I have a RM50 combo and a RM100 head. I have owned 2 RM50 combo's in the recent past and noticed that the RM100 head seems to be a good bit brighter/clearer than the RM50's.
I have heard some say that they like the RM50 power section better because it sounds "sweeter" than the 100 but I am finding that I like the 100 better because I can use more of the tone controls on the modules before I get mud in the low end. I need to spend more time with each but that was my initial observation running them through the same TM2X12.
I have used 6550's, EL34's, and 6L6's in the combos but have only used the 6L6's that came with the RM100 so far. They look old too so maybe they are just at the end of their life and lack bottom end on their own. I plan on dropping in a set of 6550's and newer 6L6's this week to compare.
Anyone else notice a difference between the two power sections?
