WHo Makes TWISTER Amps now?

[Charlie Brown]

Just wondering. I heard his son carried on the tradition? Theres seems to be several of these amps in my area. a 1x4 base, a 2x8 base and a 16 pill all plug in the wall amps. Personally I have a 2x8 in the mobeel. Just wondering who makes them now and if anyone has any contact info on the builder. PM me

Thanks

The same guy that's always built them is still at it. Check your PM.

I just picked up a twister xl250v for a decent price on eBay. Nice little amp.

A plug in the wall 16 pill, wow. I think it would be time to go with a tube amp before I would do that.

Yeah I could see some rare cases where a person already has a 16 pill mobile amp and a power supply big enough to run it but buying a 16 pill base isn't cost effective at all. A tube with equal or more output will cause less problems with the neighbors too.

It's got a problem if it's only doing 10dB.

from the pics it looks as if its been a lil warm on the inside?? or maybe its baby oil used to keep it from aging..

From what I've saw the numbers he posted are about par for a comp style 16 pill. If it were biased it would talk less drive. The transformer wraps could be changed also. Keep in mind a lot of people will drive a 16 pill with a 1x4. Most builder know someone is going to run the piss out of their product and build accordingly. 10:1 is what I see out of the 16 in my mobile (fatboy with the necessary repairs to run correctly) with a reasonable amount of drive. Of course the gain becomes less and less the harder you drive it and at that point you're pissing in the wind.

I hear you. That might be a good deal for someone but a really bad idea for anyone with neighbors. Not because of the brand but any pill amp that size.

Trash in trash out.

Really, for what it is, that's a good deal. Some of the new 16's are going for $1800. That's no power supply included.

Are they all as dirty as this one or is this an exception?

Looking at that amp you posted, where is the feedback circuits. Lol. It's an incomplete amp.
