Hey guys, I have owned my DC-10 now for roughly 5 months and wow, i love it!
I'm not as clued up as i'd like to be so i have a few simple questions, any help, advice would be great
First of all, as you all know, the amp is pretty loud. Ive been reading up about Power Attenuators, i think this is the way forward for me to be able to reach the tone i desire without my ears bleeding? Which one would you recommend as the most suitable unit. THD seem to be the most popular from what ive read, if so, what Ohm would best suit my DC-10?
secondly, i have been using the amp set to 60watts as opposed to 100watts. Am i right in saying that when set to 60watts i am only getting the use of 2 power amp tubes instead of 4 when set to 100watts?
And last but not least.... whats everyones oppinion on master and channel volumes? High channel volume and low master? Half and half of both? Or high master and low channel? I have been playing around with it myself, im just curious to get other peoples oppinions
I know my questions are pretty simple to some of the guru's on the board but it would be a big help and mean alot to me if i could get some information, so i can learne more!
Many thanks, guys
James
