Warmest peamp/ amp head

Aguilars can get nice and fat with the "Deep" switch turned on. They're not excessively warm, but they add a nice tube texture without coloring the sound too much or becoming slow or ponderous.

 

just read the Kern thread I started. its says alot.

 

I'd put the SWR IOD along with those other preamps - if you want the all tube sound without a tube poweramp, this is the thing you need. It's the only one with a tube powersection built in.


If you can pony up the dough for a tube poweramp though, go all aguilar!

I liked my demeter. For a very clean sound. In my recent playing I would go aguilar A diferent sound, slightly warmer, maybe

 

I'd also add that with an Eden EQed just right, you can get plenty warmth.

 

LOL @ joker!

What is "warmth" to you anyway? Without having a definition specifically of what it is, I would say that a question such as this is almost like "Which is the best bass?".

I think recording engineers refer to "warmth" as a certain amount of mild distortion and compression, with the amount of bass frequencies having little to do with it. What is warmth to you?
