Ngd: 2061x
What an amp. Every single setting on this beast is just incredible.
I am now totally ready to sell my 2203. Will make a bunch of audio and video clips of the amp. It sounds as beautiful as it looks! ![]() Worth every penny. |

Re: Ngd: 2061x
I have one too, and love it as well.
It's so cool that it's so small but sounds like a big beast. And when you link the channels you almost get a three band EQ as the first channels' tone control acts like a treble, the second channels' tone acts like a mid control and the second channels' volume as a bass dial. ![]() Not the same juicy cleans as the 1974X though (have that one too), but channel linking works better and it's alot tighter for heavier things. I really recommend getting hold of a Blackburn Mullard ECC83 for V1 though. Now, I have Mullards throughout, but V1 is the one that made the most improvement. The same goes for the 1974X. A Mullard for V1 and the tremolo improved it vastly. |

Re: Ngd: 2061x
Welcome to the brotherhood of 2061x!
I've posted many demos on this forum. Mine's got the Swank Motee cascade mod and a Master Volume but almost all of my demos are dimed and boosted with a Blackstar HT-Boost. The best tonal improvement you can make without a soldering iron is to boost the front end - I swear by the Blackstar boost (300v true high tension all-valve boost). I've blown two output transformers - the stock OT is weak. Replaced it with a much beefier unit and now the amp growls and punches in the low end. I've metered mine at 112dB through a 4x12.

OT in 1974 is known for blowing. Same thing with 2061? |

Re: Ngd: 2061x
Pretty much. The OT in my 2061X hasn't blown since I bought it about five years ago or so, but the MT blew exactly on the day, one year after I bought it. Have worked fine since then.
I bought my 1974X used. Got it it really cheap with a blown OT. Bought a new one for $75, £45 or €55. I'd consider it being worth it to blow a transformer once a year if that's what it takes to have this tone. Seriously. |
