Nico Teigneux « That's good! »
Published on 02/06/12 at 13:345W all-tube amp.
Clean channel and overdrive channel. There's a volume for volume up and clean for the saturated gain. There is also an equalizer (bass, middle and treble) + the famous ISF button that allows to switch between the "English" to sound "American".
This amp is very comprehensive in that it also has an effects loop (for a 5W, it's rare enough to be noticed, and it's very useful)! It has a headphone / emulated that can be transplanted. It is increasingly comes with a footswitch to switch the clean channel to overdrive channel.
In short, it has everything a great!
UTILIZATION
There are quite a few knobs, but it's amazing what you can do with this amp. One of the reasons I bought this amp is that it has a very good, even at low volumes. For all the lamp, it is not common, especially with distortion. It makes the apartment ideal amp for a large and powerful without its own round up the whole neighborhood.
That said, I've never gone more than two (out of 10, 11 not extend this one) but for a 5W, he sleeps well my 15W Peavy (transistor). I never tried, but there's not necessarily means the case requisitioned with a drummer too lumberjack.
The ISF knob which takes us from his type of its kind to Marshall Mesa is not there to make nice, the sound changes and it really gives us a good range of sound. I am talking here of the distortion.
SOUNDS
To be clear, I bought it to play the Metal in the apartment. Suffice to say that I did not really dwelt on the clean channel. This is nice but nothing more. One can find much better elsewhere. That said, the clean channel is still the road, and for this I ask, I'm very happy.
For boosted channel is that of happiness, even at low volume! It's really nice to have this quality of sound without sending watts. The sound is clear, not necessarily too serious, but I've never given either lower than Re. I play on an ESP horizon microwave active and it sends the wood. I also play sometimes with a Pacifica with a Di Marzio climb the bridge, and the sound is also very good, not so cold even -> amp respect the identity of the guitar.
Oh, I forgot: the HT-5 also transcribed many dynamics: if you brush against the ropes or you avouanez, it reacts accordingly.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it now for a year and a half. I had tried other amp (15W instead), but I wanted a sound lamp, and the others were not only much more expensive, but in addition, they were worthless in distortion at low volumes. After, I have not tried all either.
At the time, I'd buy for playing in the apartment (because the head ... Marshall). Now that I'm home, I always play on him, except that group then I take my big amp. It was also used to record some guitar and made the sound is very conclusive.
The price / quality ratio is unbeatable and I would do this choice rather than two times!
