Hi all. Im new here and I have a question I was hoping some one could help me with. I may have the chance to get the JP2C soon but I was wondering how it performs at low volumes when it comes to modern high gain. It doesnt have to be whisper volumes but low enough to keep form blowing up the house or pissing the wife off. It'll be played through a Recto 2x12 if that helps any. Any input would be appreciated, thanks.
Have you considered getting or trying an attentuator?
From my limited tests low volume is fine. But if you're open to an attenuator I can highly recommend the Torpedo Reload for this. I typically run mine at 60w with the channel masters around 9:30 to 10o'clock and the Torpedo reducing that to about 1/4 to 1/2 depending on if anyone's home. Works amazingly well and allows the amp to drive as it does but keep the volume to as quiet as you need.
For this amp specifically, it works great as an overall master since balancing the 3 can be a bit of annoying since it doesn't have an overall volume.
