My favorite combination so far: Two K100s, on top of, two V30s in a 4x12

That is totally Badass!! Love to hear that someone did this. Nice work! I'm hoping to do the same thing. Tried the Founder's EL-34 at NAMM. I could hear how perfect it would sound with KT77s.

Way cool! My Invader 2 has KT77s. Definitely my favorite power tube. When I get a Founder's Edition, I'm getting the EL34 and biasing it for KT77s. Enjoy!

Nothing holds it's value like a 1960A. And they are work horses. I've had mine since the early 2000s, and it's as tough as ever, and still sounds killer!

Never had this problem. And I am moving in and out two main preset banks all the time. Sounds like a software problem. I'd re-install the 5.04 firmware to start.

Just bought a used Egnater Armageddon, which is the big brother of the Veangeance. The Armageddon sounds great with 6L6s, which come stock. I changed the power tubes to KT77s and it sounds AMAZING!! Really under-rated amp series. I'm loving my Armageddon. Great midi switching too. Go for it!!

Run your Revv G8 in 4 cable method. It works best in 4CM

The fact that you like the tone of the VH2's "CH3" so much, makes me want to get one! I imagine that since the VH2 is a newer design, it got some cool refinements to it, and it translated into an excellent new VH4 CH3/4 tone. Way Cool!

Let me know what you think of the 81-x. I think you're going to really like it!

Try, the EMG 81-x. It has more headroom, and sounds amazing to me. I have them in the bridge position of my main guitars (Ibanez RGD2120Z) I personally feel they make the original 81 obsolete.

Last year, I did a side by side test of my VHX Classic 0 vs my VH4 Ch3 with identical settings, through a Mesa 2x12 w V30s, using an amp switcher so I could make instantaneous switches, and I felt like the VHX Classic 0 nailed the VH4 Ch3 tone. The VHX had a slight bit more body, which I think...

So glad you are demo-ing the Uber Ultra for us!! I love it when you put an amp through it's paces. The Uber Ultra is definitely on my list Keep up the great work, Kyle!!

Congrats! Classy looking amp head! It's going to fit nicely into your awesome amp towers. What cab will you run it through first?

More headroom

The attenuator part is just an attenuator. I use the Mid (-20db) setting during the day/evening, and the Down (-36db) setting at late night/early morning. Let's me play my 100 watt amp heads at comfortable volumes, but with the tube feel.

I love the EMG 81-X in the bridge position of my main Ibanez guitars, through my VH4 and VHX The 81-X makes the regular EMG 81 obsolete IMHO.

I'm sorry, I didn't. The 6L6s have a certain high-end sizzle. The KT77s have a certain mid-congestion. I prefer the mid-congestion. Others prefer the hi-end sizzle. Only your ears, in the room, can decide which is right for you.

I use my VH4 at home thru a Two Notes Captor X Attenuator/Load box into a Marshall 1960A 4x12 to play at lower volumes with tube feel. Works perfect! I can even play late at night 1am, 2am, 3am....

Tube Amp Doctor BiasMaster. I love mine https://www.tubeampdoctor.com/en/biasmaster-system https://www.amazon.com/Bias-Master-TAD-Octal-Probes/dp/B01MSZZ10L

I put 6L6GCs in my VH4 two weeks ago to capture it into my Quad Cortex. I tried 28mA per tube at first, but it didn't sound right to me, so I increased it to 53% at 33mA, and it sounded perfect to me (thru 2x12 K100s, on top of 2x12 V30s). When I switched back to KT77s, I set the Bias at 32mA...
