It's all good, just letting you know. BTW have you been doing anymore mods to the AVT?

Right now I have a BBE 482i rack mount Sonic maximizer,EH Holy Grail,Boss DD-5 delay in the loop. The reverb tank is unplugged and the knob is set at 4. Amp is running on the clean channel with a Boss NS-2,EH Metal Muff,Boss CE-3, and modded Boss GE-7 in front. With all of those running it sounds like I'm pushing it really hard. It sits on a stock 1960a JCM900 lead.
I also have a very similar rig (sonic maximizer in the loop and Boss in the front), I have had no problems. Chances are you are golden.

I use a 2 band EQ in the rack to get the needed mids. TBH I actually have been scooping the mids recently. On the clean it doesn't sound that great with mids, it actually distorts in a weird way.
