IMHO its not that of a Big Step Coz probably by now you already mastered the art of tweaking them knobs and dialing the exact tone, I Love and Miss the Tone of My Solid State Marshall 4040 (Unless You wanna Play Louder LOL!) The Only Downside of playing With Tubes is They are F**ng Heavy to Carry Around and gig with it enjoy the new amp man!

Yah I just don't get the point why they're so heavy lolz.

The two transformers in tube amps are responsible for that.

Walang output transformer ang solid state amps, kaya safer gamitan ng higher impedance speaker at the cost of inefficiency. Ang tube amp may power transformer at output transformer. Tapos pag higher wattage pa, ang lalaki ng iron.

Sayang naman kung idedelete itong thread. Daming helpful info from other forumers.

Install ka ng gulong sa amp mo para at least di mo na kelangan buhatin. Just make sure na pwede malock yung gulong

15 watters are generally easy to lug around naman and should be loud enough for most unmiced gigs. Otherwise, you can ask your bandmates to help you carry them around haha. Or get a trolley!

yung pangpalengke style! ganito lang paps:




PHP 350 lang bili ko hahaha! tapos I just tie it up using those garter with hooks

[ryechua]

for bigger amps, pwede to. ganito ang gamit ko and its good for transporting and even for just moving the amp around the house. no need to drill holes to install wheels.

Ah yup meron din ako nito pero mas gamit ko yung handtruck sa Ace kasi maliit tumupi. Katako lang din talaga i-trolley ang tube amps kasi natatagtag baka magka rattle yung tubes.

Okay to ah kaso parang hindi masyadong sturdy.

matibay naman. it can take my 20KG++ LC30 and ginamit ko na rin on other heavy objects sa bahay (cabinets, steel bars, disassembled bed frames, etc).

lagyan mo ng rags sa ilalim papsi para "padded" at least yung shocks.

brother rye, where'd you get this and how much?

If your tube amp is built to spec, it shouldn't be an issue. People used to tour around the chitlin circuit in the 50s in cars with their amps in tow.

Make sure that the tubes have cooled down before lugging the amp around.
