Needed a poweramp in my Axe FX through a Matchless cab rig . I initially bought the SD and the BAM200. BAM200 sounded much better; returned the SD. BAM200 worked great but but I needed a 1u to put into a rack. Couldn't find a Matrix so I bought a new Palmer 402 Macht. Sounded pretty decent (not as tweakable as the BAM 200 though). Volume is no issue, usually 11 o clock for gig volume. Just a couple of days ago, I lucked into a used Matrix GT1000FX in great condition for under 500 bucks. Compared the Matrix and Palmer. Same cab and patches. The patches through the Matrix sound sooooo sweet compared to the Palmer. One thing that puzzles me though is the I have to turn the Matrix up to 1:30 o clock to get anywhere close to gig volume, the Palmer I get to gig volume at 11 o clock. Why would that be?
The Matrix manual says "0.775v / 0 dBu Inputs. Input level optimised for guitar amplifier use
How do I check this?
