So I have had my Roadster 2X12 combo for about two weeks now and we finally had a band practice last night....all I can say is wow, this thing is a beast! I really love the clean channels they really cut through the mix and sounded oh so sweet. I was running channel 4 modern with diodes, but ended up switching that back to the tube rectifiers. It just seemed to "growly" for my tastes. I ended up doing minor tweeks after every song to try and dial this channel in a little better. I never could get totally rid of the growl though, it almost sounds like a low-mid boost from like 500-800Hz is this normal? It could very well be the untreated room that we are jamming in. I also have been experimenting with the preamp tubes and last week I put some JJ ECC83S's in V1 and V2, maybe thats whats causing the growl? I think I'll throw the stock tubes back in and see what happens. Does anyone else have this problem and if so what have you done to tame it?
