Time for a new amp?: Mesa Mark V or SLO Astro

Yeah that's why I'm dragging my feet lol

I'll check the radial

You can switch between two heads using the same cab for under $500.

You're not asking, but I would run the Channel Volumes lower and the Master higher.

A sort of default method for better tone at lower volume is to run your Master(s) up a bit
and then use your Channel volume to control overall Volume. Otherwise, you are only
really getting all Preamp sizzle and saturation and none of the Big Bottles and their warmth.

Nice haul, Josh.

Even more fun is to set the channel masters to noon, then reach around back and bypass the loop/master volume circuit. Be sure to stand to the side of the cabinet when doing this, or there is the risk of sterilization.

I think an amp switcher is next on my buy list is KHE the staple?

I have a DeLisle and can recommend it. Made in the States.

Well thanks to a loadbox I was able to push the SLO to 7 lol between 6 and 7 it just gets this sudden warmth to it.

I think I prefer running it lower but could definitely see why people may like pushing it. It just gets a little too mushy from what I am assuming is pushing the power amp
