Yeah it was a short honeymoon...this is actually the second M4 that I've owned and its truly a great preamp...I find that I just prefer my Soldano X99 preamp...different stroke for different folks.

FS: Egnater M4, Randall RT2/50 This M4 is the dual channel model and is about a year old (sn: 06090703) and in minty condition. The modules are: SL (plexi), SL2 (hot rod plexi), DLX (Fender), & MHG (Modern High Gain - Bogner-ish). I'm looking for $1825 on the preamp and that price inlcudes...

I bought mine used and it has EH 12AX7's in all 3 spots...I've always found the EH 12AX7's to be really high gain and not to my tastes at all. I've always preferred the 12AX7-C chinese preamp tubes...they seem to have a lot of top end sparkle and low gain...perhaps I'll give'm a go.

The Randall RT2/50 has three 12AX7's....what are they for and what type of 12AX7's should I use in those 3 positions to get things quiet and have a lot of clean headroom?

If you've got an Egnater MOD50 that you're thinking about selling, drop me a line.

SOLD A few months ago I bought both the VHT 2/50/2 and the 2/90/2. My goal was to A/B them and keep the one that I considered to be the best match for my M4. To my ear the 2/50/2 was more musical and more versatile with the class A or A/B switch...but both amps are awesome...IMO, VHT makes the...

sold pending payment...extra module sold with unit.

Thanks Scooter. BTW, the 5 modules that I have are: SL SL2 Bassman EG3/4 E-Rect

SOLD PENDING PAYMENT Here's a like new/mint condition M4 that is approx 6 months old. No rack rash, no scratches, very gently used in my non-smoking, no pets home. I bought it new from Bruce and Frank along with 4 dual channel modules. Since my purchase, I've collected another dual channel...

I agree with Spiderfingers that V30's sound best with the modular equipment. Over the past few months I've been A/Bing V30's, Greenbacks (G12M) 25 watters, G12T-75's, Heritage G12H30's and the Marshall Vintage speakers...to my ear, the V30's sound best with this cab. I dont care for the V30...

I've got 2 dual channel modules that I just dont use and I like to trade. I've got an Egnater E-Rect and a EG3/4...they are both mint condition, only a few months old and have less than 2 hours use on them. I'm looking for dual channel SL+ and an SL modules for trade.

According to the Randall Website, the XL cabs are the professional line of cabs and made with 11 ply...the MTS are for the modular stuff and made with the cheaper 7 ply ...my Randall rep told me that the top of the line cabs are the XL cabs. Why no love for Marshal? Their cabs find themselves...

I dont have a MOD50, but for EL34 tubes, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Ruby tubes EL34BSTR...very complex mids, sparkly highs and a really big low end (this a big bottle tube that gives more lows)...very snappy, crunchy tube...I just think it sounds awesome in every amp I've ever tried. FWIW, I find...

I own a Randall RS412XLT and a Marshall 1960BV, and a Marshall 1960 BHW...I used to own a GB G-Flex and 2 Ear Candy Buzz Bombs. The 2x12 cabs just flat cant hold a candle to the 4x12's...they sound like your playing in a sewer tube or something. IMO, 2x12's are a joke for rock music...4x12...

Abomb, I'm in an ACDC tribute band...I just think the EL34 based 2/50/2 gets a lot closer to an authentic plexi tone with the SL module than the 2/90/2...I agree that I think the 2/90/2 for heavy metal or progressive modern rock would be a good fit...still, the EL34's are great...a lot of hard...
