unless you already have a step down transformer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rocknrao Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 I've been reading that the head is different from the combo in the sense that some kind of "DC filament" issue has been resolved in the head version, but not in the combo version. Anyone else have any experience with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else have any experience with this? There was a bad 60-cycle hum in the earlier versions of the combo. Supposedly, the ones made from 12/05 on have corrected this issue.

Anyone else have any experience with this? I can confirm - road tested a new combo a couple weeks ago and it was quiet - no hum or his I mean. Damn little thing is actually quite loud!

Members Ronzo II Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 Originally posted by GAS Man Yeah! I've been looking at these due to all the "press" here on H.C. And I don't understand this "DC filament" reference. Tubes require filaments inside them to be heated, so that electrons can be freely released. The heater circuit in the VJ Head and the newer version VJ Combo amps has that heater circuit go thrugh a diode bridge rectifier that converts the AC power the transformer in the amp provides to power the heater filaments to DC. This eliminates a source of AC powerline hum, making the amp quieter. Originally posted by GAS Man Is it or is it not a tube amp? And if so, what kind of tubes does it have. Yes, it is a tube amp. It has one 12AX7 preamp tube and one EL84 power tube in a class A configuration. Originally posted by GAS Man Totally Please splain it to me. Hope that helps.

Members GAS Man Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 Yes, thanks I did understand that tubes had filaments, but I couldn't exactly figure out what this Epi head contained. I never could find any reference to its tubes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
