Hey guys.
Ive been using an Art sla-2 SS amp with my axe-fx and Im getting tired of the unnatural fizz it has compared to for instance a marshall 9200.
I have an opportunity to buy a VHT 2150. But i have no experience with kt88's. I cant try the power amp before buying it.
Im also looking for more dynamics and to be honest.... as a gigging musician i find the Art and axe-fx combo doesnt do it for me in that aspect. I played the axe-fx through a Marshall 9200 and really preferred the sound of the marshall. I am looking at other tube amps as well (randall rt2/50, mesa 2:90 etc) but the VHT seems interesting. Does it live up to its reputation?
Any advice or tips would be appreciated.
Thanks
Cron
edit: and yes the VHT 2150 is very expensive but if im going to be REALLY REALLY happy with it i dont mind.
