So, it's that time in my life where I have to down size. Wife + Kids + house = I don't NEED a 7 foot tall tower of awesome. I currently own a Triple Rec, Boogie 4x12 Standard Slant, a Boogie 4x12 Straight oversized cab, Boogie 2x12 Recto cab and a Boogie 1x12 3/4 back (converted to closed back with EVM12L :mrgreen: ) Yes, I know it's A LOT of gear. But when you're one of the only guitarists in your area who has had a good job for over a decade and never went through the drug, alcohol, crazy girlfriend, pawned my gear and what ever other phases a lot of musicians go through in their 20s, you benefit from the killer deals. Since I don't play out much anymore, I have no need for 4 cabs. I was thinking about selling/trading my Triple Rec + a 4x12 for a Roadster, then selling the other 4x12. I'll keep the 2x12 or 1x12 depending on what sounds best with the new amp. I know the Roadster is almost 100 lbs, but so are both of my 4x12s. I'm a pretty big guy and I keep in shape, so the weight doesn't scare me.
My question is how will the two compare in sound/tone. I already know all the specs of the amps so I don't need to be reminded that one is 150 watts and the other is 100. How would the Roadster combo compare to the Triple Rec + 2x12 type of thing. I play mostly metal on 7 and 8 string guitars so please keep that in mind.
Thanks.
