My question is..I currently have a Crest Ca6 and a Demeter VTB201s....is the Aguilar going to blow me away compared to my current situation, or will I hardly notice? Has anybody experienced both of these amps? Or would I be better off keeping the Crest and finding and aguilar preamp to team with it? |
well, unfortunately, the ag500, which you probably played is nothing like the animal that is the 750.
but that's a tough call,
the crest sleds, namely the ca9, are the closest many have said that does the aguilar mosfet fed power and kick. but, the preamp sections are quite different. your demeter is sweet and very clear. the aguilar section has that clarity, but also adds that grind and grunt that just shouts "aguilar" to me. so if you want a tougher more hard rockin' kind of tone, the 750 could be a nice complement to your cleaner dem/crest rig.
