Members sunburstbasser Posted January 6, 2007 Members Share Posted January 6, 2007 Rabbits pose the problem of getting more rabbits than you need. It is more important with rabbits than any other creature to make sure they are matched-male/male or female/female. A male/female amp will either sound tired or have loose hares, robbing you of rabbit wattage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they'd generate more bunnies making more power per side as well, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop spreading misinformation. Stop putting words in my mouth and quit sniveling. You're making the real Ox look bad, may he forever rest in peace.

Members pbass_groovin Posted January 6, 2007 Members Share Posted January 6, 2007 you just have to weigh the advantages/disadvantages of each type of amp to your specific needs also not all solid states sound the same...some sound more tubey than others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fealach Posted January 6, 2007 Members Share Posted January 6, 2007 The real Ox got some killer tone out of both tube and solid state amps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members der oxenrig Posted January 6, 2007 Members Share Posted January 6, 2007 Originally posted by fealach The real Ox got some killer tone out of both tube and solid state amps. As can I. He also got some of the worst bass tones ever towards the end of his life. But the tubes still sounded better in both cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members way2fat Posted January 6, 2007 Members Share Posted January 6, 2007 Originally posted by REMUS Well stop being silly then? I don't think my opinion was silly, it just isn't your opinion. Personally, I suspect that tubes not sounding as tight way down low (as opposed to lo-mids) at high volume may have something to do with the fridge being a sealed cab design.

That is an amp flaw, not a flaw of tube amps in general. It has to do with damping, which can be fixed on tube amps (and solid state amps, too).

I don't think a prerequisite of using a tube amp is that fridge cab. I hate 'em personally... but I loves my toobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FreestyleIntruder Posted January 6, 2007 Members Share Posted January 6, 2007 Originally posted by sunburstbasser If you want a more organic tone, you need gerbils on wheels to power your amp. Much more "live" sounding than SS/Tube amps. Yeah, but they have to be vintage. After about '68-'69 they started making the gerbils in Korea, and they just don't sound the same (most of the best gerbils go to San Francisco anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that tube designs haven't been sitting still since the 70's, I just haven't heard anything that would make it worth (to me anyway) the extra expense and weight.
