Thank you for the constructive response but I was looking for something a little different. I am not joking when I say having the master output at 1.5 is like I'm at a show standing right next to the speakers. I've always thought that is just how the amp is, since I've had it for 9 years...

Finally bought my own house so I can play at a more reasonable level than 0.5 on the master output. Cranked her up to 1 and the whole house shook so I went for the volume mod and snipped the resistor off. It's a bit more user friendly from 0.5 to 1.5 but anything past 1.5 I should probably...

Since you were still in the market on March 26th, I use the Maxon OD808.

So where do you all store your spare tubes? Most of the tubes I have purchased from ebay don't come with boxes. My growing collection will eventually become shards if I don't do something in the near future. I was thinking about getting a plastic case with foam or something similar...

When I was retubing my DC5 and looking at tubes for my brothers Triple Rec the general consensus (take it for what it is) is EL34's sound better then 6L6's. My brother had already purchased a sextet of matching 6L6 =C= so grabbing a sextet of EL34's wasn't in the budget. I'm not saying one is...

A lot of people recommend the SED Winged C tubes. I have them in my DC-5 and my brother has them in his Triple Rec. He purchased them from here... http://tctubes.com/6L6GC-SED-Winged-C-new-production---premium-matched.aspx ...and said they had great service, so a few weeks later I...

I called Mesa and left a voicemail asking them about the positions. They called me back the same day and left me a voicemail saying that the DC-5 was the only amp to his knowledge that they didn't include the schematic in the user manual. He said if you look at the DC-10 user manual, it's...

I tried out the 5751 in the PI slot. Once again, for me, just as my 12AT7 did, the 5751 took away too much gain to leave it in the slot. The gain would break extremely late and it just not for me. I do have a NOS Mullard 12AT7 flying in from Germany... soon. I'll put that in the PI slot to...

I'm still slowing playing with different tubes and am new to the tube swapping but I did put an RCA 12AT7 "EZ" Code (I have searched and haven't found much of anything on that code) in my PI slot on a DC-5 and I did not like the way it dropped the gain. I put a JJ 12AX7 back in my PI and tried...

Mostly "newer" rock.. Chevelle, Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Bullet for My Valentine. I've been learning a few Devil Wears Prada songs recently. Of course I like to throw in Metallica when no one else is around. I am looking to move off the rock and learn jazz as it much more appealing to listen to...

I've been lerking on the Boogie Board for a long time but finally decided to register to let you all know I have been a proud owner of the DC5A for nearly six years and wouldn't trade it for anything (seriously).
