This has to be my favourite amp for high gain rhythm tones of all time. I've owned at least half a dozen Boogies over the years, from Dual and Triple Rectifiers, to the first Roadking in the UK, Tremoverbs, Rectoverbs, Triaxis, 2:90 a MkIV, Mk V and a Rocket 50.
AFAIK, Most if not all Boogies use cascading gain in their preamp section. To give you a visual aid, think of a champagne glass tower.... The preamp sectioned is all wired in series, one tube "cascades" gain into the next tube. Perhaps Cliff could interpolate on the subject.
Boogies are synonymous with all genres of music. From country to modern metal and everything in-between. As a manufacturer, with the exception to Marshall, I can't think of any other amp maker who has sculpted the face of music as much as Randall Smith.
Anyone who plays metal and is yet to become friends with the Recto models, needs to kick themselves.

Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier Vacuum Tube Amplifiers
Here's the much respected Ola Englund demoing the unit in a mix context.
Personally, I'm really digging the Recto Red Modern coupled with the new High Gain Essentials Mesa EN V30's cab from Own Hammer. If you're yet to invest in the HGE pack, GO DO IT NOW!!!
Let the comments commence! I shall post some of my presets, later next week.
