It's a Sorado which according to http://www.richbriere.com/Sunn_Shack_2.htm is basically a 200s. It says your Spectrum II is more like a 100s. They are both really similar but I think the Sorado was more for bass and the Spectrum II was more for guitar.

LETS KEEP THE SUNN AMP LOVE+CONFUSION GOING!!

Here's my Sunn 190L!



Just bought it from rosscanyonsofstatic last weekend!

I think I posted in here somewhere but I can't find it lol.

More Sunn love! 80s Sunn Enforcer and 70s Sunn 4x12. Brings the fuzzed out doom without any pedals! Orange Rockerverb 100 and PPC412. Twins of Evil. Also, my Sunn Beta Lead 2x12 combo for home jamming! Loudest bedroom amp on the planet! I love my amps!

You're doing it right.

Hey warwick, didn't you have an Ampeg 8x10 or something? Whatever happened to that?

I don't know how to tell you I love you strong enough on the internet, so just understand the emotion is there.

Not mine.

I use it to rehearse with,...but since the owner doesn't want it leaving the rehearsal space I don't get to gig or travel with it.

Ahh I see. Oh yeah, do you mind sharing what mic you use for bass?

By the way, I like the super-luxurious rolling chair

Sure;

Shure Beta 98s on the Bass and Guitar cabs.

The Sunn amps all sound different - we have several different eras represented here. My Enforcer is super gnarly sounding, similar to a Matamp with a natural fuzz tone. Sounds nothing like they advertised it be, thus why in 1984 they were such failures - nobody wanted that tone in those days! Was supposed to have one channel that sounded like a Marshall JCM and the other like a Fender Twin and accomplishes neither very well. It sounds more like a Matamp GTO. They made less than 150 of them over a 4 year period and believe me, I want another! Here is kind of a poor representation of the tone - we were testing an iphone video and got a few seconds of random crap playing. Guitar is out of tune as hell and the volume is way down, needs that volume up around 7 to really cook those tubes. NO pedals here and tuned to drop C.

Its really bassy. My Orange is really dark but has a lot more mids and is a bit more modern sounding, although I do get killer fuzzed out tone at about 8!

My Spectrum II had amazing clean tones up to about noon where it starts getting more and more aggressive baking tube breakup up to about 3 o'clock. I'm scared to push it further.

Spectrum II has 2 KT88 power tubes and puts out about 50 watts.

Nice mics! I use a v1 CAD E-100 on bass cabs with great success.

My Coliseum 880 is a raging wooly beast, and yet, I often forget it's solid state. The distortion switch enters it into trashy hardcore punk territory even when played through 15"s.

Basically, there's a different Sunn for every kind of player. Even you, Tuffteef!
