I've got one of these BAMFs due to arrive next week:

Anyone have experience with it? Some huge potential for killer sound 'sperimentation w/application flexibility.

Apparently with a compatible, plug-in input transformer they have enough gain for ribbon microphones...and distortion character that sounds killer as either PA or instrument amplifier.

Oh hell yes. Do report when it arrives.

This thing is killer. Using it with my main bassrig box; 8ohm aluminum cone 15" driver in a ported enclosure.
It makes a prime synth amp due to the lone line-level RCA input, which is bussed directly to the Master Volume & Tone Stack, feeding the power amp.

With an appropriate input transformer (I only have a Peerless 4665...not complaining, it's prob the best of its kind) driving one of the 4 XLR inputs, it accepts any type of Dynamic mic with plenty of gain and tone nothing short of magnificent. Both clean and driven. Beatboxing sounds great, especially driven.

Have not yet connected to the MPC and any drum machines, but I already know it kicks ass with them. What a badass piece of kit.

Sweet

That faceplate.

So I'm thinking this is prime for use in a drone/ambient/noise rig.

I have a 3ch Realistic mixer from the 80s that will make a good gatekeeper for the RCA input.
Different pedals in each channel; fuzz, delay, parametric (and/or graphic) eq, bringing them in/out via faders.
Just need to figure out which source I want to use. iPad seems like the winner here...but I also have an original Gameboy...

I'll also use a dynamic microphone with a killswitch (also have a Realistic that fits this description) to create some blooming feedback and saturate the Peerless transformers.

It'll be a mean, green, face-melting machine


Edit: I'm saying this in future-tense because I need to make a bunch of patch cables and get everything in one place
