I bought one of these one time when I needed more power. I returned it because it sounded very sterile . never could it a good sound. Thanks for the video brother. I know a lot of time is invested.
dust on valves/tubes looks so amazing for some reason... it's like a match made in heaven for photo/video aesthetic. You can fall in love wit the first frame...
It makes cooling not work very well on anything and everything, and it can become conductive and leak voltage. It will get into pots and sockets and wear off the tin plating & carbon traces. Dirt is no bueno. My dad's old custom order Blazer was overheating. A new OEM factory radiator, a very extensive douche flush of the total cooling system, and steam cleaning the engine fixed that issue right up. Aluminum oxide does not let the aluminum cool well. Weird, because it is the main ingredient in heat sink paste, but it mixes with the dirt and the radiator stops cooling efficiently. I got lucky and found the Canadian manufacturer who made the original GM Radiators was still making them.
I have owned a Mesa MK5/35 for about six years now. I have only had one issue when about two years ago one of the EL84's started redplating. Even while under warranty it still cost me almost $200.00 to repair. I was thinking of getting a Dual Rec, but after watching all of you Mesa vids I need to decide if it is worth it.
As Manchester England's Roland L. would say, "Hoover it out!". Those Engl amps with the bunch of extra diodes going to the power tubes, often need all new 1N4007s. Ditch all of the 1N4003s & 1N4006s and just put all 1N4007s in 'em.
Good morning from rainy California, as a bit of a tube roller, I'd love for you to put out a Tube Roller's Guide to Ecstasy! I've noticed that you like particular tubes for v1 vs v2 vs phase inverters. My standard MO is to immediately drop a 12ay7 into v1... appreciate the channel, fun to see the tweaker getting some love.
You should really make a video about how to clean your amp from dust. I wanna clean my amps but I am afraid to damage something in the proocess or what I should clean and what should I keep away from.

I was sceptical to the benefits of a new camera for your purpose. But man, the new shots are amazing. Well done.
Wow! I couldn’t afford to retube this monster

MESA Triple Rectum-fryer! 😆
Are you in Mesa mode?? We enjoy the Mesa videos. It is always eye-opening how crapy Mesa really is designed.
Dust does two things well 1. thermal insulation 2. high impedance conductor . Both are not needed in a tube amp . Kyle another on point video.

I'm really enjoying your videos after I watched one to help find a problem with my prs sonzera 20w.
Mesa realized the 1N4007 was not good in the low voltage DC supply. Later designs like Road King and Stiletto used 1N5406 instead.
Great video love your videos and explanation of circuits 😊
Great work as always.
All those 6L6's for the toanzzz man.
150 watts.
@@TheCyberMantis yup, and most people wouldn't need that small dB difference between this and the 100W.
@@David.S. Most people don't even need 100 watts.
Yes, please make the clean your amp video!

Wondering if you have any insight into the quality of Mezzabarba amps…
I think Randall was contacted by the Russian mob and was “told” to make amps that use more tubes!! 😂
It was worth a video!
Dang that’s a lot of tube for certain.
Apparently they’re gonna have Mesa 6l6 tubes on Sweetwater soon.
Easy for you maybe!
