  • Emc S300

    I have a friend w/ one of these. It sounds quite horrible.... however w/ the reverb cranked it has a pretty charming thing going on. I also noticed that w/ the reverb cranked the tone of the amp overall sounded MUCH better. For the most part the amp sounds starved, like that solid-state thing that gives solid-state a bad rep/name.... even though I know many solid state amps sound pretty incredible. Very mid rangey and "hard." Anyone familiar w/ these? Any hope for this amp or should my friend buy something else?

    EMC, from Cleveland, right?

    I have seen a few of their products, and I want to run screaming the other direction when they arrive. They had an 8 channel stereo mixer that took me a while to fathom. It seems channels 1-4 went to the left power amp and channels 5-8 went to the right power amp. I swear to God.

          It could probably be improved, but withoout schematics to refer to, i don't know how to help from here. If I have my own thumbs in it, I would be more confident of success.
