Marshall MG10G 10W Electric Guitar Combo Amplifier

Product Information

Peak Power tells you how much absolute maximum power the amplifier can handle in short bursts without blowing. This time is usually only a split second. So, we need to be careful about the speaker rating, amplifier rating, speaker efficiency, and impedance. When buying the best practice amp, a lot of the considerations should be the same as purchasing any guitar amp. You want great sound, a good price, and versatile connectivity. With a practice amp, you will likely want different tones for different situations, and you may also want to record your ideas from home, so it’s important to ensure the amp you choose has everything you need. How big should my practice amp be? On the rear, you'll find a USB connector — the THR10 II is also a class-compliant stereo USB audio interface. Power was then measured with a 3 dB attenuator in line which properly terminated the signal generator with the generator set to +13 dBm.

When the amp is turned really loud, solid-state can produce usable sound only for short bursts and sometimes they start to clip and sound bad pretty easily. This amplifier is only suitable for electric guitars. For guitarists wanting a little more power, the 15W Electric Guitar Amp by Gear4music is an ideal option. For bassists, the 15W Electric Bass Amp by Gear4music provides equally comprehensive performance and is optimised for bass frequencies. Similarly, for acoustic guitarists, the 15W Acoustic Guitar Amp by Gear4music is better suited to the harmonic overtones more prominent from acoustic guitars. Find out moreA watt is a unit of power. The more watts an amp has, the more powerful it is. There is a relationship between an increase in power (watts) and an increase in volume. So does that mean a 100W amp will automatically be louder than a 10W amp? Not exactly. Gain: 26 to 28dB, with +/- 1dB gain flatness over the range 1.8-30MHz. This is shown in the following image. No amp debate would be complete without the tube vs solid state argument. However, in this situation, solid-state amps are going to take the majority of the plaudits as they give you the same sound regardless of volume. They’re also cheaper, so you’re more likely to see additional features like onboard effects, Bluetooth, and recording outs that will help augment your practice regimen.

Sure, it looks kind of like a jewellery case, but you won’t find a dancing ballerina under the hood; no, just a whole lot of smart digital processing technology that endows the Adio Air GT with 11 distinct amp voices, allowing you to park yourself anywhere on the tone spectrum between gin-clear and crystal cleans to high-gain chug. Sure, we hear you; how can two 3” speakers chug? Well, as with the THR10II, the quality and depth of sound really is impressive. Volts are the measurement used to determine how much force is needed to cause the electric current to flow. In keeping with the earlier example, you could think of volts as the water pressure in the hosepipe, which makes the water flow. Watts Treble- Treble is your high-end ‘sparkle’. If darker tones are your thing, keep this control relatively low. If you want shimmering high-end then a higher setting will allow you to access this with ease.

That said, more and more tube amps are starting to come with power attenuation options, which allow you to get that cranked tube tone at lower volumes. For tube-tone enthusiasts who can’t do without the real thing, this gives you a great option to use an amp with a similar response to that of the one in your full-size rig. First and foremost, we are guitar players, and we want other guitarists to find the right product for them. So we take into careful consideration everything from budget to feature set, ease of use and durability to come up with a list of what we can proudly say are the best practice amps on the market right now. The Catalyst series offers a more simplistic, traditional take on the ever-popular modeling amp, reminiscent of the Boss Katana series. The Catalyst's amp tones sound spectacular – which is all down to the HX technology that this amp borrows from the Helix range. There are six separate amp models which span from super clean to ultra-dirty, which makes the Catalyst an impressively versatile piece of kit. The 18 other effects, as well as six separate types of reverb, help to bring these tones to life even further – and for the money, the amount of choice you have is incredible.

Specifications

If you're after an amp that sounds big, then speaker size and cabinet size are definitely things you'll need to consider. A larger speaker has better bass and low-end response, and if it's in a larger cabinet, you'll receive more resonance and bass response from that. Geoff also reduced the drive from 13mW to 7mW, producing 6W PEP output; this image is shown below. Now IMD3 improves to -32dB and IMD5 improves to -48dB. With 30 amp models and 40 effects onboard, the Spark is a catalog of great tones - and with 10,000+ more tones on the online library, you’ve got plenty of options. There’s Bluetooth connectivity to stream music, as well as ⅛” Aux and headphone inputs. You’ve got USB inputs and outputs too, which enable you to use your Spark as an audio interface for when you need to capture that next great idea. Here at Guitar World, we are experts in our field, with many years of playing and product testing between us. We live and breathe everything guitar related, and we draw on this knowledge and experience of using products in live, recording and rehearsal scenarios when selecting the products for our guides.

Don’t be fooled by their simplicity, this series of amps delivers a range of classic and modern tones, with all the features you need from a practice amp and so much more. All the amps in this range are fitted with an emulated headphone output to make silent practice easier than ever. Whether you’re practicing in a garage or performing on stage, these amps are sure to look great with their gold piping and gold metal finish. With its finely tuned stereo speaker system, the DUAL CUBE LX produces full, punchy guitar tones that belie the amp’s small footprint. Choose from eight versatile amp types, all with natural feel and organic response honed with decades of BOSS amp development. Whatever your style or skill level, you’ll find expressive sounds to build techniques and deliver inspired performances. There’s also a dedicated mic preamp type, allowing you to use the amp as a portable vocal PA system. Onboard Boss Effects Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided. Low Pass Filters should always be used following any amplifier, even a linear. Filtering however, is less critical than it would be on non-linear amplifiers. If you compare different amps with different speakers and power(watts), an accurate comparison could be hard. The reason for that is the impedance(how much objects (speakers) resistance the electricity) that varies between different speakers. And there are plenty of different speakers available, that’s why the comparison is hard and more watts doesn’t necessarily mean more loudness.It’s basically Boss’s much-loved Katana amp in a set of headphones. You get a wireless adaptor, connect your phone to the bundled Tone Studio app and get going. There is lots to explore. Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty Watts represent the amount of energy produced by the amps and volts working together. Multiplying amps (water volume) by volts (water pressure) gives you the wattage (the resulting power or energy). A water wheel would turn faster and longer, generating more energy if The app offers you greater control over the effects, though, as well as providing a choice of four appropriate cabinet emulations per amplifier type. In addition it allows access to an internal gate and compressor and allows more alternative reverb types to be selected (Room, Hall, Plate or Spring). The Plate sounds beautifully rich and 'three-dimensional'. Other app features include setting the guitar DI mode as dry or with effects, choosing an EQ profile for the auxiliary audio input, and giving an indication of the battery's current charge level. Any of the app-only options, including the three amp variants, can be stored as presets in the THR10 II, so you only need to revisit the app when creating new presets that require these deeper functions. The Sound Note : When you test amps, with some amps the loudness increases the most with the first quarter of the volume knob. Some manufacturers do this to make the amp seem louder when they are tested in a guitar store.
