Is it "Amp-->Two Notes"OPUS"-->Loadbox-->Speaker OR...............................Is it "Amp-->Loadbox-->OPUS-->Speaker? And finally what jacks use (speaker cable)?? Thank you so much for your help in advance because I am "dead in the water" ntil i know the safe way to cable this
This looks great but isn't it weird to have a 100W EL34 70's Marshall, where much of the fabled 'plexi sound' is in cranking those EL34s, and replacing that with (in the case of a PS2A) a 50W 6L6 power section? Doesn't it totally change the character of the amp?
Thanks for watching! In regards to your question, as the Fryette sits in between the Amp and the Cab, all the work those EL34s have done will be going in to the Fryette... The power amp section of the PS2A simply amplifies the signal coming in which has been 'unloaded'. If anything, the Power Station would be perfect for pushing a Plexi to it's limit to achieve the tone you're looking for and then bringing it right down in volume! Hope that answers your question.
In a roundabout way...yes. If one is pinpointing the extra gain saturation of the power amp tubes within your head amplifier by turning your master up and demanding an extra toll on your speakers...the fryette power station interjects the signal.... then takes that energy and consolidates it by harnessing that saturation of both the power amp and pre amp stages of your guitar amplifier into the harmonic gain characteristics of those tubes being pushed hard at a more reasonable volume. In addition to volume control... there is a depth and presence knob along with some additional toggles for warmth, bite, all of these knobs can color the gain characteristics. However if you don't want any of that additional color, the Fryette allows you to send a transparent signal of only the actual original tonality and harmonic bliss occurring in your amplifier without applying the additional color it offers. I have one and opt to use the additional color features. Additional I use the effects loop for pristine time based effects placed after all of that guitar amps preamp and power amp distortion harmonics. It really is an incredible sonic tool. Cheers. I am just trying to offer clarity and be helpful. I dig mine. It's a game changer.
Absolutely informative video on the product. I currently own a Freyette Power Station PS-2A and cannot live without it. Amazing product!!!
Never heard of this before but makes me think & need one and I will definitely give one as a present to a guitar player I know
😂 That's a great present, how kind of you!
I have 2 of these..hands down,absolutely the most useful piece of gear I have ever owned…
two!
Great video. Very easy to understand. Thank You

I was really hoping to see the DB difference with the ps100 fully attenuating.
Isn't it true that whatever is in the effects loop doesn't get sent through the XLR out?

@@guitarguitaruk Ahh, NOW I get it!! Thanks!
So the power station is gain staging controller ?
