Howdy, everyone.
I'm getting ready to get a new amp and was wondering if I could get some advice and some questions answered about the differences between the old HT5 and the HT5R since I am unable to test them both myself.
1) The only differences between these is reverb feature and speaker size, right? I heard rumors that actually the older HT5 sounds better than the HT5R because they changed something or other. Any sense in these?
2) How good are these amps for metal? I can get Iron Maiden, Metallica, and Megadeth out of this right? If not just the amp, will a overdrive or metal distortion get it there pretty easily? (Not a necessity, but would be nice to hear how it does.)
3) Are there any cons to these amps?
Thank you for reading!
Look forward to my Bugera V5 being transformed from a combo to a head as soon as I get this new amp.
