Probably you need to be a senior member to be able to get into the afterhours section.
I still like the Marshall-Forum because there a some really good guys over there, but the tone is much harsher than at the MLP. People disagree, but they are not speaking terribly bad about other peoples Les Pauls, because hey they are still Les Pauls. In my perspective the same applies to Marshalls tube amps, almost all models have been used for some great productions. Some are very special like the AfD, they excel in one area but they can't do everything, others like the JVM are great universal amps. Unfortunately some of the members at the Marshall forum are so focused on their own tonal preferences that they can not accept that other people need a different tone to do what they want to achieve, or they complain for example that an AfD doesn't sound great with a Strat, hey it was made for Les Pauls!
