    Mesa Powerhouse 1000/1200

    Hello fellow bassists! I recently blown upper left 10" speaker and I cannot get it out of the cabinet. I've unscrewed it but it still wont go out. Any clues how to do that without hurting the cabinet?

    Mesa/Boogie Titan V12 megathread!

    I'm not 100% sure - but as I've spoken with my local repair guy, he told me that this amp has a really really complicated schematic & that the tubes "drive" directly into MOSFET-s (literally - directly). I'm not an electrician so I wouldn't know the details.

    Of course it has effect on clean signal too... I wouldn't change the types of tubes if it were me. As i've checked the signal path --> preamp section of TITAN has a different schematic than other amps. If I am not mistaken, the signal goes directly from preamp tubes to MOSFET-s so there is a big...

    Oh course it has effect on the sound of OD, but I recommend to avoid swaping them if everything sound fine. Preamp tubes are longlasting and don't burn out so quickly as power amp tubes. They can last for years, if not decades.

    Mesa Boogie Powerhouse 1000 - too heavy or worth its weight in gold?

    I've just bought a used PH1000 yesterday... It sounds freaking amazing. I'm gonna test it out on todays open air gig on a huge stage. It will probably smile during the whole gig :)

    I just wanted to edit the post... Really contact them first. As I remember they did some more upgrades. I've searched thru my email... This were my problems : Your main problem was a shorted MOSFET (output) transistor. We also performed several updates for future reliability. COMPLAINT...

    No, mine was broke in a different way. When I switched it on and turned it up and played itm it distorted after 2 seconds of playing and then faded out in another 2 seconds and then it would switch itself into some kind of standby / power failure mode. The second fail was similiar but now it...

    In my situation / problem nothing but shipping, which is around 300€ (euros). As i've spoken with guys at Mesa, the failure happened due to some design fail (overheating etc.) which was fixed in later revisions. I drive my Mesa really hard - I tour on big stages using 8x10 cab really really...

    Hi to all of you! I am a Titan owner for the last 7 years or so and I had problems with the amp in the past. I have a revision 1 which had some design fails and it broke in 2012. I've sent it to repairs to California (I live in Europe, Slovenia) and they repaired it. The amp section (MOSFETS)...

    No ... i have a newer one (silverfaced) in 6 HE rack. It is not overheating... Output tone is rather distorted, has no power and internal protector keeps kicking in after 5 second of tone. :ninja::help: I contacted regional mesa distributor and i've arranged a service for my head. I hope...

    Hi fellow TITAN lovers ... I've recently bought used Big block TITAN V12 (in mint condition). It was working great for about 10 gigs (2 months), and then it failed. Last weekend i had a gig. I've connected TITAN to a box (AMPEG 8x10 -classic). It was working great for about 20 minutes or so...
