Hi all, I got a Mesa boogie triple rectifier multiwatt and found it to be a lot more fizzy than my 2-channel dual rectifiers.
It feels fizzy and thin no matter the pre or powertubes in there.
I did bias the str 440 6l6’s so it sounds a bit better but not by a long shot with my duals.
I also notice that you can use the fx loop as a sort boost or more saturation?
If I enable it and dime the channel volume and then use the output volume, I get a bit more saturation and aggression.
Is that common for 3 channel triple rectifiers?
I know it needs some volume to sound better but I don’t need that volume for my dual recs so I’m trying to see what I can squeeze out of the amp.
If I’m using the fx loop v4 is being used as preamp tube?
