Is it RM100/M100? RM50? RM4 w/ X PowerAmp? Something else?
For me, I lean toward the RM100 with mixed power tubes...

Jacksauce said:For the RM100 comments, it that stock or are we talking patch cable in the fx loop, with a MDA/Foglifter and a Mercury Magnetics transformer?

OK, I'll say that fx loop patched, MDA, and KT77s mixed with 6CA7s...
The Mercuries did little for me when I had them to be honest....I'd be curious to try others as it was a slight improvement, just not near the cost to me...

For me, the ticket is; 5751 tube in the PI slot (JAN GE for me), tung sol 12AX7 in the input tube slot, jumpered parallel loop w/level at about 2 o'clock, 2xMesa 6L6's (I think relabeled JJ's?), and 2x SED Winged C EL34's. And, JJ 12AX7's in all of the mods. I love it!
BTW - What's the big deal with the VHT power amps? Can someone explain what it is about them that y'all dig so much? I mean, I've never been impressed at all by VHT/Freyette amps (sound like fizzy messes to me). So, just curious why all the love?

Since I now own that amp, gotta say they are not much of a difference with the stock RM100LB....now the Salvation MDA board on the other hand \m/ :twisted: \m/
I'm still running the 6CA7s in it with the Parallel Loop Patch.
