George.....You don't need anyone to demo your amps.....literally. Your playing & style is perfect for showcasing these amps. The differences and feel are subtle......but man are they there. Would love to be near that mic'ed cab to experience all the nuance & feel that is lost in translation via RUclips.
Thanks for taking the time to give such a thorough and useful demo between both models. The differences in a lot of the tones are subtle, but definitely there. Very responsive and gracious of you to do this at the request of your prospective customers. Cheers!
Iv got a 71 50 watt marshall, had the early slo 100, have a friedman be 100 and picked up a metroplex! This amp is crazy good !! My favorite!! Touch sensitive, roll back volume , sweet tone ! Iv never seen an amp cover so much guitar tone territory, Hendrix, Allman Bros!, VH ACDC! All the music I grew up with is in this amp !! It has a Bottom end THUNK that has to be experienced! Mid that cuts and treble that doesn’t pierce! I love this amp !!
Frickin ay...I'll take both! Very good explanation on differences! I love the sag/tone 3 dimensional sound that is so elusive of Plexi type circuit builders. Obviously George gets it.
I like them both, but like the DV1 slightly better. I just ordered one from George in fact. The DV1 captures the old but does the new better. More versatile, and agree it has evolved.
Virtually the same. The small difference is the second reason we use EQ controls. The first reason for EQ are the variations in speakers. I modded my Super Bass and it sounds great, cascaded gain, Super Leaded the preamp cathodes, used a 221pf instead of the 470pf on grid resistor. Was bright still. Great tone but 2 to 3 on presence, mid and treble, so I added a 1000pf at preamp out to ground where I put in a 1meg master volume and now I get a great tone with mid on 5 and treble on 5. Actually it sounds like your amps in this video.
Call me crazy, but in this video I really like the high mid bark of the metroplex over the DVL’s voicing. It leans more towards classic Marshall bark. There’s just something in the DVL that I’m not a fan of. I can’t wait to order a metroplex soon!
DVL does the exact same thing the Metroplex does. Thats why George stopped making them. Either George didn't match the sounds, or its all in your head.
Go to destroy all guitars web site... they will hook you up... also George has a web site for Metropoulos Amps. I play his Super Plex... best amp I have ever played... these videos don’t do them justice. You got to hear them for yourself.

They both sound amazing.
One could not go wrong either way!
These both sound amazing. I need one of these amps in my life.
Excellent work sir!
Love my metroplex and superplex a lot but man the DVL sounds so good
Amazing! I never thought anything could sound as good as the Metroplex, but the DVL-1 is now on my must have list! Great work George
holy mother of god that sounded great....wow. My DVL-1 lands next week!

that DVL-1 is gorgeous!
The DVL sound a bot lower middy and tighter. Great video

@@rocafella142 huh? He makes both the Metro-Plex and the DVL1,you can order either to this day on the website.
@@cardbored_ no. He stopped making Metroplex. Unless he started again recently
I agree, that's the same reason why I prefer Metroplex over DVL and superplex.
Funny, I prefer the DVL in the 66 mode but not the others.
Which of the 2 would you choose first for Jeff Beck 1st 2 records? (jeff Beck group and beck O La) and also for his track "since we ended as lovers?
METROPOULOS. GREEK?
They sound dark. Maybe it's the recording.
Any plans to make a combo for those of us that can’t play at plexi volumes?
The sound of god!
Never heard of this amp til I saw ur vids
So compared to a plexi how do find them....what type of tubes drive them?

You don't offer amp kits anymore?
IMO this is one of the least good clips of the Metroplex I've seen. I own one. It's the best amp I've ever played. Sounds great.
Such a shame he doesn't build the metroplex anymore 😔😔😔
😎🇬🇷🎸🎼👍✌
...and all of the mick ronson spiders from mars tracks?
