I have usually seen 2.5k as the recommended load for KT66. Do they run well with the 5200/6600 impedance of Heyboer or you use something else?

Dear Rocket

Thanks for the reply. Firstly I didn't even know that you had more than one Rocket amp.

I would like to know what speakers you use with these amps, and why?

What guitars are best suited to your amps?

Are the amps best suited to clean tones or distorted tones?

You may have read some of the posts I have made about the prototype I threw together. I thought it produced fantasic distorted tones with my Stratocastor, the tones were much better than the tones I was getting with Express and Liverpool prototypes. BTW the clean tones were typical of an AC-30.

I also was getting a slight hum from the Rocket prototype, do have have this sort of thing happening from your amp?
Yours Sincerely
