Dafuq??? Bought a weird amp…

[spawnofthesith]

Wait so what’s the verdict/thoughts on this be Satan!?

Were they the same tube type?

I also think that bigger amps sound "bigger" but it could be because they have more clean headroom and can make the speaker distort before the amp gets saturated.

Would like to experiment and find out why some day.

You have to really pummel speakers to make them distort. Higher output power with bigger transformers usually means the dynamic range is wider, it sounds brighter with bigger, tighter low end so the entire sound of a 100W seems "wider".

He responded fairly quickly and told me the Dragon is 50w only. Colors are an option and I told him I like the red I saw in a video. Really looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

 

[Genghis]

Is that one $600 also?

I think he quote $700 plus $160 shipping. i wish the Mk III channel was something else, as I already have 2 Boogies to cover those sounds, but this should have a bit different flavor even there.

Awesome! What was the date that you ordered it. I'm getting a Dragon and I ordered in mid-December, maybe around the 15th, I think.

Yep looks like I ordered on the 15th, I think a few of us all ordered within 24hrs of each other

He said he's shipping out monday or tuesday. I'm guessing at least 2 weeks travel time before it makes it to me lol

 

[Genghis]

Very cool. I think mine should be getting ready in the next week or two depending on where I am in that quick block. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts when it comes in!

Looks like it’s made it out of Ukraine today!

Or alternatively, the clone will show that there's nothing that special about them. I'm not convinced the Wizard amps are anything more than a modded JCM800, and you could get those tones out of other boutique amps that cost several thousand less.

I've spent some time with the Wizard MC2.....amazing amp to be sure but the price tag is just silly. 100% not worth it to me

Dragon here too. Probably just behind you guys on the orders list. Looking forward to hearing what all of you guys have to say.

Trying to zero in on one between the Orion, Benzin and Brown Eye. I have a JJ Jr so I think I could wait on the Brown Eye.
