    early 2 channel dual rec...manufactured serial fx loop

    hi, i have a 2 channel dr. and i believe its a rev f (#2137). According to this site [url]http://vintageboogies.blogspot.com/2008/04/unofficial-history-of-dual-rectifier.html which gives the history of dual recs., says that some early duals were manufactured in serial...my jaw dropped I always...

    dc-5/10 vs. mkIV...differences

    how tight and clear is the distortion? if the mark IV was a 10 from a scale of 1-10 in tightness and clarity..in comparison, where is the DC series? (for point of reference let's say the Dual rec was a 4) i certainly don't want recto distortion like my dual rec. its way too flabby and muddy...

    dc-5/10 vs. mkIV...differences

    is there a huge difference in the amount of gain between the two??.... i have a recto and its just too flabby and the cleans are terrible in my opinion. i was super excited about the dc series b/c it seemed like it was perfect medium. Great chimey cleans, recto distortion but tighter and...

    dc-5/10 vs. mkIV...differences

    've heard great things about the DC series and am looking for something that my recto can't do. I'm sooo intrigued by the mark IV but frankly, its just out of my price range. I'm looking for an amp that can give me a great chimey clean and a great clear distortion. 1. How do the cleans compare...

    dual rec set to 50 watts...diode mode..is it really 50 watts

    that's just it....i'm confused on pulling one or keeping both rec tubes in. someone said mesa says you MUST pull one rec tube out when playing in fifty watts. i guess that's what i have been doing and i'll stick to it....however, is there a noticeable difference in tone/sound if i would keep...

    dual rec set to 50 watts...diode mode..is it really 50 watts

    so the general concensus is to connect the 8/16ohm jack from the amp to the 8 ohm jack in the speaker when run at fifty watts...and that will make it sound less boomy...

    dual rec set to 50 watts...diode mode..is it really 50 watts

    wow....thanks for the help...i feel like an idiot...but i'm sure as h#$$ happy you guys took the time to explain this to me... now knowing this i have a question...are their differences in tone if i switched from 6l6s to el34s and set to diode mode... or is there a more noticable difference if...

    dual rec set to 50 watts...diode mode..is it really 50 watts

    ok..so let me get this straight..sorry, but i just want to clarify... is it correct to assume that in diode mode i could hypothetically take out all the power tube and run it safely....in other words, does it bypass using the power tubes all together? and if that's true, then while being in...

    dual rec set to 50 watts...diode mode..is it really 50 watts

    A while ago, i pulled the correct tubes to make the Dual rec 50 watts...however!, it just occurred to me that i play in diode mode and since i'm not using the rectifier tubes...is it really playing at 50 watts?? or is it working as if i never pulled any tubes. I'm also kind of worried because...

    mxr 10 eq, isp decimator...in the loop or in front?

    OK, so i'm trying to figure out a few things. I'm having the effects loop in my DR modded to a serial loop. First off, having that in mind (i will have a serial loop) is the mxr eq more effective in the loop or up front before the amp? Most people at HCentral seem to prefer it up front...

    other than swapping tubes, what can i do to improve cleans

    Just wondering what people are doing to add clarity, sparkle, and all around improvement on their dual rec cleans...its soo frustrating. Any pedals or advice that doesnt' include upgrade to another amp?

    pedals in which order in my fx chain....Need serious advice

    After years of trying to work with my dual rec's parallel fx loop, i've decided enough's enough....i'm taking my amp to get changed to a series fx loop. i figured if i'm going to finally be able to use the loop effectively, then i'm going all out. i decided to get everything i always wanted to...

    well i'm glad i got some feedback on doug's preamp kit....anyone else have a different take on the preamp kit?... i play a lot of metal, i'd like to experiment with getting a little more gain and clarity from my two channel dual rec and at the same time improved my cleans! any other...
