Review: Valve creaminess... at a bargain price. - So... I bought this pre-owned, in fair condition from desertcart. It arrived next day, but the power tube was fooked.. Big crack in the glass & it could be heard as soon as it was plugged in and powered up. So... ordered an upgrade kit from "Watford Valves" UK. A set specific for the T5. They arrived a few days later. Threw them in &..... Well.... I'm in love.... The sound is too hard to describe in words.but.... Cream and warmth... through an 8 inch vox speaker, from a pathfinder... Just.... incredible... And all for under £150..... The only 3 cons about this little monster... 1.No standby switch 2.Rattling sound from the top and bottom pieces of the amp housing... (I resolved it with some insulating tape... cut into small pieces next to the scews, like little pads) 3.it makes random noises now and then once it's hot, but not being played on... Like gunshots, or a car backfiring... Possibly the tubes.. All.in... an incredible piece of kit for any guitarist, looking for valve tones at house friendly volume. But... loud enough for a small.pub gig. 10/10 for the money....
Review: Fantastic Sound , Fantastic Build , Fantastic Price - What can I say . I paid£125 for this little stunner . Is back to the bones as I wanted , no frills . If you want frills like equalizers pay double . Its well built has 2 decent valves already fitted . It sounds gorgeous with either my LP or Strat or a couple of semi acoustics . Keep it simple play well and you are rewarded with what to me is the archetypal "Valve" sound I have been used to for over 40 years from amps costing 5 times this and not too much better { louder yes } than this Behringer make . It goes louder than it should but loses a bit of its Valve glory the louder its turned by way of the 3 way selector on the rear 0.5 , 1w and last position 5w . PLEASE don't let those figures put you off . It has drive at sensible volumes then again I'm old and don't like things too loud nowadays . Too many people sit on the numbers game . Ive heard 30watters sound more dynamic and loud than amps rated at 200watts rated . Its not going to fill the Albert hall but it might just manage to fill the scout hall . If your looking for a fantastic sounding amp with more than a hint of Valve and don't need it to fill too big a room then this is a very very good amp and fabulous for the money although elsewhere its about 40% more than desertcart as I write this . Ive played through amps for a long time both trans and valve and this pound for pound is simply a fantastic sounding clean amp . If you wanna cheat look elsewhere for summit with more toys on the front and be prepared to pay a lot more . I absolutely love to the point of considering buying another 2 and modding them to play my turntable through .

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I attach a guitar and mic to the single input by using a Y splitter and would it sound Ok?**
A: Oh hell no. It's an amp for a guitar. A fantastic amp for the price... I sold mine and would love to get another.

**Q: What is the sound/tone like at low volumes. I need a amp to use in a bedroom.**
A: On 2 watt setting with gain and volume set at 3 o'clock through 12" speaker it works well using volume control on guitar.
I did change valves, I dropped in a 12 AT7 instead of 12 AX7 for less gain and better bass frequencies. Power valve too.
I would say this is an excellent amp for practice, recording and small scale gigs (coffee shop troubadour sessions not Wembley Areana).
Dial gain and volume up to max on 2 watt and your ears buzz. ½ watt is good for overdrive sessions. Full 5 watt this thing is brilliant.
Go to Thomann for 12" celestion speaker cab.
Yes, swap valves for better quality tubes, not NOS Millard's but EHX or Groove Tubes at a lesser price and you will be amazed. Watford Valves does a great service and explains valve characteristics.
You're welcome ;-)

**Q: I have the guitar pluged into the input I have the cabinet plug into the socket with the ohm sign on it and I'm getting no sound**
A: Hello! There are many possible reasons that you don’t get any tone!! First of all make sure your cable is working well!! With your plug ins is nothing wrong. Just make sure you don’t use a 16ohm cabinet! On the back is a little red light, under the Infinium label!! When that is lit there’s a problem with the power valve!! Next, try all settings on the power attenuator!! There are 3 settings possible, 0.1 watt, 1watt, and full 5watt, if any of them give you no sound the attenuator is faulty! Now last but not least, put the tone and volume settings on 12 clock!! Also the Gain knob!! Even if you want to play just clean tones, you have to play with the Gain knob!!! Then there’s a little “Phat” switch between the Gain and Treble knob, that will give a power boost!! If there’s still no success look at the Fuse in the power cable you use!! If it still does not work, send it back!! Do not try to open it up or do anything inside of it!!! It’s very dangerous and can be lethal!!! I hope this will help!

**Q: If I buy a signal splitter device can I plug my guitar and mic into the single input? Would they both work?**
A: If you're DAW or audio input has two inputs then you should be able to record both at the same time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tone, great price.
*by D***K on 23 February 2021*

Superb single channel, all valve head, with 3 attenuated power settings, which is incredibly useful for quieter practice times. Can be dropped down to 0.1w, whilst still maintaining excellent tone, allowing your chords and individual notes to ring out with great clarity . The built in reverb is fairly decent, but I prefer to use my HOF 2 pedal and although there's no effects loop, it's a great pedalboard platform running into the front of the amp. The Phat switch gives you even more tonal possibilities and it basically transforms the head into a 1.5 channel amp. I've owned this T5 head for just over a month now and for me it's a definite keeper. Build quality belies it's price tag. It's a good weight and photos really don't do it justice. I tend to use this with my Fender standard strat, through a 12 inch speaker cab, equipped with an 8ohm celestion Vintage 30 speaker and I absolutely love this combination, it really sounds superb. I was so impressed by the T5, i ordered the bugera V5 combo last week, with an 8 inch turbosound speaker, but unfortunately ended up returning the V5 back to Amazon. I was so disappointed in the sound quality, compared to the T5. Perhaps if I'd ordered the V5 first, I may have ended up keeping it, but glad I had the opportunity to compare the two. It was a little unfair comparing the T5 and a 12 inch speaker cab and the V5 with its 8 inch speaker, but I honestly don't think it was all down to the speaker difference. I know sound is very subjective, but to my ears the V5 sounded muddy and lacked clarity. There's only a tone knob on the V5 and found i had to crank it fully clockwise to try and improve the sound. The T5 has separate bass and treble controls, which work very well and I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality from the headphone output. Pair this head with the right cab and you're on to a winner and for £122, what's not to like, it was a real bargain.
