Ok scratch that then lol....Next step I'd take is check your fx loop levels. Are they turned down? Tried turning them up? Check all the tubes as well. Try swapping them out one at a time with a known good tube. Check all cables including the speaker cable...grab the cables and flex them with...

Keep your channel levels around 10 o'clock or so and use your master vOlume to get up to stage volume....I was doing that with my V2 and that thing was stupidly loud...PA loud.

My vote goes for either EH 12ax7s or if you want to splurge a little ectra cash, my V2 sounded its absolute BEST with a Groove Tubes Marshall High gain kit along with an EH 12AT7 in the power driver stage. You should get those JJs out of there anyways..they really squash some killer tone you...

I have sold EVERY JJ I have ever came into contact with....I find them dull and flat sounding....which some people may like.....I don't. I really like SED tubes, EH tubes and TAD. The TAD 6l6's I have in my Triple are monsters....i really want to try their EL34B's in my recto, too.

No problem dude....it's not very often I get to put my electronics tech ejumicashun to good use lol. Report on any findings. I would also open up the footswitch and have a look in there, too.

sounds to me like a cold solder joint maybe somewhere.....the longer the amp is on and it heats up causing metals to expand then making contact somewhere causing the amp to function properly. You could take the chassis out of the shell and just physically look for loose/broken connections...

This may not be what you wanna hear but you can still get the sovtek EL34's....you ust have to buy them from mesa at twice the price. They are by far the best sounding EL34's I've used. I have a sextet for my triple recto along with a sextet of EH EL34. the EH are alot darker than the...

Who did you buy it off of......i got a fried V2 off ebay from a guy in Maryland last year in november. lol. I'd contact randall...those guys are super helpful. RD/Rich was really helpful to me on here as well, he's a stand-up guy.

LMAO!!!!! No No No!!! I meant "Baddest" as in totally sick....totally killer and generally friggin AWESOME! hehe

I do love me some Arch Enemy. I have been a BIG Amott fan since his first album he did with Carcass (Necrotisism.....something or other lol) I have (unintentionally) had pretty much a copy f 2 of his rigs. I have had The 5150 and the V2 rigs. I also have his Signature Ninja V that my wife bought...

Heard it from the man himself, his and Nick's chorus pedals are on 24/7. They never shut them off. It is just set for a VERY minimal effect. You gotta have chorus to get his sound, it's a must. And when you hear him using a heavy chorus type effect it is his Rotovibe turned on. His marshall...

JJ's are dull and lifeless......I put EH hi gain tested tubes in mine and it raped. JJ's are x-mas lights....or targets at best. Yank em asap, you'll thank yourself.

I would like to know, too. I just bought one of these and use it with my Triple Rec and IT FVCKING SLAMS!!!!!!!!

Michael's live rig doesn't have a singe V2 in it.....he's using MTS's with a blackface for cleans, an Ultra XL for his rythm and another Ultra XL set hotter for his leads. He does use his custom Ninja cabs with the silver tolex and red lettering.

H&K Redbox has AWESOME cab emulation. Good enough that my buddy doesn't use a cab. He runs his head with a powerbrake, Redbox to the pa and that is it. Killer sound. Might look in to that option. You don't need a power brake either, just hook up your cab like normal, run the other speaker out to...

They basically are the same. It depends on what you want, really. I have heard that there is some differences in the preamps from the original V2, not just the Ruby Tubes. The Ninja and Archetype are supposed to be brighter and have a touch more gain. I had a V2 original and I couldn't get the...

Does anyone know the individual impedence ratings of the speakers in this cab? I see on the eminence sight that their 15" legend is 8 ohms but that makes no sense to me. From my electronics background, the only way you'd be able to get a 8 ohm cab using 3 speakers would be to use a 16 ohm 15"...

BS.....i had a brand new one shipped to me right after namm....they actually had to make the one I was waiting on and the circuit boards were on back order. My 2008 V2 had the same 300/200 watt rating.

My v2 had that problem that it was unusable at ANY volume. They pretty much put a new power amp and transformer in it.

Running both sides in stereo won't be any louder than if you used the 4 ohm mono input....because it would still only be 4 ohms. Unfortunately if you want to keep up with a 100watt tube amp you either need more speakers, a higher wattage amp, or he needs to turn it down. I would opt for another...
