    Connecting the SYN-2 preamp to an ENGL SE E670

    That connections allows you to use the Amp's own preamp channels when the SYN2 is on bypass, this is the whole purpose of this setup. I don't know the ENGL head but I would guess you wouldn't need t engage the preamp defeat, you'd only need to engage the FX loop (if it's switchable)...

    Synergy power tubes

    Dave Friedman has a show on you tube, he's stated more than once that EL34's are not reliable, and in one particular episode with Mike Soldano they both agreed on this. I guess he pushed for the SYN5050 to be 6L6 because of this.

    SYN1 + Old Modules Issues

    I have a SYN2 and no Synergy modules, haven't found any issue. The only difference is that the SYN2 makes the mods sound a bit brighter.

    Synergy VS Egnater : cathode switch

    What circuit is the Synergy hardware (rack or amp) using if you don't use Synergy modules? Is there a default setting that the hardware uses if no Synergy modules is used? Does the last Synergy module used in a particular hardware sets the input circuit for all future non-Synergy mods to use...

    Linking SYN-2 and RM4 ?

    I had it connected like this: Guitar > SYN2 (RM4 in lopp) SYN2 "to amp in" connected to RM4 input > RM4 output connected to "from amp fx send" > SYN2 "to amp fx return" connected to Power amp in. Basically treating the RM4 as the preamp section of a head, and treating the power amp as the...

    Linking SYN-2 and RM4 ?

    I just did what you're doing as a test a couple days ago. If you're using MIDI presets 1-4 for the 4 channels in the SYN2, then the unit is not in bypass, therefore you shouldn't be hearing the RM4 at the same time. When the SYN2 is not in bypass so you shouldn't be hearing the RM4 at all. The...

    SYN5050 buzz

    That is exactly my point, you can see on the video that I'm not right up onto the amp, I think I'm at a reasonable distance where that buzz shouldn't be there. I think the SYN5050 buzz is noticeably different, not only louder but there's a "coarser" buzz if you will. It will only go away if I...

    SYN5050 buzz

    I'm getting this loud buzz from the SYN5050 when I stand near it to adjust the controls on the preamps (the buzz starts being loud at 3 feet away). I've noticed this since the first they I got it and inquired to Synergy about the issue, they replied saying that a buzz like this is normal if your...

    Suggestions for racking?

    That looks great!

    Suggestions for racking?

    I have both units in a SKB 4 space rack along with an FX unit. I've always thought the rack power amps need at least 1 free slot above them for ventilation. The high speed fan of the SYN5050 turns on quite a bit so it's obvious that the unit gets hot.

    SYN 5050

    The amp is not dual mono, is only mono bridged. The manual says: (rear panel page) #3. "If selecting MONO, you must connect to Channel A input only..." #10. "When using the amp in the MONO BRIDGE mode, use only the CHANNEL A/MONO input and the CHANNEL A SPEAKER OUTPUTS ... The CHANNEL B...

    Synergy SYN2 or Egnater M4?

    The mods I have sound brighter through the SYN2 than in either an RM4 or M4, could be due to the V1 tube, though I haven't done some tube swap yet. A few mods benefit from the brighter tone, others don't, most don't care. I think the mods sound equally good in either. I don't have any Synergy...
