The guys who owned my ED originally, Mike Wolf, actually worked for Mesa for years and he said they would work fine. Groove Tubes grades their tubes 1-10 and mine are 4's. He said they would bias to Mesa's specs. The EL34M's are Mullard clones.......and they sound great! :D

The owner's manual says it's better to run your FX throught the front of the amp......just saying!

:D Just wanted to say, I installed a quartet of Groove Tubes EL34M's (4..whites) in my ED and it sounded amazing at my gig Friday night. I played my 98 McCarty with p90's and used the amp in the 45w position. It sounded full on chords and really cut through the mix when it came time for my...

My ED has 2 12's, so 70+70=140.....if you have one 12, yes it will blow, but you'd have to run it on 90w and turn it way up for extended periods!

From one Tony to another Tony :D, the Jensen's replaced a pair of 25w Greenbacks. The minute I fired the ED up, I could tell a BIG improvement. The bottom end tightened up and the highs to me, have a bell like quality, kind of like a blue celestion. They overdrive very evenly and actually...

I put a pair of Jensen Mod-12-70's 16ohm in my ED and they sound better than I could have ever hoped for! LoudspeakersPlus has them for $47. a speaker. http://www.loudspeakersplus.com/speaker-clearance.html They made all the difference in the world and for the price, they can't be beat!!

Took the ED last night for our New Years Eve gig and I'm happy to report, it kicked *** and took names! I switched between 90 and 45w and the 45w setting provided what I needed for the gig! I'm glad I didn't dump it on eBay! Happy New Year!

We play Chicago, Steely Dan, etc. We have a horn section and try to work a lot of tunes around them!

I didn't say my balance problem was gone, cause it's not, but the amp does sound so much better!! :D

It's been a while since I've posted but I'd like to update my ED Dissapointment post. I've been waiting patiently on my ED to sound the way I like it and it was an easy, under $100. fix. I installed 2 Jensen Mod.70w.12'. 16ohm speakers (made in Italy) and the amp sounds great! The greenbacks...

I've been sidetracked a bit Jeffp, but plan on changing some preamp tubes and seeing if that helps any. Been playing a bunch and have just been using my Fuchs ODS......which is a great amp!!

Just by chance at last nights gig, the guy who owned the ED originally came by. At the break I cornered him and told him of my ED problems. He assured me that it was probably just a bad preamp tube(s). He offered to stop by the house and give it a listen, so I'll try replacing the 3 hi-lo preamp...

Birdy, I'm all ears? I get what it does, I just can't make my ED do it, not to my liking anyway! Help me understand why my Hot Rod Deluxe works and sounds great between all 3 modes and the ED falls short? I did notice this afternoon that when I turn the treble all the way up, there's a very...

as Dave on Storage Wars would say: "Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep"! lol!

I'm still working with it jeffp. I love the clean and I love what it does overdriven, I still can't make it do both at the same time??.....but I'm not giving up just yet! lol!

So, I had a few hours today and I started from square one. I got my ED, my TA, and the manual and sat down to see what I could do. First, for me, this amp is just too loud. It's either balls to the wall, or it's bedroom level....(and at this level, that's where the trim switch on the back...

"To Toneocaster; how old are your power tubes? If they've been in there for awhile then it's possible they're worn out. When it happens I find it more obvious on dirty than clean tones, and even though we're harping on your settings in this thread some of the settings you did try should've...

"Also, the amp is much tighter in 90 watt mode then it is in 45 watt mode"...Primal, agreed!

Thanks DWAKO....I'll give it a go.

The volume was between 11 and 1 o-clock , treble was straight up 12, mid 10 or 11, bass 12 to 10, presence 10 to 1. and the master at 9. The reverb was set on for all modes and the rear "clean level" was on hi-low, but from what I understand, as the volume increases, this function...
