The racktifiers have always blown me away. AFI and From Autumn to Ashes still use theirs. I think they should reissue them.

If i had the scratch, I would own one in a minute.



1. Ractifiers

2. Blackface 2 channels

3. Roadking

4. Three channel.


no experience with the roadsters just yet.

 

 

 

Dude! I play in If Truth Is Dead, you guys played the St. Cloud Metalfest right?

From what I have played, the Roadster takes it. Followed closely by the Roadking, and then the Tremoverb. After that, I like the sound of the Duals (2 or 3 channel).


The triple is my least favorite. It always has just sounded like a pile of mud at any volume.



Makes me proud to own the Roadster pictured:

The cab is mine too. The Dual Recto Solo is a friend's. The mic is rented.:thu:

...and yes, I agree the Roadster sounds superior to the other Rectos I've tested it against (which were dual and triple 3 channels).

Now this makes me want to try some of the other versions against my Triple. I get some great tones from it, so if the others sound BETTER, then I don't know what I would do lol.
