Blackstar HT5TH Limited Edition 2x10 Combo Amp There other combo has a 12" speaker, this one has 2x10s in it, and is a limited run.

LarryUK Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Mmm. A perfect example of having no control over his vibrato. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoreyT Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 Looks like Sweetwater has these too, as well as other places online. Reviews do look good for it, and the 2x10s puts out more than a single 12 like I am running in my new Orange cabinet I got for the head. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/HT5TH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krock Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I've never been a fan of NStuff's vids, think its because usually they just use the jazz player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan H Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I've never been a fan of NStuff's vids, think its because usually they just use the jazz player And All their demoers ever play is lead, and it's always some kind of jazz or jazz-infused blues. Need some other styles in there, as well as some rhythm playing. -Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badbluesplayer Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 It sounds really good. I wonder how they get 5 watts out of a 12ax7 power tube, though. It surely can't be the same 5 watts you get out of a 6V6, no? I'm not a fan of using a lot of speaker on a small amp. I like small speakers on small amps. Oddly enough, to my ear, amps sound small and weak when they have too much speaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be 100% wrong on this as I know nothing of amp wiring etc. But I thought he switched which type of tube was in the pre-amp and which was in the power amp in the demo.

I thought he said ECC83 in the power tube too tho. Oh well,, anyway,, that's pretty nice sounding rig. If I was in the market for a low watt combo, that would prolly top the list.
