Came across this on Harmony Central.

Think they've just started and debut their products in Musikmesse. Apparently they have a technology called DPR which can scale down the wattage but NOT affect the tone. Very interesting. :)

And they pedals do look very interesting. But 300V?! Gimmick or truth? :wink: Leave it to the techies to answer. :)
 
300V input voltage for the pedals la. :? They have "tubed" pedals too which they claim are powered by 300V.

For the amp, think they have one model which is 200W giant which is scaled down to a 20W baby. :o
 
300V pedals?? Wah must be very hot man.. must wear shoes then can step, otherwise burn your toes..
:lol: :lol:

Better not spill anything on it also.. probably will kill you. :lol:
 
now you are freakin me out 8O

:lol: :lol: That's what they claim in their product brochure. That's why I asked if such a high voltage input is feasible? :)

I also dunno how much. The amp and pedals are jsut released to the public at MusicMesse. Me wanna see or hear clips.
 
300VDC? and why not?

Just think of tube preamp head shrunk into a small little box.

EH done it before. Matchless done it before. I think a lot of companies have done this before.
 
yah i think 300V DC if leak will give you a nasty shock the least. 8O

They are running it full tilt at 300V to charge the plates of the tube in the pedal i suppose.. but to me its safer to leave the high voltages in a real amp, not the pedals at your feet...
