It seems at first, it was alot of, "it's thin this" and, "it doesnt measure up to/or sound like the previous Marks" that, kind of talk. Now our amp is beginning to be known as what it should have been from the start, THE MARK 5!
But we all knew that back then, did'nt we fella's?

I think that the first sentence says it all. Learning how the controls interact as well as choosing the tubes and speakers that best suit your ears and playing style.
The early tone comparisons were done mostly because of the wording in the Mark V users manual. If I did not already own a Mark series amp, the V would be my choice based on features. It does its own thing very well. 8) With that being said, I chose to keep my Mark IIs and buy an Electra-Dyne for a different flavour. These two amps blended in stereo are a VERY nice combination. :wink:
