Mesa Boogie Quad preamp and 2:50 poweramp! Best deal of the century!!

What a coincidence I was seeing things about this preamp and boom! I'm searching for one of these for me.

What did it cost ?..... the Preamp alone ?

Channel 1 is mark 2c channel 2 is mark 3 main features you play multi channels at once switchable eqs reverb and a reverb boost.... Its a beast .... Purchased mine in 80s and its a still going strong....

Nice. How dix you get the stéréo signal (Relay /écho) ?

How much did you pay for the Quad?

Great find. Let me know if you winding up wanting to sell it for whatever reason soon. Can make you a great offer and nice profit.

I am really interested to hear how the Quad would sound running into the Mark's power amp vs. the Mark IV standalone. That happens to be the setup I am looking to try to do myself.

Oh my. Love it, and finally a nice demo with strat, thank you!

I think you have both EQ active instead of just one? :)

Nice video man, thanks for sharing... how do you connect the power amp to the Torpedo ? I mean, this is a stereo poweramp suposed to work better with the two channels... but I guess you connected only one channel to the Torpedo. How did you deal with that without damaging one of the channels (the unused one) of the power amp ?

I used to gig the Quad into 2 Mesa Studio.22+ combo amps by going into the effects-in on the combos, thereby bypassing the combo preamps, just using their power amps and speakers. If the Quad went down (it NEVER did because Mesa builds everything like a tank) I still could've played through the combos preamps.
I split the combos on stage to spread the sound. I positioned the amps differently depending upon the gig: sometimes wide on stage, sometimes at 90 degree angles. The tones were always glorious.

Very nice :)). Did you use 6L6 or EL34?

i had one a long time ago, wish i never got rid of it, to me it sounds better than the triaxis

Hey man, great demonstration. What does the Stereo 2 Fifth do? Is it a necessary component to connect the amp to the speakers?
