        I came across this video on YouTube. It is from a popular you tuber so I don’t think it is fake. Hugh’s and Kettner claim to have produced the loudest combo amp ever. 200 watts. I do find it strange that he didn’t show the amp. But if the amp isn’t for sell yet this is a good way get people interested. Here is the link, give me your opinion….

          Won’t argue with Hughes & Kettner – they are a great company with great amps but in 1970, Fender produced an amp with 435 watts of pure tube tone. Granted, it was a bass amplifier but so was the Bassman when it was introduced so I’m sure that someone used one of the latter models for guitar as well

            I do not understand this intension. Who needs that? If I want to sound like a stadium, I need several sound sources in different places. Since 200 watts would be overloaded in my opinion. Or am I wrong? And if I need 200 watts (for whatever reason), then I’m certainly interested in no reduction to 2 watts. This may be about “technology that inspires”. Regardless, technically speaking, it’s an amazing feat to do such a thing; Here I assume that the reduction to 2 watts does not bring significant loss of sound.

            Play guitar just like you live; don't get bogged down in theory, it's just a tool without feeling.
