Debating on buying a Single Rectifier

[Sixstringpsycho]

I play several styles of music and have a DC-5 as my main amp. Looking for that heavy modern recto tone. Will a single rec make me smile? I have yet to play one so I am looking for one to demo. any insight from single rec owners?

I recorded everything on there with a single rec.
Excuse the overall sloppiness, but that should give you an idea of the sound.

Yes, a Single or a ROV will give you that recto sound. If you need more headroom, get the dual tho.

I love mine! It's a wonderful amp, many tones.

I love my RoV combo, tool. It's one of Mesa's best!! And, they just dropped the price on new ones to like $1,149 I think? It gives me that Recto saturation and brutality we all love. Highly recommend. I've got some videos on YouTube of my RoV combo, but the quality is not the best...

I am considering a RoV combo now actually

 

[Sixstringpsycho]

does the RoV have a better clean than the single rec?

these things just sound wayyyy too saggy and mushy to my ears.

saggy and mushy is not what i need, I don't need a ton of head room so i keep going back to the single rec, might be what i end up getting soon

well, if you dont want saggy or mushy, maybe a Dual? Or Mark series?
