I received a mark III today and all I can seem to get out of it is a clean sound. The amp has the r2 volume mod done by boogie already, and came with 2 non-boogie footswitches. The two button footswitch can control the EQ being in and out and I guess the other button was for reverb which was...
I've read about differences with mark III stripes. I've looked at alot of topics on this board about the stripe differences. Blue and red seem to be the most popular and green as well I guess. Anywho, I'm wondering which stripe would match me best. I've owned a mark IV and sold it, but I still...

Sometimes I hook my mark IV into a thd hotplate then use the hotplates line out into a vht 2:90:2 power amp. Is there a way I can hook the mark IV into the vht without having to use the thd though? I see a slave input and there is a recording out as well. Can the recording out act as a line out...
My boogie 2:50 power amp had a tube wear out in it. Can I used the mesa boogie tubes from my mark IV in the 2:50? I have some JJ's that were matched for the 2:50 and Bob at eurotubes said they would work with the mark IV just fine, so I'm wondering if this is the same for the mesa tubes?
I've seen some mention of this place from other forums and I was wondering if anyone here has bought tubes from doug? Do you know if he can match a quad of tubes up for my Mark IV like bob at eurotubes can? How was your experience with doug's tubes?
Well, I've really been into my avatar 2x12 since I got it some time ago. I love the portablity, I love that nice 2x12 tone, not boomy sounding at all. Anywho, one thing I'm not digging too much are the vintage 30 speakers in them. The mark IV sounds pretty good with a clean tone, and mid gain...
Have any of you guys tried putting a couple 12au7s in the mark IV's v1 and v2 preamp slots? I'm doing it right now and it sounds pretty amazing for a more laid back tone. The volume decreased significantly though. I had to pump the volume a little more. Is this normal?
I'm using JJ el34L's and 6l6 tubes in my mark 4. Bob at eurotubes picked them out for me. He said run two el34's on the outward sockets and 2 6l6's on the inward and run in Simuclass mode. I've been using the stock mesa power tubes lately, and decided I'd try my jj's again. Well when I put them...
