Members angus_old Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 that's better. but 0w? wtf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members utterhack Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 Originally posted by onbongos that's better. but 0w? wtf I know! Since there's not much info out there yet, I can only report the news: "Power Sponge 0 to 5 watts" While it lacks the mojo of a Blackface Vibro Champ it could be a REALLY handy little practice/recording tool. I'm definitely intrigued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members donnievaz Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 I think that means that you can attenuate down to 0 watts output while still running the XLR cabinet simulated line out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Roy Brooks Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 I don't think that would make a good replacement for my Vibro Champ. If I get myself another small recording amplifier it will probably be a Swart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I get myself another small recording amplifier it will probably be a Swart. Those are nice. They lack teh XLR-out and built-in attenuation and cost three times as much, but they are HAND BUILT BY MOJO WIZARDS and can be had in an assortment of beautiful finishes, including TWEED While you're deciding, you might also enjoy one of these many fine corks.

Which could be of use to some people, if the recording output is unaffected by the Sponge. I have no idea what circuit approach they took, so I'll just have to wait for NAMM to find out like everybody else. It does look interesting though.

It does look interesting though. i was thinking along the lines of the weber attenuators that can go to 0 and still provide a load, even though theres no signal output. not useless per se, but useless for speaker output purposes ("hey -- i'm playing a 0w amp!").

Members L6Sguy Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 but it doesnt have a hubcap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Verne Andru Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 Certainly an odd little thing, isn't it? 6L6 power section, 6.5" speaker with a closed back cab. Says it has an FX loop but I don't see the jax. Fugly but with the closed back it may actually sound descent. Hubcap's in the trunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's referring to the Ibanez in the thread's title (inser lulz @ clueless on-topic posters). Depending on the size of the cab, the 8" in the Peavey might actually be preferable to a 10". Certainly works for teh Champ. And Phil, I had no idea you were such a size queen :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
