ADA GCS-2/3 vs Microcab I/II

(1/2) > >>

El Chiguete:
Who has actually experimented with both to really say what sounds the best?

I'm thinking of getting either the GCS-3 or the Microcab II because both of them allow me to connect them to the speaker out of my poweramp to capture that tone... so 20 years makes the newer product better or not???

McLeanAB:
I own the ADA GCS-2 and I have owned the Microcab I and II, but that was a few years ago...

So, I'm going from memory, but from what I remember, they are very similar in sound... the Microcab sounded a little "dirtier" to my ears, but in the same ball park from what I can recall...

Hope that helps!

MarshallJMP:
I both own the GCS -2 and MC-I and like the MCI,more tonal options.The GCS is limited in tone shaping.

El Chiguete:
Ok so Marshall how would you describe the tonal options of the MC? Good recreation of the original tone they say they are or just like the MP-1 they are ment to have their own tone?

For what I might do I dont necessarily need cab simulation but if I have it I would use it when I needed it.

MarshallJMP:
Well you got the bass and treble pots and you can set all the buttons to the off position when you push one button slightly in,so none of the cab sims are selected.Best sound IMHO.
