  • What’s the min cab configuration. I have a 500 and they are rated for 500w I’ll have to get a different configuration

  • Dino is the man but when he does these demos all he does is pop slap and pluck.Thats great but that’s not everyone’s primary playing style. I’m primarily a pick player. I want to hear a tone with a pick. He should change it up. Even play with his fingers more. This pop n slap doesn’t give you a full demonstration of the tone capability. A lot of us are buying these products blindly cause music stores don’t carry the stuff. I want to hear the durability of the amp. Most people are in bands and jam. We’re not poppin and slapping 90% of the time. It’s almost like pop n slap should be the last demo or the least technique that he should do in these vids. These vids really aren’t all that helpful sometimes. When he’s poppin and slapping you’re hearin a lot of muting.how are we supposed to hear the resonating and the acoustics. How we supposed to hear the full capability of the mids,treble,bass etc?

  • So he says 800 watts at 4 ohms and 500 watts at 8ohms……but in another video Dino Monoxelos does he says this same head is 800 watts at 4 ohms and only 400 watts at 8 ohms.   So which is it?  Here's a link to his other video that contradicts what he says here.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chn7Z_xEKIQ&t=66s    This matters when you're trying to get the right cab….plenty of cabs are maxed at 400 watts/8 ohms……so that extra 100 watts he's claiming here is important.
