By all means, yes. Thanks for asking. Maybe just credit the source?3rdcurve wrote:Do you guys mind if I throw that pic up over at TB for the guys?
I received the new Clarus+ earlier this week. This thing matches up with the MAS45 really well. It's a very quiet, flat amp and does a great job controlling the low frequencies through this cab. I had it really cranked and there was no sign of stress from the amp or cab. The preamp does a great job with pickups like the Full Circle, Lifeline, and Ehrlund and the new EQ is way more functional than earlier models.Steve Regier wrote:

Thank goodness for Bluetooth. Hopefully he will have some photos to share soon. The 210 is quite a wiring project. Mike's comment was,"...there can't be much more wiring in an amp!" He might be right.

I'd go with the JGR. The tone controls are much more useful and JGR's gone out of his way to address issues like subsonics and other problems.I feel that JGR's is a more finished product
We are looking into an internal high powered digital amp in the future.(in the speakers) Possibly one with DSP. There is a Danish company that looks really good---great quality and good prices. They make a module that's small and light and uses a digital power supply but a class AB output.Kindof like the early Markbass---but much more audiophile quality. I liked these early Markbass amps more than the ones with the digital power output section.
I'd bug JGR about an all tube amp.I bet it would be the best on the planet. I've never liked tubes with bass but the Big E's are so focused that they do really well with tubes.
Not that I'd carry it around but when Tom Bowlus plugged in the Reeves and then plugged in my Tecamp it was a bit of a letdown. I think that the Tecamp is the best digital amp on the planet but that Reeves was the best thing I'd ever heard.
Thanks Mike, I have definitely tried nudging him into the full tube realm.

Perhaps the only way to use both my amps channels is to get a pair of MA109's or a pair of MA112's, and stack them up in their horizontal orientation. I thought I read something about doing it that way here.
