    Module phasing - can anybody confirm / deny ?

    Have been working on a stereo modular rig and noticed I was getting some strange phasing when running certain modules in parallel... that prompted me to fire up Sonar and do a little "science project". Basically I recorded a dry guitar track into Sonar then re-amped it into every module...

    Quick question... is it safe to use KT66, KT77, KT88 tubes in Egnater modular amps (particularly a MOD50)? If so, anybody know what the bias range should be? Thanks! --B

    Troubleshooting noisy VX module

    Looking for ideas... my VX module makes scratchy noises, but only when the bright switch is in the "1" or "2" position. Tried swapping tubes and it didn't help. Any thoughts? --B

    Egnater MOD100 channel switching issue

    While setting up for band practice tonight, I noticed the channel switching on my MOD100 was out of whack. First, the amp stopped responding to the MIDI footswitch. I tried an alternate controller & MIDI cable with no success. Then when using the channel select button on the front of the amp...

    Using TungSol 5881's in a MOD50/100?

    Anybody here using TungSol 5881's in a MOD100? Was wondering if they were considered "safe", since there's a disclaimer on the Tube Store's site saying that they shouldn't be used in amps with a plate voltage greater than 400v. Not knowing what the MOD100's plate voltage is, didn't know if I'd...

    So how much difference is there between the EG5 and MHG?

    I guess the subject line says it all... how different are the Egnater MHG and EG5 modules? Or put another way, if already own one, is it worth picking up the other? --B

    Difference between Egnater JTM & B'Man modules?

    Just curious, if anybody here's owned the older Egnater JTM module as well as the B'Man module, how do the two compare? I saw a JTM for sale and thought about picking it up, then started second-guessing myself that it may be 95% the same as the B'Man (I mean, historically, wasn't a JTM45...

    Egnater grille cloth

    Quick question... does anybody know the supplier for the checkerboard grille cloth on the black & tan Egnaters (e.g., MOD100)? Would like to replace the grille cloth on my current cab (Randall R212C) to match. Thanks! --B

    Plate voltage for Egnater JTM45 (seminar) head ?

    Quick question for some of the local Egnater junkies... I built one of the amp seminar heads a few years ago and need to replace the power tubes. Anybody know what the plate voltage for the hot-rodded JTM45 is? Thanks, --B

    Rebel vs. JTM45 seminar head - different enough to own both?

    Simple question, maybe... :) I've still got my original seminar head (which has served me incredibly well in the studio during the past month) and have been looking for another relatively simple amp to use in the studio that would contrast nicely with the JTM45. So obviously, the Rebel was one...

    How much gear is too much? ...

    Would you... trade an MHG for an EG5?

    Semi-philosophical, semi-practical question here... for those of you who have had both an MHG and EG5, would you give up your MHG for an EG5? or said another way, once you have the EG5, would you ever go back to the MHG? Two reasons I ask... 1) seems like everybody on the forum is obsessed (in...

    Where to order Egnater-style knobs ?

    Quick Q... I have an M4, an RM50 Palomino, and several dual-channel modules that have cream knobs on them, and one old single-channel module with black knobs. Anybody know where I could order a set of cream knobs for the single-channel module? Thanks, --B

    What ever happened to the Egnater JTM module?

    Guess the subject line is pretty self-explanatory... the JTM existed as a single-channel module, never made it to dual-channel. Any hunches as to why? Anybody still own/use one of 'em? Wonder if it'd be possible to get a new JTM module, now that Bruce & crew are selling single channel modules...

    MHG vs. EG5 - anybody done a direct comparison??

    Here's my dilemma... I absolutely LOVE the tone of the MHG... it's fat, warm, gainy, aggressive... all the things I like. However, when we have band practice and I whip out the MHG, I swear I immediately disappear from the mix. I've tried different EQ settings w/o success. I know I'm not the...

    Switchin' it up...

    Time for my almost monthly "these amps kick a$$" post... I have short-attention span from a gear standpoint, and tend to turn guitars, amps, effects, etc. around pretty frequently. The Egnater gear is perfect for me... I'd been using the Vox and COD in my RM50 and T/D, SL, E-RECT, and EG3/4 in...

    Recommend me some power tubes to play with! :)

    I've been messing around the the Egnater & Randall modular amps now for a couple of years and haven't ventured beyond the more common 6L6's and EL34's. So I earned a little cash for a studio project this weekend and was thinking about buying a few sets of tubes I can experiment with. Maybe...
