Wish you success but that lone sample is not tempting me; I'll be brutal, it is an awful demo. I have a Raezer's Edge Nighthawk 12* in the works from Sound Island Music and am looking for a small head.
Get better demos out, Quilter.
* It is a front-firing full-range single-driver 12" cab, 50Hz to 17khz.Last edited by Jabberwocky; 04-13-2017 at 12:31 AM.

If it doesn't work out, I'm sure someone will love to take it off my hands at a discount

I went to looked at the Quilter combos about a year ago. The dealer was located in a very old New England frame building with multiple tenants. Must have been some interesting wiring in there. There was so much hiss in the amps that he was not able to get rid of by adjusting to even start a demo. Not sure if it was the wiring or the way he had things adjusted at the amp.
Any good way to demo these and adjust with minimal hiss? Based on what I heard, I got the impression the combos were better suited for a noisy bar and not all that great for home / studio use.

I love Quilter as a company, and i love this new head, but I don't see any advantage over the Micro 50 head.

But yes, we could definitely use more!Last edited by petermelton; 04-13-2017 at 03:50 PM.

I felt that aviator I owned was peaky in the midrange and had an exaggerated upper mid instead of a true treble knob and was never able to dial it in to sound like a sweet princeton or deluxe reverb which is the vibe I hear in the DV Mark head above. i'd love to know if the tweaks you guys have made over the years have gotten quilter closer but the demos don't give any type of feel for whether it gets that type of tone.

Turns out there's a place about 45minutes away that carries quilter and is reserving a 101 Reverb for me. I'll let you know...
