I have a question...
The louder you turn a tube amp the more saturation/distortion you get, right?
The louder you turn a solid state amp, it still sounds the same just louder?
So with a Hybrid amp with a tube pre amp and solid state power amp, the louder you turn the Volume knob the sound should stay the same unless you turn up the Gain knob?
Is this true? If been looking at amps with attenuators like the Laney Cubs and Ibanez TS etc. I want something that can play a tube sound at bedroom levels and play the same sound at gigging levels. Since I can not pump up my AVT 50 to full volume to compare the sounds (it's too loud to compare anyway) I need a more logical explanation. I haven't playd a gig in years and wil start soon and when I was a kid i never paid attention to what I sounded like, It was just a matter of being loud enough.
So the question is; will my amp sound the same if i crank it up to the max?
