My buddy has a solid state rectifier in his Delta 88 and I remember A/B-ing it with him and it sounded a lot better/tighter to our ears. Anybody done/doing this with the SRZ? Any opinions would be welcome, I'd be planning on using the Groove Tubes plug-in.....

Michael Burks uses SS rectifiers in his Delta 88s and MAZ Sr.
They will make the amp (including the SRZ-65) tighter. You loose some of the cool bloom of the amps though and some of the cool user interaction. Inthe end it is personal preference.

thanks myles! well, the srz seems to have a bit of a muddy low-end to me and i guess i'm wondering if the SS rectifier might help.....?
would the amp need to be re-biased? if so, would it be a bad idea just to plug one in and see how it sounds without re-biasing?

I hadn't seen that thread, but I don't think think I see the connection.... I'm not after a boogie sound, or more gain.... just curious about using a solid state recitifer instead of the tube rectifier. was that the right link? maybe i'm missing something....?

There is a solid state rectifier in my 6545 and that amp sounds great.
Another thing to consider is speaker choice. You may want to try a really "tight" speaker.
