NAD: Dunwich + Emperor = Di¢ksplosion!
Posted: Mon Apr 09, 2012 2:04 am
Dunwich hath arrived and goddamn was it worth the wait! Nick absolutely killed it with this thing, 2xKT88, a perfect pedal amp, simple control layout but everything interacts to give wide variety of sounds. I've yet to find a pedal that doesn't rip through this thing after you dial it in as needed. Also runs quiet as a mouse, literally zero noise from this, thanks Nick, you fucking rule! Some quick specs and pics:
-2xKT88, 70-80W? Gets loud as shit but has a wide volume range with the gain/master where it sounds good so you can realistically use it at home without noise complaints.
-Pseudo-2 channel design, one low gain and super clean, the other higher gain, nothing crazy, capable of clean through some incredibly mean clipped tones.
-6 position Dual-FAC control
-Baxandall EQ with added Mid Shift knobs (insane amount of variety with this EQ makes pairing and dialing it in with every pedal I've tried (bunches!) a breeze.
-Concentric gain knob to match channel volumes
-master volume
-Mode control-changes the character of the EF86 drive tube from Pentode to Triode and anywhere between. Adjusts the character of the amp dramatically.
-Feedback-originally a simple presence control, not sure how the design ended up but it's far more useful than just adding the brights like your standard presence feature.
-Pentode and Ultra Linear power modes
-2 Button footswitch-one switches between channels, the other blends the channels.
-2 Speaker Outs with selectable 4, 8, 16 ohm settings
-Digital Bias Meter-so cool!
-Custom Emperor constructed headshell
