It has evolvedfrom the original, critically acclaimed Marshall Valvestate technology, but is improved so that itemulates even more closely the feel and response of the classic Marshall all-valve powerstage...without using valves.It is not only the power stage that has been significantly improved in the VS2000 Series. Muchcareful attention to detail and many hours of development have also gone into the preamp sectiontoo. As a result, each AVT channel offers the widest possible range of control and shape to yoursound, with an ECC83 (a.k.a.12AX7) preamp valve adding to the all-important tone and feel ofthese latest Marshall creations.Valve Drive Pre-ampAs just stated, each amp in the VS2000 range boasts a preamp stage equipped with anECC83 Dual Triode valve. Drawing on our vast experience in this field, we have gone to greatlengths to ensure that this precious device delivers maximum sonic benefit at all settings andvolume levels. As a result, the clean sounds ring with the ‘bell-like’ harmonics that only a valvepreamp can deliver and, when pushed, the break-up is never harsh or unnatural sounding.Whenever an AVT Overdrive channel is selected the ECC83’s dual triode is saturated to its limit,providing the dynamics and feel worthy of a place in the Marshall hall of fame.Power Amp DeliveryThe same sort of toneful care and attention was also focused on the all-important powerstages of the AVT series. Our goal was to ensure that each one would create the warm, musicalfeel and 3-dimensional sounds that have made our all-valve power amps world renowned. Inaddition, these VS2000 products were designed to deliver the goods in the often hostile andunpredictable environment of the live performance stage - which is why all the AVT power amps,from the AVT50 upwards, are fan cooled for optimum reliability.'Extended Bass Response' LoudspeakersKnowing how important the relationship between the amplifier and speaker is, this is anotherarea where we spent a great deal of time and effort when developing the VS2000 Series. Byworking extremely closely with our long-term colleagues at Celestion Loudspeakers, we havesuccessfully developed a range of speakers which, through radical design, re-define the state-of-theart in rock guitar reproduction. In a nutshell, they allow the compact closed back cabinets used inthe AVT range to maintain the bottom end delivery normally only associated with a full 4 x12cabinet set-up.DFX On boardAt Marshall our aim is to create products that offer our fellow guitarists true inspiration in thepractice and performance of their art. When integrating DFX (Digital Effects) into the tonal topologyof AVT, the greatest care was taken to ensure that the highest level of signal integrity wasmaintained. Through careful shaping and mixing of the ‘wet’ (processed) and ‘dry’ (unprocessed)signals, we have ensured that the on board effects enhance your tone while adding none of thenasty, artificial ‘grain’ often associated with DFX.We are so proud and enthused by the end results of our labour that we feel fully justified inhailing Advanced Valvestate Technology as a major breakthrough in hybrid guitar amplifier design.We are convinced that you will derive as much pleasu... read more
