Triple, Dual, or Roadster?

[Dino334]

I currently have a dual rec roadster and am in the market for a new head. I have the opportunity to get a reborn triple rec at a great price, though I had my eye on a reborn dual rec to use for a backup. I've also got the opportunity to get another roadster at a reasonable price. I'm quite familiar with the dual rec series but have little experience with the triple recs. Any trip rec users out there? I know there's more headroom and 50 more watts, but is the sound pretty much the same as the duals? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Tighter bottom end as well, I say go with the triple reborn, can always switch it down to 50 watts.

Definitely the Triple (especially since you already have a Roadster). It was out of complete ignorance on my part that I looked past the Triple Rectos for so long. I always figured 100 watts would be more than enough. Then, I got one. The added headroom provides unbelievable tightness, bottom end, and the clean tones are punchy, powerful, and sparkly. I've had two channel and three channel Dual Recs, a Roadster, and now a Triple Rec...and the Triple, for my style, is definitely my favorite.

Thanks for the input. Tried the triple and tho it sounded great, it was just a bit much to open it up for that sweet spot. I ended up with the dual. I got the special blacked out version. No it doesn't make it sound any better, but it sure looks cool with the black diamond plate and knobs!
