Yup, the Hot Plate works great not just for home volume levels; I use mine at gigs to get that cranked wide open tone while keeping a reasonable stage volume for mic'ing through the PA. You will need a female-to-male speaker extension cable though, because the combo speaker cable is too short...

I couldn't agree more with the comment about cranking it up. I know there have been complaints about "ice-pickiness" with the Ace but my experience has been that is due to the speakers not being broken in and the amp being run at too low a volume. I have three suggestions that worked great for...

Ok, after doing some more research, I think I've answered my own question. I believe that, assuming that the cabs are the same ohms, that the amp distributes it's wattage evenly between both cabs. So in my case, each cab gets 25 watts. I am further assuming that the 1x12 gets the full 25...

So I am still on the quest for an extension cab for my Ace 2x12. I'm currently looking at the Roadster 1x12 and have a few questions. Any pros/cons to using a 1x12 cab with a 2x12 combo? How does the amp divide the power up (i.e. equal among the three speakers or between the two cabs)? Thanks.

I am looking to get an extension cab for my Ace 2x12 combo. A new Stiletto/Roadster 2x12 goes for $589 and there is a 6 week+ build time. I haven't been able to find either in stock (even at GC; according to the salesperson they're not in stock in the whole chain which doesn't sound right...)...

Thanks for the reply. I just got in touch with Mark at Lava Cable and he will make me a cable for $19.95 so I am going that route. Thanks again.

I need a 3 ft. extension speaker cable (i.e. female 1/4" on one end and 1/4" male on the other) so I can hook up my Ace combo to my Hot Plate. Does anyone have any suggestions where I can get one at a reasonable price? A Google search only turned up Mulder Audio, which has one for $100...

Hi everyone, I am due to receive my Stiletto Ace 2x12 in a couple of weeks from Mesa and am wondering about breaking in the speakers. My experience with my Rectifier Standard 4x12 was that the tone was much improved after the speakers were broken in. I found the following on Celestion's website...

I'm looking for a good pedal based effects loop. Basically, I want that straight "guitar plugged straight into the amp" tone when the pedal/loop is off. There are quite a few out there; besides the Radial ones most seem to be boutique and I'm have a hard time finding reviews. I came across...

Thanks to everyone that replied. I just ordered the Ace 2x12 combo in black. I've really decided to give the Ace a try and buying the head and a 2x12 was out of my budget. 6-8 weeks till delivery (hopefully more like 6!). I've decided not to sell my 1/2 stack yet so I figure I'll do some...

Hi everyone, this is my first post to any forum although I am a long-time reader here. I will get right to the point; I play in a modern hard rock band (think Breaking Benjamin, Theory of a Deadman, etc.) that gigs out once or twice a month at smaller clubs/bars. For the last year or so I have...

I just wanted everyone to know that I bought the Mesa cab that BJ was also selling yesterday and everything went smoothly. If you're thinking about buying this head from him, have no worries. Thanks.
