My cousin's band (Frown Pow'r, check them out) plays Sunn amps exclusively. He has a stack that's as tall as he is, and the Sceptre head. I think he said the cab has like 6 12" speakers in it. That thing is crazy loud!

I has this same amp, that I ran two different Sunn cabinets with. One was a 18" JBL and a horn, the other was a 6x10" in a "V" cab. HUGE sound. Yeah, I had the ol' Big Muff, Morely, etc. And yeah, that thing would shock the shit out me, now and again.

Pretty much ANY tube amp can get really nice saturation. You wanna hear it wail, turn the volume on your guitar all of the way up. An attenuator is a device that goes between the amp head and the speaker. They let you drive the amp as hard as you want without having to worry about volume, it turns down the volume of the speaker.
They all look different, mine is a Weber. Check out my video of my Solarus, I play stoner metal through it with no effects besides compression.

@MrMuddyBleach Oh and to anyone who read that I put it on 10, to give you an idea of how loud it was, the strings on my acoustic sitting across from it all started to vibrate from the pure wall of sound that was coming out.
Love this amp and it gets LOUD as hell, but sorry to say it stays clean (clean enough for me atleast)
-
@briel What is an attenuator and what does it look like? Is it basically the same as installing a master volume control?
I have this same amp and I put it on the full all out 10 (!!!!!!!!) and it shook my bedroom walls and my windows.....but I heard no crazy distortion like everybody rants and raves about for Sunn amps, it stayed relatively clean. I meen I definitely don't HATE that it stays clean but I mean how do you get it to distort?
-
You did a real puss job of demoing this amp. Why they hell did you put a distortion pedal on an amp that has immaculate distortion if you just TURN IT UP. No, 2 is not loud enough to drive it hard. If your position is that you want to be able to have distortion at bedroom levels... Get an attenuator!!!

The amps true distortion is way better than a big muff. Fuck the big muff.. Turn that puppy up and jam.
-
stop to talk and play please.

You know...I really can't stop saying "the cat's ass" now.

I gotta one up ya. I met this guy at a party that wanted to jam, my lucky number is 23. His address was 2323. Which was nuts. I walk into his place, he's got this same strap on his guitar which I had on mine at the time and... the ultimate kicker.. on his favorite guitar, he put the same goddam obscure Glassjaw sticker I have on my favorite guitar I never take out. We've been close friends for years now. Whats with this strap?? Ty...
