Fucking A. I've only heard a Klipp in person once. It was in conjunction with several other very loud amps. Agreed with Geoff on the nut-crushing.

What do you think of those speakers, the K100s and T100s?

The T100 has been my go to speaker for many years. It sounds awesome with pretty much any amp I've ran it with. My speedtwin might sound better with V30s but I'm not all that bothered about using that amp much. The K100 is a bit more bass heavy than the T100 and it may have slightly more top too but that could just be because its in a smaller enclosure which is usually a bit brighter. All in all both great speakers although the K100 is a bitch to find in 16ohm. I originally was going to get my 412 loaded with Ts in the top and K's in the bottom but that would only have been possible if I went with an 8 ohm cab and I also had a 1960 at the time wired at 16ohm and you might as well run a full stack if you have the option to!

I had an hour to kill on saturday while waiting for some friends to turn up so I went to our room and tried a few dirt pedals into the superbass.

Joyo US Dream - My general go to dirt as you can't really set it badly and it works with most arrangements. Sort of sounds like how you always want an 800 to sound with the superbass.

Boss HM-2 - A bitch to dial in but once I found the sweet spot it was awesome. Really lacks output though and I have to run the level at 3 o'clock just to hit unity gain as the D-Activators in my DT700 are pretty hot :lol: It isn't as high gain as I thought it would be but it makes for a fucking awesome sludge/filth tone. May try stacking it with the Joyo as a flavour enhancer.

Boss MT-2 - sounded like a bag of dicks.

The EQ on the HM-2 is really fucking wonky. It's two dual concentric bands, according to our Mr. Chris. I forget what frequencies- obviously, the "highs" are mids- and it is not the easiest thing to dial in because of this. I don't use mine much, but I do remember it lacking output, this is true. (My OCD is a monster in this regard; even with singles into an AC30 I find myself setting the level below noon live.) I do find the HM-2 to have a stupendously useless amount of gain, at least for my porpoises, though. Especially on bass, feeding it a Jazz with (real, active) EMGs. Not a pleasant sounding pedal at all, but very cool.

I remember hearing some grind dudes running an MT-2 into a 4-input non-master Marshall once, and that was pretty much my assessment of it, too. :lol:
