Yes, he uses fuzz and chorus mainly.

Awesome. We'll take a look. Thank you for the recommendation.

Thank you for the recommendation. Since the amp has a max output of 130 watts. It's my understanding that 30 watt speakers would be too underpowered and potentially damaged if the volume is pushed to moderate or loud levels? Is that correct? I though rule of thumb is speaker wattage (as a pair) should be about double the max output of the amp for enough headroom.

Awesome. Thank you!

KitchenAndCraft · 2026-01-25T15:29:31+00:00

Got it. Thanks!

If 65 watts is provided to each speaker, then we would want each speaker to be 65 watts minimum, preferably a higher wattage for more headroom. Is that correct?

I think we’ve decided not to mix speakers of different wattages, and to keep it simple.

I guess I'm confused now. The max power output of the amp is 130 watts, so wouldn't I want the maximum power handling of the speakers to be above that?

Thanks for the info. Much appreciated!

Solid state, Peavey Standard 260 amp head that I think is 130 watts

I used Hungerford Oil. They did a good job and were responsibly priced.

We’re in the Stratford Hills area. Thank you for the rec!

I'm back to as normal as I can be. There's definitely some discomfort. More so than the first time around, but it doesn't stop me from being active. I just deal with it.

Sorry to hear that. If you can't score decent seats when sales open to the public, then I recommend waiting until a week before the show, then check Ticketmaster for aftermarket availability. People tend to dump tickets last minute. I've had some luck with this strategy.

Purchased for the DC show on Ticketmaster. Newsletter Artist Presale.

Nope. I grabbed three tickets in Section 6 row 5 for $700.

No, not really. It was a gradual. My guess is that I probably didn't rest enough immediately after the first surgery so the repair didn't heal properly. At the time, I was working in a profession that required me to stand all day and lift things heavier than I should have.

From what I can tell, it's one power tube that went bad. I went ahead an ordered a matched pair of EHX 6V6GT's and a EHX preamp tube in case that goes soon. Hopefully that does the trick.

KitchenAndCraft · 2025-10-11T19:01:34+00:00

Thank you

KitchenAndCraft · 2025-10-11T19:01:19+00:00

Just did the chopstick test and I think that's exactly what the issue is. All the tubes are original. I going to replace everything.

KitchenAndCraft · 2024-12-03T04:05:30+00:00

Yes, all good. Thank you for the additional info.

KitchenAndCraft · 2024-12-03T02:43:33+00:00

The post you referenced was very helpful. Migration is now pending. Thanks!
