My Mesa quad is starting to crap out on output B. Output A is fine. It is (somewhat) intermittent. But, when it starts to go, it gets nasty: bad breakup, volume cutting to near 0... My natural assumption was "tube". But, I sat there and replaced each tube, one by one, with no love. Anybody...

I'm in the midst of setting up a pretty complex Wet/ Dry/ Wet rig. For the wet cabs, which are considerably lower volume, I'm using 2 1 X 12 Recto cabs. They have V30s in them but I have a couple G12Hs that I thought might be a bit more flat/ full for the EFX. Anybody have any opinions on...

I am messing around with different speakers/ cabs for my Mark 2A. It's got an EVM-12-L in it and that sounds good for clean. But, 2 x 12 w/ V30s sound good for dirt. My question is: I'd rather use the (2) 1 x 12s (V30s) that I use with my 20/20s and preamps and get rid of the 2 x 12s...

I'm trying to replace the V30 that came in a used Thiele cab w/ an EVM-12L. I can't figure out how to get the old speaker out! I've taken off the grille and undone the 4 screws attaching the speaker to the front baffle. It wouldn't budge. So, I took off the back only to realize that there...

I just changed the speaker in my Mark 2A (JBL to EVM 12L). I played it for a few minutes and it just faded away to nothing over 3-5 seconds, accompanied by a bit of an electrical-burning type smell. The amp has worked great for years. I have not changed the tubes in a long time because I...

I'm considering putting JBLs into some Mesa cabs. I've got a Mark 2a that came with a JBL k120. I've got a 3/4 back cab that came with an E120. I don't use the Mark much anymore (WAY too loud, particularly with JBL) as I've moved to a rack-based system with Recto Pre, Studio Pre & Triaxis...

I am the 1st to admit I'm electrically challenged. However, I'm also cheap. On my Triaxis, the (B) inner output dial has stopped working. That channel plays full regardless of what you do with the (B) output dial. The A (outer) dial works fine. This is (basically) a new Triaxis. I ordered a...

I need some help with the Triaxis Preset Editor? It loads fine and, although kinda balky, eventually makes changes in presets loaded to Triaxis from Editor. I've searched everywhere I can. But, I cannot figure out how to do 2 things: 1.) Combine presets in different banks on Triaxis. IE: I...

I'm trying to set up a new rig w/ my Triaxis. Previously, I've used only 20/20s but am considering a 2:90 so I can gain the benefit of the voice switching. My concern is that, even at 1/2 power, I'm going to have to run the 2:90 at a really low level (I rarely turn up the 20/20s past 50%)...

I've added a Triaxis to my gear (running into a 20/20 to stereo Recto cabs). I'm trying to add various stereo EFX devices (TC G Force, Axe Ultra,..) via the send/ receive route. I get EFX OK but I have no control over wet/ dry mix from the Triaxis itself. I've read manual and it says master is...

I've been messing with my Mark IIA a bit recently (something I don't do as much these days as it is just WAY too loud!). When I pull the Master 1 gain boost out, my tone turns to virtual mush. It's all low end. The distortion is sweet but it's awfully dark sounding. Even with low (3) Volume...
