New Mesa Mark amp coming?

[James Freeman]

I thought maybe his block size on his interface is too low.

The CabClone IR itself has ADC/DAC stages and buffers like any other IR loader, I hope it's not the actual amp.

I learn so much from hanging out in this place.

That Line out jack is what interests me.

Thin, buzzy, bloated, lacks definition, expensive, uncontrollably loud, needlessly replaced a better predecessor, made by Gibson.

It sure is neat that you can hear how "uncontrollably loud" something is from a youtube video played back at whatever volume you have your own stereo set for. Hey can I start saying every amp I've arbitrarily decided not to like is "uncontrollably loud" too?

It's also neat that you think its predecessor was "better." Can you describe the differences you heard and felt when you directly compared these amps (which you've definitely done, right)?

It's ALSO neat that you think this amp was "made by Gibson" when it began its development years before Gibson bought Mesa, and was already being finalized by the time Gibson signed the paperwork.

He was joking... trying to talk himself out of buying it.

 

[James Freeman]

Come on now, that was a joke.

Hah then it looks like I've been got.

In my defense, I've just seen too many identical posts on Another Forum that sincerely mirrors those thoughts exactly and I got tired of hearing that nonsense lol.

I used the Tuner out on the Mark V.

I don’t care what anyone says at this point, that amp sounds awesome, and I’ve done my absolute best to stop from ordering it. (Luckily the stupid price for amps helps cure the GAS)

I agree. Some I feel are being "prisoners of the moment" and seduced by the novelty of the new when it is a lesser offering
than its predecessors.

The MKV and JP2C are proven commodities at this point. MKVII has to earn its street cred and a few YT videos is not
going to accomplish that.

On the contrary, I am NOT joking.

In fairness, we don't really know if it is nonsense or not at this point. It could be nonsense. Or some of the
skeptical among us could be on to something. :


Give us a year to see how this all plays out, then we can determine more accurately how the models compare against one another.

MKV vs. MKVII Cagematch. It's on!!

Some love the MKIV over the Mrak V and they are not wrong. Some still prefer the MKIII, and the legend of the
MKIIC+ will never die.

Newer is not always better. It is novel, though, and we as humans are often seduced by that Great Temptress,
for good and ill.

Agreed completely. Really to all of this. Even if I am still riddled with (ir)rational GAS

General consensus on the web in 2010 when I had a Mark V was that it was a massive turd

I'm trying to get a 3rd job so I can claim that employee discount. No luck so far

I wonder what the used prices will be like on these in June or July?
