- Friedman Plex vs Bogner Helios 50. Some noodling, some tech explanations towards the end. Forgot to mention that the first mode is not affected by the three band eq, just bright switch and the two power amp eqs ( presence, deep).

Great vid and tones 👌 they sound a lot closer than I was expecting. You’ve saved me some cash! I have a 50w Helios and would be happy with a freidman too
Great comparison. One sounded noticeably better than the other… I just have no idea which amp you were playing at the time.
Nice comparison.... The Friedman amps all seem to have that Mid forward sound....i can get used to it but when you switch back to the Bogner it sounds more rounded, to my ears more pleasing... appreciate the video
Jailbreak and The Boys r back in town!
A lot of Thin Lizzy vibe ❤
Can you do a comparison of the Plex and the Marshall SV20H?
Always show which amp you are playing. Your finger pointing is far too imprecise. It's hard to see through. Thanks for the comparison anyway. Great video. kind regards
Agree, put text on the screen or something!

Helios FTW
This made me appreciate my Helios a little more! Thanks for all the comparison videos with the PLEX. What’s your take on it at this point - does it have a place with all your other awesome M-style amps?
Thanks. Sure, will stay. Sounds nice, looks cool, nice PCB, keeps its value
Helios - Green, Plex - red for those not seeing the chapters
Thank you so much for those Plex compairsions!
Pleasure
Very nice. Is this a mic'ed cab or a IR?
Mic‘ed old V30 in an isolation cab
Nice comparisons! Both sound great and pretty similar. What's your favorite up to now?
Thanks. I love the Helios for the 70s/80s modes. Plex-wise not sure yet, will convert my JMP into one and then decide 😊
Bogner seems to have more hair. could be an EQ thing
The bogner has some crazy sag goin on. Similar to turning Bias X and Sag in the helix modelling software waaay up. Cool stuff.
Sounds amazing.....
Watched a few of your vids now comparing the Plex to other amps. First of all, thanks. Second I feel like maybe you dialed in a tone on the Bogner first and then dialed the Plex to match as well as you could, correct? The reason I think this because while they both sound I think the flex sounded better in the other vids where you compared it to the small box and the 20 watt Marshall. Maybe just my ears?
Good ears! You are correct. Helios at volume noon is really loud, has higher volts and no three band eq, but just the bright switch and the poweramp eq ( presence, deep).
Preferring the extra brightness of the Friedman in this case personally. What's the switch you're using?

Both sound lovely lizzy ❤
Thank you !
I was able to play a Helios here at No1 Hamburg about three weeks ago and now I have GAS. For me, 80s Mode sounded so perfect. The bass control was fully on, unfortunately I don't know how deep and presence were set... but the low mids were great and the Marshall scratch /bite was there without being scratchy and still assertive...
cheers

It was an eclipse, but the eclipse mode had way too much gain
I love that mode. Instant Sykes.
nice amp collection keep working on your video making skills & playing for good video content!
Which is PLEX and which is Helios?
Starting with Helios.
@@duese888 Thank you.
Plex sounding like a winner - Zep tones win for my ears
