NAD: MARSHAL SUPER LEAD 100W

[wharf rat]

What cab/speakers are you running it through?

So yes - I don’t have a stand alone cab (at the moment), so I set the Marshall to the 4 ohm setting and plugged it into the Ext Speaker jack of the Twin.

That's as good an idea as any!

Sounds incredible. Not even kidding.

Honestly went into this not knowing much about Marshalls, but I’m glad I bought it. Truly a wonderful amp and it has such a sweet tone.

If at some point you really want to get crazy, grab yourself an ABY box. You get sort of a poor man’s (maybe rich man’s in this case?) channel switching thing. You can put your dirt pedals on one side and blend them in with the channel volumes too. Superleads love dirt pedals.

Oh yea - that’s what I’m talking about. Definitely not a rich man, but I love nice things.

Superleads are lifetime purchases. Buy once. Cry once. Rock out always.

The exact reason why I bought it.

You need some nice cabs. Make all the difference!

That Twin is no slouch, but a 4x12 or at the very least a sealed 2x12 is mandatory for the big stuff.

Plugging the stadium into the input may have been a bad idea. Turned the stadium off after playing, amp made kind of a weird sound (buzzing-ish), and now it turns back on but no sound.

There's nothing the Stadium is going to do to hurt that amp. I'd start checking cables and connections.

I was thinking making a fuse blew or something?

When you google it first thing most people recommend is replacing the HT fuse (1a slow blow).

Took the back off and found this - pretty interesting.

That oughta take care of any stray cats in the area....Or any other small mammals.

If you saw the amp’s light active then it’s not a fuse. If you stretched your speaker cord to reach the amp, make sure you didn’t lose a physical connection on the speaker.

If there’s a non tube amp you can test with if start there so you don’t run the amp without a proper speaker load.

The cord has been seated and reseated several times. The amp light is on and the tubes glow.

Just being thorough. If you hook the speakers back up to your twin, are you getting sound?

Yep!
