@edwardjons8684 3 года назад

No, because obviously an old tv screen is a ‘tube’ in the UK too (crt tube emitting electrons onto a phosphorescent screen). An old tv would have valves inside performing a similar job to valves in an amp, and also a cathode-ray tube that produces pictures... So it’s helpful to call a tube a tube and a valve a valve - they are two different things... Also, the name ‘valve’ references the way the component controls/diverts electron flow. Current, flow, valve... all are consistently using the language of liquids to describe electricity. So again, ‘valve’ is more informative than ‘tube’. :-)

@freezingCode 3 года назад

This reminds me a bit of the Stone Deaf Effects SD amps where it was a valve circuit, but digital controls to store as many presets as you wanted. So, the shared EQ wasn't really a problem in these scenarios because the presets each had their own EQ settings regardless of where the knobs were on the amp. Those didn't sell too well it seems because they don't make them anymore, and you don't see them on the used market very often.

Leendert Haaksma and don't forget Erik van de Haar (Haar guitars). Both they started this line of valve amps. As a electro technician I always thought that I am a specialist in that and a guitarplayer as Leendert is specialised in playing guitar. Wrong. He nows really "everything" ( uhhhh... almost then? 😉) about valve amps and their technic. So in the early years of the Hook amps I owned a R20. Great amp. Then I swapped it for a R40 with more punch on the stage. A superb amp for the soundhe is made for. Because I stopped playing on stage I wanted to sell the R40, but my oldest son, who is also is playing guitar wanted this one for special reasons I can't tell here. He bought it for half the price I already got on the digital market. A pitty, but also I am happy to see it stays in the family. That amp has to do with the hard working time and the love to the builders who I personaly know verry well. It deserves a place in the "top ten valve amps". 😉
