Rogue Owners Unite

Yea, Winoguy17, that's a good question. At first I was keeping the gain at its lowest setting in order to get a little more travel out of the volume knob, but at times it sounded like the bass was a little bloated, or possibly just over-accentuated, at lower volumes this way, so I've been leaving the gain at dead even instead. I didn't test this one out too critically, and it was fairly early on and very impressionistic (besides just not making a whole lot of sense, logically), but I'd be interested to hear whether anyone else has found that the gain setting has an effect on the overall balance of the sound. (That said, the system has been changing a lot lately, so my impressionistic read on this one could have actually been attributable to a whole host of other variables as well).

Buckingham, regarding the "sandbox" fix for a humming power supply, that one was officially dreampt up and/or approved by the guys at Rogue. It might be worth giving them a call to see what their take on it is, but I believe that they have actually encouraged folks to do it in the past, in which case it may not affect the warranty at all. Worth asking, I guess.

Two questions:
1-Can I change the gain setting on the Rogue Tempest Magnum?
2- If Yes then how?

I own m-120s and added a used 99 about 9 months ago. I wasn't particularly fond of the 99 at first. Mark at Rogue recommended changing the Penta Labs 6sn7s for the NOS Russians. That did it. Much better, I then moved to the 120's, I added Electro Harmonix 6550's and my next addition is a set of Mullard cv4004 (12ax7)'s . It go a bit better. The best tweak so far has been the replacement of the stock power cords to Virtual Dynamics power3's. Whoa !

Mark is now drilling holes in the power supplies and inc.a cork with them.The sand is up to you.
It wont void the warranty.Ask him if ya dont believe me.Re-sale shouldnt be a problem.Unless the buyer doesnt want a cheap tweak included!!
