The band necrophagıst use ENGL powerballs. Before you have a lısten they are a tech-death band. I absolutely love their tone, as i like to describe it liquid gain!

www.necrophagist.de check out the song stabwound.

Tim,

I have an Engl SE (the midi head), and it is absolutely awesome. I A/B'd it with my friends JCM800 into a Bogner 4x12, and it got VERY close using the crunch channel. The lead channels are ultra heavy and can get a great saturated, singing, sizzling fat lead tone too. Just an overall amazing amp! Just so you know what I'm comparing it too, I have a Diezel Herbert and VH4.

HTH,

Angus

Necrophagist use Engl rack stuff, it's in the gear FAQ of their forum... (it's a sticky at the top)

I have always loved ENGL amps - they have a great tone that really penetrates well. At Guitar shows you can hear their tone a mile off.

The Scorpions use them now and then as well as Ritchie Blackmore

Even Geoprge Lynch used to use them for a while
