CK Music carries the AD-series amp
AD30 prolly costs 1.2k now, but thats just probably, i have no idea how much it really costs, check the music shop thread for CK Music's number and look for abang syahril probably can give u a better price =)

as for tube changing, it won't die so quickly so don't worry
but a good preamp tube would cost roughly 70-120 bucks depending wat brand of tube and where you get it [some places are blatant ripoffs]

mine is made in vietnam
don't know bout the newer ones

hey guys,
any chance that your ad50 has its tube mounted upside down?
cuz mine looks like its mounted upside down

eq pedal eh?
a ge-7 should do the job

don't get behringer's eq pedal
sure it works well sounds ok too, till the switch and jack craps out

=.=

changing tubes so quickly? better to get someone who is experienced to do the change, since this involves many things like biasing and stuff like that.

clicky
Heres an article about how to bias and basically what biasing affects in the amp. Truth be told, I'm not sure whether this is relevant or not since our amp is using a preamp tube in the power amp section. Assuming it works like how it should, this should play a role.

Anyway, I'm not very well versed in tube and how amps work, there are people who are better versed than me, so google for more info.

Final note, threadstarted is having finals now. Cut him some slack for the time being. =D

Hope it helps dooooood XD

From the pins, it looks the same, but I haven't tried it yet. Need to go find the cable first lol.

mmm?
1w should be enough =/

ah
then that changes things completely
if your drummer really pummels it, the 30 watter may not have enough juice to cut in the mix
the 50 has plenty of juice tho

Cables carrying higher amperage rating won't melt when high current flows through it. If the device the cable is connected to, has a higher current requirement, it might melt the cable.

Nah it isn't an expensive mod. TBH, I've always wanted to make the metal grill into a clothe grill, to make it look more vintage. There was an online Vox forum that had a tutorial or was it pictorial for the mod. I'll try to dig see whether I can find it. =D

CK music carries vox
look up the music shop thread

wtf? korg bought marshall???

DA5 expensive la =/
15 watters price oso close to it alr

Some people actually DIY the grill, using brown clothe and stitching the crisscrossing pattern on it. Looks a lot like a vintage Vox.
Nice mod btw.

i remember someone asked for some soundclips

just recorded some in the past hour
will upload it after dinner


i'm not very good so please pardon the many many mistakes

thats great!
do post that in the music shops thread too
will help many many penangites out!

VTX is the bigger brother of the VT IIRC.
Think the Vox tonelab SE built into a combo amp =p

VTX?
I thought those came with Vox Neodog speakers?
Maybe they had celestion solutions =p

Well considering the preamp tube is in the poweramp section I think the life span is quite good.
JJ tubes 12ax7 I heard it is warmer and has slightly more gain.

well online prices says it goes for bout 10usd

so im guessing in the range of 50-60?
