    Is there something wrong with my XTC module?

    probably about 12 o clock on the mod and maybe 10-11 on the master. I also didnt mention that there is a slight crackling sound.. sort of sounds like bacon frying or something :D its not audible on the clean but you can hear it on the plexi and much more so on the XTC... If you look at the...

    Is there something wrong with my XTC module?

    well.. I swapped out the tubes in the XTC and even the ones in the main part of the amp V1, V4 and V5 I guess they are called... Maybe its the way I'm setting it up? Bright on, mids at 10 o clock Bass and Treble at about 3 Gain at 2-3 and Presences and Density maxed... I think perhaps I...

    Is there something wrong with my XTC module?

    its the only high gain module I have.. I just got the amp a few days ago.. Its used and at one point it took a fall hard enough to crack the cabinet and dent the power transformer! but I got a great deal and tubes are expendable :) I'll try some more preamp tubes and see what happens. So...

    Is there something wrong with my XTC module?

    I'm getting really bad feedback.. My XTC module squeals like a pig if I give it the slightest bit of gain.. 9' o' clock is about all I dare to give it otherwise its feedback city. Of course, it really has no balls with gain set that low :( Does this think have THAT much gain? this just doesnt...

    Fan Mod?

    lol.. that I would like to see :)

    Fan Mod?

    yeah.. I should've read the model# off the stock fan to see if I can find the specs.. It looked like a pretty basic fan and it wasnt exactly quiet. I guess it depends on the music you play.. If you have your amp cranked to 11 and rock out heavy metal then I guess you wouldnt mind an 80 cfm fan...

    Fan Mod?

    I can now confirm that the fan in the Rm100 and probably every other RM amp is an 12volt 80mm case fan like you have inside your PC. you can get them from Newegg for about $1.99. You can get them will Red, White or Blue LEDs in case the tube glow isnt enough for you :)

    Fan Mod?

    I dont have my RM100 to look at yet but I couldnt imagine it would be too difficult to change out the fan. Its probably a standard 12volt PC fan. I've had several crap out in PC power supplies and instead of replacing the PSU I just replaced the fan. In fact, I about to have to do it again...

    How similar are these module to each other? (layouts, etc)

    I've noticed after reading many threads about doing mods on the preamp that many of them are almost identical. That is, if the schematics are as similar as the layouts. One thing I found facinating and somewhat hard to believe was how some modules were nearly identical except for a few tiny...

    Questions about the Randall RM100

    what I'd really like to see is a mod that make the RM100 50 watts by switching between two duets. so you could switch from say, 6L6s to EL34s like the RM2/50. You could tie it all to the channel switching with relays so when a module was activated it could switch to the appropriate duet. I...

    Questions about the Randall RM100

    its official! I just bought an RM100M :) havent got it yet but it was only $785 with Clean, Plexi and XTC modules! :) I really cant believe how cheap these things are going for on ebay now! Even the RM4 RT2/50 setup.. which I'll probably want after I get the RM100 :D so why are they selling...

    Got my RM100...it sucks so bad!!!!

    Its true that you really have to take some time to get the feel of any amp. I originally HATED my Mesa Dual Rectifier when I bought it used. I was playing through a Marshall valvestate cabinet w/ celestion G12L-35 speakers and the amp had a quad of EH EL34s in it. I'm not even sure if they...

    Questions about the Randall RM100

    what kind of tubes are you using? KT88s? Im content with 6L6s now but I figure the marshall modules might not sound right without EL34s..

    Questions about the Randall RM100

    thanks ned! that's exactly what I was looking for! As far as mixing EL34s and 6l6s is there really an advantage? will it make the amp more versatile or just create an in between sound that sucks? :) I've only ever used 6l6s in my Recto and I think that's what I prefer anyways. I've been...

    Questions about the Randall RM100

    hey everybody.. I'm very new to all this MTS stuff (never even played one) but it's got me very interested! I have a few questions though: Can you run the RM100 in 50-watt mode? In my dual recto I just pull out a pair of tubes and it runs fine. I just half to set the impedence to half of...
