Bought this one today on marketplace
Wanted something to pair the synergy with that is better than my 8008 marshall valvestate.

Not much to found online except it's a limited run ?

Problem :
Connected it to the torpedo x
Connected input and output on master
Amp powers up
As soon i take channel right (master) out of standby it's end of story.

I'll bring it to a technician on Wednesday ;(
In the mean time, anyone more info on this amp ?

What do you mean "end of the story?"

No sound? Shutting off? Any fuses blown?

It could be something as simple as a bad power tube or grid screen resistor. Or it could be something more serious.

it's worth getting it diagnosed, this is a killer power amp.
 
It's now with the repair service.
Also the white fuses on the board under the tubes were all blown.

I'll let them figure it out ;(
Seller keeps saying it was 100%.... At least the price was good ;)
 
2x100w
8 powertubes
3 pre amp

Can connect 4 pre amps and 4 cabs in total.
It's a special piece of gear. That's why I bought it. Never realized there are so few.
 
i have a torpedo Capture x. It should be able to handle 100w. My carvin v3 is no problem for it.

Otherwise I'll probably lower the volume on the pre amp. I prefer the breakup of the power section with the carvin and marshall so i hope the engl will add that same "balls"

Couldn't test it yet ;(
