Weber Mass 200 versus 1950s Tweed Amps * OK or BAD to use???

[212Mavguy]

I'm right with you. Have also used my Mass in church and clubs, as well as home, I love the line out features, had mine done in balanced, trs, and also got the headphone out w/pot, footswitch and wall wart for that. Nice unit, and it does have the speaker motor in it. Have gotten mine hot enough to not be able to comfortably leave my hand on it after an extended session with a 100w SSS clone sitting on 4 at the MV. Like using mine with lots of different wattage amps as well. I started out running it with a fair amount of attenuation, now I try to use a little less amp volume as well as as less attenuation most of the time. YMMV.

I have built up a big iron variation of a BF Champ that Is bulletproof, that amp can run dimed all day long running a 6v6, though, through most 2/12's and 1/15's it's too loud for most clubs dimed, so I have run that one through the Mass and do anything I want. Plus the Mass kills hiss and hum. Sweet.
