The other John Browne

Hey there! I'm John Browne – not that John Browne, but yes, that really is my name.

This channel is dedicated to helping you make better gear decisions through deep dive demos, reference-based comparisons and tone experiments. Whether you're into amps, speakers, pedals, or guitars, I aim to deliver the kind of videos I wish I had when I was hunting for gear – the ones that actually help you hear the difference.
To my ears, many gear demos sound great in isolation but lack a meaningful reference point. That’s why I focus on side-by-side comparisons, level-matched tests and consistent setups.
Expect deep dives, blind tests, tone myths explored, and the occasional gear rabbit hole. I’ve got a long list of experiments queued up – and I’m just getting started.
