Hi guys,
Has anyone gotten to compare a Recto, Uber, SLO, or 5150 together? I'm currently on the hunt for a new amp, and am in the heavy research phase. I'm trying to determine if a switch in speakers can take me to the tone I'm thinking of, or if a new amp through my Mesa Traditional 412 can do it.
The sound I'm imagining is somewhat brown in nature, but isn't terribly different from my Roadster Ch3 in Vintage mode with the variac power. I kind of think the 5150 would get me there, but that amp was voiced with greenbacks. I wouldn't buy an SLO, but rather an X88 rack preamp, but I figure that and an SLO are close enough for comparison's sake.
Thanks for any thoughts and experiences!
