@Techdeth - probably not the best example but knowing you, you probably like Korn and most of their stuff is Recto. Not the tightest most articulate tone ever :lol: but dem low mids bro :yes: This is nothing :lol: You should see the riff wars thread :dunno: RIFF WARZZZZ...

Nice. I knew I shouldn't have opened this OP w/clip. Sorry about the rest - just ignore. :cheers: :cheers2: ...:dunno:

What the what?

Along with some cash :lol:

Did you spray the pins of the tube and work it in and out of the socket? That's the first thing I do when I have an issue, only I'm using a known good tube to find my culprit. Best of luck. My guess, and I have limited experience with the Dark Terror is that that amp with a V30 speaker should...

I feel like I should have something to contribute to this thread but its already all been said :dunno: Edit: but here it goes anyway :lol: Sammy in Montrose = Great Sammy in Red Rocker = Good Sammy in Van Halen = Pick your least worst album Sammy in Chickenfoot = I can't name one song so...

I was strictly talking about how the speakers are treated if they vary in wattage. 2 x the lowest rated speaker (in a 2x12). https://celestion.com/blog/power-handling-all-you-need-to-know/#:~:text=As%20a%20rule%20of%20thumb,%2Dwatt%20%3D%2060%2Dwatt. As a rule of thumb, the cabinet power...

Now that sounds interesting :yes:

No, unfortunately that feels more like a PCB or connection problem. Did you say you have electrical contact cleaner - are you using that? Does this amp have a warranty?

Yes, I would take that V30 loaded Harley Benton over any 8" speaker option. I would take a Dark Terror over the HT. The HT's are not technically bad sounding amps, just hard to work on and prone to issues. I can't see why a FRFR cab wouldn't work with a Quad Cortex. I didn't realize you were in...

Why can't I just read the plate voltage of the Recto and go from there?

This is actually the best concept yet :yes: Make some killer amps and provide some much needed public service. :dunno:

Thanks. Yeah, that was where I was going actually. I can't bias my Rectos like I bias my Splawn. As you know, Mesa has their branded tubes with the ratings matched and put into colors. I don't have that handy but you've seen it. 30mA -34 = x, 35-39 = y, 40 - 44 = z, etc. So as long as I...

Agreed. What I'm saying the girls should have no expectation of privacy as they were generally in public places and signed the waiver etc.

Like Floyd, I mostly grew up with nothing. Lower middle class at best. My parents couldn't afford to buy me a bike, or a trip to Philmont with the Scouts, or even college for that matter. They were too busy getting Masters and Doctorate degrees in Sociology :( So you know what I did? I...

You mean like Girls Gone Wild? Just watched that documentary of the take down or attempted take down of the dude who built that.

@braintheory - NP. I think it is cool that you are routing for Marshall. I gave up on them because they didn't listen and are now too late to the party. Shhhhh keep that to a whisper please.

Is see bro. I saw 4x8 and my brain processed something else. OK, so generally speaking, 8" speakers are not geared for guitar - particularly rock and metal. You need 12" speakers. That will give you the frequency range you need. Yes, that little 4x8 was designed to fit under the smaller HT...

Thanks. Good stuff. I suppose I'd need to go NOS then on the 5881s to get the full effect? Also, didn't know the French made any tubes, interesting. Happy with my JAN Phillips 5751. I love EL34s in my Rectoveb but have not yet tried in the Dual. I was more curious on what bias rating range...
