Hey there and thanks in advance:)
I am wanting to re-tube a Traynor YCV 40wr stocked with Sovteks......I like the amp and speaker...but the overall sound is not so dynamic. I am running into a Weber Mass Lite into a power amp and then to the Celestion Vintage 30 so i can crank the tubes at lower volumes but still canna get the dynamics and harmonics i know the Amp is capable of. I have read over many other suggestions on Harmony Central,
I have seen so many diff scenarios (see below) that i am filled with Question.
I am looking to make the Clean channel break up less early then it does which is at about 5...i want to be able to have a louder clean sound before it breaks up...which would be ideal anywhere after 6 or so.
As for the gain Channel it is so bland!!!! I want more dynamics and a less muddy more creamy sound.. from the channel.
I read on Harmony Central that the Bass, Treble and Mid controls actualy work wonders when the amp is re tubed:)
ANY suggestions at all would be apprieciated!!! Cost is not to much of an issue, the amps sound is more impt.

Tube examples i've read of...not tried.
----------------------------------------
Replaced all of the tubes in the amp, going for a NOS Mullard 12AX7 in V1, and NOS GE 12AX7 in V2, a balanced JJ ECC82S in V3, and two JJ 6L6GC's in V4 and V5. I also have a Weber MiniMass attenuator between the output tranny and the speaker.
