I swear my Mark IV sounds "boxy" when compared to my TriAxis, even when running it through the same 4x12 cabinet. In fact, I'm almost to the point of trading it for a Rectifier. However, I noticed in another thread:
My Mark IV has two EL34's outside of two 6L6's. Could this be the problem? Will it be easy to just swap them for 6L6's fix it or will I need to rebias it?
I do like the Mark IV, but it is just not as thick as my TriAxis or my former Recto.
