This egnater lark is intrigueing. Your descriptions of the sound got my interest

How would you compare it to an uberschall (possibly my next purchase unless I find something better) and is there a 100W version?

They do an 100w model that holds 3 modules instead of 2, and is $3000. But i think they've only got like 3 or 4 left now and are just making the 50w ones after that because no one really orders them. The 50w is plenty loud though, my last amp was a 5150 II and it's keeping up. Master on half on the module, master volume on the amp on half too, perfect band practice level!

I've never played through an uberschall, but i'm sure if you asked them, they'd make you a module based on it. And they do the other high gain modules EG 3/4, EG5, SL2, Erect, MHG (modern high gain)

Well, I dont really specifically want an uberschall. But for my next amp I was looking at that, herbert, Sig-x, lots of heads that are at least as pricey as this egnater lark, and it sounds like they're getting something right, and are worth looking into.

Can you get new modules sperately if you change your mind, like an RM100?

Looked at the website.

I now have a hard on for these things

And I just bought a powerball!! (thats great, but.....MORE!!!)

what tubes do you have in that bad boy? I can't quite see from the pics

AdamB · « **Reply #34 on:** March 05, 2008, 09:51:21 PM »

Yes, you can buy modules seperatly, ($395 each) they're building a new thing called an E2 that will be available in July, that goes in via the midi through at the back, and can hold 2 more modules. 8 CHANNELS!!!!

I have JJ 6L6 tubes in the poweramp and all EH pre amp tubes

Bruce egnater sold the idea to randall!

You can put the Randall modules in the Egnater and vise vera although i think only 1 of the 2 channels works when you do this

Hmm, well you guys know that I am not the kinda guy who settles on one rig for good, but regarding channels, I have changed a lot.

Now I really need ONE good sound from an amp and do the rest with my guitar. It has changed a lot for me, I used to do a lot of tap dancing, I mean A LOT. Now the focus of my mind while I am playing has shifted from the floor to the guitar, playing dynamics, pickups, volumes, tones, this is where I get it done now.

I gotta say I never experienced this minimalism before, but it's a relief, I can play up much more freely and inspired, driven by this "new" approach. You need a very dynamic and transparent amp, maybe an overdrive/boost for that little extra here and there, and off you go.

Might as well be I am only going through this because I am in denial that I cancelled my MOD50 order though :roll:

I'm gassing pretty hard for one of these now.

The wait is no trouble to me (I has powerball)

Awesome.
First I've heard of these, the idea of changing modules in the amp is fantastic. Just got a new awesome Painkiller and I need one of these to go with it.
