Hello,
I just ordered the 1 x 12" MC90 Widebody Theile cabinet to compliment my Mark V combo. I came here hoping to read up on this cabinet to see how others like it. I couldn't find much on this setup so I will post some feedback later next week, after I have received it. I have been playing the combo with a Bogner cube 1 x 12" V30 which sounds good. I also tried it with a vertical 2 x 12" cabinet loaded with one MC90 and one V30. That sounds really good. What sounds best is a 4 x 12" half stack loaded with V30's but can't always play with that much gear. Anyway, while I was reading on Grailtone I noticed discussion about a Mark V - B. I saw a picture of the tube cage but wondered what other changes they made to the "B" version of the Mark V over the original issue? I am mostly interested in sound / electrical changes? BTW, I have changed all the tubes. I tried EL34's, which sound great over stock. I used the Seimans. I am currently running RCA Blackplate with a mix of vintage 12AX7's. This is the best tube setup I have heard so far. Anyone who wants to discuss tubes, speakers, and mostly what is new about the rev B Mark V, please tell?
Thanks,
Jimmy
