I am a obsessive moron idiot. Always comparing shit and feel like wasting time usually. Never the less this is my latest obsession. I have both of these amps here and did a ton of tests. TSL is good because it can do low volume recording 25 watt VPR. So I did some tests with the 25 watt on and off against the JCM800. I got to return one in a few days.

Please download the zip and tell me what you guys think. My fucking ears are bleeding. Try to keep in mind not to favor the "louder" clips.

It is a blind test! Each folder contains a similar riff. Out of those folder you pick the one you like best.
ex:
A - 4
B - 8 and so on

Thanks for feeding the obsession!

What year is the JCM 800? Reissue? What cabs did you use? Guitars? Pickups?

Still listening to the clips so I'll post agian when they're finnished.
 
Sorry. Guitar used for all clips the same LP with EMGs. 2203x. Cabinet MArshall 1960 Vintage.
 
Thanks for feedback. I am very surprised. I am waiting for a few more posts and will post anwers. They sound very similar some of them but they are bit different in subtle ways.

Working on metal clips now that will be interesting. Just by listening to them already as I do them.
