Snowblinder/Johnny, are the two of you up on this? -http://www.eminence.com/speakers/speaker-detail/?model=ReignmakerphpBB [media]

Borderline painfully loud.Tony, have you tried cabinets with less efficient speakers? It might be hard to find a 1x12 scenario that will handle the power and also not be efficient - but 2x12 should be doable. My graphics-only OR120 is vastly different in terms of volume with an efficient 4x12 (Altec 417 - 100dB) than an inefficient 4x12 (Celestion G12M70 - 97dB). I haven't played it through an inefficient 2x12, but I'd assume it would be noticeable. Just a thought.

Dear Dr. Balls:I remember you posting a while back about doing a limited-batch run of delay pedals with an extra footswitch for self-oscillation. Is there a chance you have any left in stock or wouldn't mind building another order, and also add a jack for an expression pedal to control the time knob?Best,Kazoozak

Yeah, I've heard a tone of great sounding, faux-analog delays with the PT2399 chip. Do it, Zooks.

I think there are also designs that use larger numbers of shorter-delay BBD chips, giving you more signal degradation (potentially desirable). So, 4 MN3208s instead of 2 MN3005s. I think the Maxon one uses 8 chips.

With delays it all comes down to chipsets used and analog vs digital. Ive made a few with MN3005 Analog chipsets but only because i got some legit ones in a trade. Those chips are very expensive and/or fake when you find them for sale. There are some decent analog replacements for that, or there's also a digital option that sounds very analog. Id probably suggest the digital option just because they sound great, theres a large range of delay times, and they're cheap and simple.
