As you guys know, I'm going back to a Rack Set-up. out of these Power amps which would go for with the Egnater M4 and an ADA 3TM? I would LOVE a VHT but cant find one for $600. :(
 
VHT 2/50/2 under $600 all day long and yes it is plenty loud. You will love the Depth and voicing options on them, trust me.

Love my 2:90. Loved it THROUGHLY when we used to slave the Mark iv to it an out thru 2 4x12s. :lol: :LOL: :D :lol: :LOL:
I'll never get rid of that beast. its Fkn Stupid good...Gives ya lots of tone options, depending on preamp....
That said, the VHT is a killer. Given a choice, right now, for headroom and tone, I might have to take the VHT. But you didnt hear that from me......
;) :D
 
Man up and just get a Coli 300 and slave a Coli MK III with it ya n00b :lol: :LOL:
 
:lol: :LOL: shit man, It would be nice...WAY overkill but still nice. :D


I'd kill for a VHT though.
 
had to redo the poll......please cast a vote and tell me why. :D

Oh shit, YES! You need to do this. Wait....That's what I want to do. Never mind. Please return to your quest for a little low powered amp that is not a Coli 300.

:D
 
Either the Mesa 2:90 or VHT 2502.

Both have excellent tone. The 2502 to my ears sounds a bit tighter. The only thing with the Mesa 2:90 is its loud.. and to me, it way "stupid" loud. Unless your playing big venues and need alot of stage volume, I'd go with the 2502. I've played different size stages and its always been loud enough for my needs for stage volume.

Or you can buy my Mesa 2:90 :D
 
I too would go for either the VHT 2502 or Mesa/Boogie 2:90. I probably would go with the VHT because I am quite fond of their power amps and am sure that would create an exceptional array of tones when coupled with the Egnater.
 
Get something with depth and presence knobs/switches..

I have the Mesa 395 and love it. I like the fact that it's got the deep switch and 2 channels. I do think it can get quite loud but wouldn't want any less power for a wet/dry/wet setup. I like 6L6 power amps as I think it works and adds a little something with the Marshall.
 
A VHT is well worth the extra money you will pay. If I were to go to a rack setup and use a tube power amp, I would get a VHT over anything, unless I got a ridiculous deal on something else.
 
didn't vote. :thumbsdown:

VHT 2150's go for less that Marshall 9200's and weigh about the same.

Seriously, a black 2150 can be had for <$700 sometimes.
 
Thanks guys, I got a deal going on a VHT 2-50-2 (thanks Dr.Korey) :thumbsup:


My First VHT!!! I'm stoked!

:rock:

Yep!
The 2150 is what I had with my Bogner Fish back in 1991...
Best power amp I ever tried !!

Of your choices I'd go 2:90. Of 2 choices you don't have listed: VHT 2/90/2 and Mesa 50/50 I'd go 2/90/2.
 
I'd say VHT, but I voted Randall because it's a nice power amp at a damn good price.
