    I use a Crown Powertech 3 to power my Trace E. GPX-12 pre.
    I have had clipping problems once and a while.Usually toward the end of the night when everyones stage volume seems to mysteriously creep up. :eyebrow: But even when it does,my gain is still on or around 2.Maybe 2.5,but anything louder than that and the plaster starts falling off the walls!
    I play pretty agressive(fingers only)but we only do party rock material,so it's not like I'm thrashing out the heavy distorted metal.I run the amp Bridged mono for a 410 and a 215 cabinet.
    Yea I know thats pretty huge,but I stand 6'5" and I like the highs to be a little closer to my ears.
    Does anyone else use a Crown with their pre-amp?
    Any tips would be appreciated.
    I am thinking of switching to an Eden WP 100.
    Thanks.
