Played a IV and V side-by-side today

[Metallicaseeker]

FALSE. I can set the IV to full EL34 just by using the class A switch. I can use all EL34 if it's in Class A and sometimes I like 6L6's mixing with EL34's using the simul switch!!! No power tube mixing = significant sound difference :!:

Not germane to the discussion, no one said Class A on the IV is real Class A.

yes, but you cant use EL34's on full power!
but i do agree, 2xEL34+2x6L6 is a sweet option.
As for the 2nd statement, why not? because MKIV cant pull it off :lol: ?

hey dude are you drunk?

Not unless you're buying and sorry I am busy this weekend. :mrgreen:

:lol:

dont get me wrong, i wouldnt even be selling the quad preamp if i wasnt strapped for cash..
and i do wish to own a MKIV at some point.

ULTIMATE MARK CHAMPIONSHIP :lol:

I do. Full power, class A, triode or pentode - but only using two power tubes - like a 50W Marshall. Mighty loud through one or two 4X12 cabinets.

As for the 2nd statement, why not? because MKIV cant pull it off :lol: ?

The cleans are mighty fine on the IV even without being a true class A circuit, but my 1965 Deluxe kills it.

By the way, the Mark IV was selling at Guitar Center for $950. It's gone now, of course.
