What? - those must have been defective.
My tech here in Berlin does the exclusive repair service for former Yorkville Germany (now represented by Beyerdynamik), so every defective Traynor amp
that comes to Europe lands in his repair shop.
He's not a guitar player and has more of a PA, mixing consoles, synthesizer etc. background.
When he got the exclusive repair deal 3 years ago, he gave me some of his first repaired jobs for testing and to evaluate, that everything sound correct from a guitar player's point of view.
All of the Traynor amps he gave me after his repair job was done were dead quiet!
The YCV20WR with the Celestion Greenback was my favorite of the bunch.
As others have mentioned, the built in Accutronics reverb is way too oversized.
