Members GladheAteher Posted October 16, 2007 Members Share Posted October 16, 2007 Technically a hybrid has a FULL preamp or poweramp section which the AVT and Valvestates don't have. One tube does not constitute a hybrid (ask the guys at Marshall...I did) "We do not manufacture hybrid amplifiers at this time." -marshall help. Not to mention they don't advertise it as a hybrid and that word doesn't appear once on the amps description on marshallamps.com. Yet everyone refers to them as hybrids. Makes you wonder, is this ONE tube squeezing out genuine tube tone (what takes its big brothers 4 tubes to accomplish), or is this a glorified overpriced solid state? :poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Pr3Va1L Posted October 17, 2007 Members Share Posted October 17, 2007 Valvestates suck, that's it. A tube won't save a bad amp... Except with kiddies who don't know nothing else than what the salesman tells them (which is the amp's target audience...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JamesPeters Posted October 17, 2007 Members Share Posted October 17, 2007 I like how Marshall suddenly gets to dictate what a hybrid is. As though they invented the term and govern its use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fistacuffs Posted October 17, 2007 Members Share Posted October 17, 2007 good you are on the ball but the valvestate 8100 is the best head out there for $200 hybrid or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
