Got it on the 14th and didn't try it till the 16th and was not impressed!
That was with the Marshall SV20C on the 5 watt setting into a PRS 2X12 cab!
Tried it tonight on the 20 watt setting into the same cab and it Freaking Rocked!
The best thing is that Mrs Zen could not hear it!
Very Impressed! This is an excellent purchase!
I was real close to returning it yesterday!

I’m glad this worked out for you.
I’ve tried attenuators on power-reduced output circuits with much the same effect as you noted. Power reduction usually doesn’t produce the same great tone as an unrestrained output section (not referring to attenuation). It kinda makes sense that an attenuation device would sound better with the full output of the amp.

I had the normal channel (Loudness 2) on 6 and the high treble channel (Loudness 1) on 8 jumped from 1 to 2. I was watching That Pedal Show and they were using the Ironman II with a 1987X Marshall. They started talking about it between the 35 to 40 minute mark(IIRC). I'll link the video. Really makes want a 1987X Marshall again! Yikes!! |

I’ve got a ‘76 1987. I bought it a couple years ago for about what a used 1987x went for. So… no effects loop. But it’s a glorious beast.
I use a Z Air Brake with it.

Glorious Beast!
Sweet!!!
I really need to get lucky and find another 1987X at a decent price. If possible?
That first one I had rocked my world! I also used the Marshall SE 100 with the 1987X.
Fun!
