Two-channel full-tube combo with Celstion speakers
With the Engl E600 Ironball Combo, the final forge from Tittmoning in Bavaria presents the long-awaited combo version of the popular Ironball top. Accordingly, the two-channel full-tube combo turns out to be the ideal supplier for versatile sounds between crystal-clear clean and modern high gain distortion. To adjust the sound, the preamplifier, which is based on four ECC83 tubes, is equipped with a common 3-band tone control for clean and lead channel, which is supplemented by a switchable gain boost and a presence control. The Engl Ironball Combo also features an integrated reverb effect and a serial effect path. The output stage of the Engl Ironball draws 20 watts of power from two EL84 tubes, which are output via a 12-inch Celestion Vintage 30 loudspeaker. Thanks to the integrated Power Soak, the power can also be reduced to five watts or one watt. In addition, the amplifier can be played silently via the headphone output or the balanced line out.
