Non Master Volume Amps 10 vs. 9

My possibly skewed understanding is that non-master-amps have master default value set to 10 just to identify them as non-master volume amps - the master volume control on these amps do basically the same thing as the level control (has no impact on power amp dynamics - just increases volume)

Very wrong!

Edit: reading more of this thread clears it up :)

Yes. Plexis are all about power amp distortion and just don't sound right with a master volume. A post-PI MV is better but still not the same thing because it lowers the forward gain of the power amp and hence changes the gain reduction. It sounds pretty cool though. Try changing the MV Location to Post-PI and then reduce MV.

I've found that the post-pi mv setting is like an instant cool button on most amps..
I love what it does.. especially to the jcm800 and mkiic
