Members jr_vw2 Posted December 17, 2010 Members Share Posted December 17, 2010 What's out there that is better or just as good as the 5150 in about the same price range. Playing metal (unearth type stuff) I already have a 5150 I like it but looking to add to the collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sahlomonic Posted December 17, 2010 Members Share Posted December 17, 2010 DSL and Single Rec possibly. XXX would be another good one. For slightly less gain applications, Jet City 50/100/HDM, Blackstar HT100, or Bogner Alchemist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing metal (unearth type stuff) I already have a 5150 I like it but looking to add to the collection. I am selling a Peavey Ultra Plus for $450 shipped. That is an awesome metal amp, just as good as the 5150 (different voicing , but not lower quality by any means) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members grunge782 Posted December 17, 2010 Members Share Posted December 17, 2010 I actually can get some pretty heavy metal tones out of my YCS50h . For under a grand and if you looked used there are some options. Single/Dual Recto Peavey Triumph/XXX/Ultra Blackstar HT 20/100 Bugera 6262/333xl (flame if you want, people can get some good tones out of them) Engl Fireball 60 Sometimes VHT deliverances are under a grand used.. There is also that deliverance based el34 amp Skaaks is selling. http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?2624247-FS-VHT-Deliverance-Inspired-Custom-Amp-w-Extras Edit: Also check out the Laney VH100R and some of the Rivera stuff (used).

Members madrigal77 Posted December 17, 2010 Members Share Posted December 17, 2010 I'd still say a 5150 blows any amp even under a grand out of the water for metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also that deliverance based el34 amp Zach (Titan amps) is selling. If it is anything like the quality of his Titan amps, then that is a pretty good price- http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?2624247-FS-VHT-Deliverance-Inspired-Custom-Amp-w-Extras Edit: Also check out the Laney VH100R and some of the Rivera stuff (used). I don't think that is Zach. Skaaks is a trustworthy dude though. Bought my Sig: X from him. Don't recall his name being Zach on the money order though.

Members gt_jumper Posted December 17, 2010 Members Share Posted December 17, 2010 Blackstar HT-100.......better cleans, 3 channels ect classic 50.............Better cleans, reverb (personal fave) I seriously cannot understand why everyone loves the 6505, its a wollowy yet, buzzy sounding mess. And i dont give a {censored} if it cuts better then most amps, its crap when you are trying to get 2 amps to mix and the 6505 sounds {censored}ty coz you have scooped it out too much to get it to sit with some dickheads spider 75 watter....
