Members NeonVomit Posted May 23, 2005 Members Posted May 23, 2005 I never understood all this 'class' stuff when it came to amps. Anyone care to explain?
Members j powell Posted May 23, 2005 Members Posted May 23, 2005 500 w into 2 ohms? into one 10"? holy crap, the speaker must be made of old black boxes from airplanes!
Members Jazz Ad Posted May 23, 2005 Author Members Posted May 23, 2005 250 W into the internal speaker.
Members Jazz Ad Posted May 23, 2005 Author Members Posted May 23, 2005 class a: grid bias and alternating grid voltages such that plate currentflows continuously throughout the electrical cycle. class ab: grid bias and alternating grid voltages such that plate currentflows appreciably more than half but less than entire electrical cycle. class b: grid bias close to cutoff such that plate current flows only duringapproximately half of the electrical cycle. class c: grid bias appreciably greater than cutoff so that plate current flowsfor appreciably less than half of the electrical cycle. class d:- Analog-controlled : Switching amplifiers with an analog input signal and an analog control system. Normally some degree of feedback error correction is present.- Digitally controlled : Amplifiers with a digitally generated control that switches a power stage.

Okay, I'm going to sound really stupid now, but can you please translate that into English?

Members NEWBOLD Posted January 28, 2010 Members Posted January 28, 2010 I love mine. After a few years of tone searching I'm hard pressed to want much more. Though I haven't played through a TC Electronic RH450/Staccato, they're the only amps that are as full featured and flexible as this rig. Sadly discontinued and under purchased, the 110 extension cabs compete with the best of 'em and you can lock 2 together for a crossed over true bi-amped rig. It's really done me well and pumps loads of juice with an 8 ohm cab and even more through 4. The parallel FX loop isn't my thing, and I'm not a fan of some of the sounds I've heard through the headphone out, but to be fair if the only thing that is really giving me GAS is the Mesa Walkabout, TC Staccato/RH450, Phil Jones Six-Pack, AI, EA, or TecAmp, then Yamaha certainly have a hit.
Members fretless Posted January 28, 2010 Members Posted January 28, 2010 wow almost vintage , I know guys flip over those 1x10's if you can find'em
