Matchless shootout - Phoenix, DC30 & Avenger!!

[@rorymurphy4678]

Would love to hear more of the phoenix, any chance of you doing another demo of the phoenix?

[@crunchtester]

Sorry Rory, the Phoenix is sold.

[@rorymurphy4678]

crunchtester No prob, its hard to choose which matchless to go for! Thanks for your reply

[@breathtimebreath4934]

LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!!

[@abshinasi4581]

Thanks for the video man!

[@crunchtester]

+AB Shinasi You`re welcome!

Is it me or do you have the speaker phase different on some of the amps. I know there is some phasing from the guy moving the camera/mic... but I am hearing phase differences.

[@crunchtester]

No, speaker phase is correct.

[@breathtimebreath4934]

Phoenix!!!!!!!

[@drpicklo]

What are your settings for the DC30? Stock speakers?

[@crunchtester]

Don`t remember the settings. Speakers are stock (Matchless modded Celestion G12M & G12H).

[@WizLaudan73]

I think the phoenix is my fav. its hard to get a real feel for the sound on a video

[@breathtimebreath4934]

I love my Avenger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My Avenger thru Matchless 210 = tone style unlimited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tho my avenger sounds the best dialed in with my matchless 21012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They all sound good. But hard to tell which is the amp that you are switching to. You switch amps too quickly and erratically. Tune your guitar better.

[@crunchtester]

Just watch/pay attention to the text in the video. Shouldn`t be to hard to understand which amp we`re playing through. Guitar is perfectly tuned. Use headphones for best possible sound quality. Used a Zoom Q3 for recording. Not the best for demoing amplifiers, but not the worst either.

[@johnadams9044]

Avenger way too boomy and boxy sounding. It has the edge on pure grunge but little else. For 'quality sound' and tone, the DC30 shines best and has best overall sound.

[@crunchtester]

Avenger is everything but boxy and boomy sounding imo. But sound is a very personal thing!

[@breathtimebreath4934]

LOVE THE AVENGER!!!!!!!

All that money and you can't buy a mic

[@crunchtester]

Yes I can sunshine.

[@cardbored_]

crunchtester but will you, that is the question.

[@crunchtester]

I use a Zoom Q3 recorder which is considered to have fairly good mics. The Zoom is especially nice to record the sound in the room, which imo is more important in a demo meant to show an amps qualities than a perfect sound worked on in a computer with all kinds of programs and tools. This is how I see it. Like it or not, and if not - find another demo to watch. Simple as that. So the answer to your question is: no, I`m not gonna buy a mic.

crunchtester - I think what he was trying to say is only an ass bag would record three high end amps with a cheap piece of shit zoom As a professional engineer, I'm going to have to agree
