Read the review: http://bit.ly/DuskyD2O • Not to take anything away from ambitious amps with multiple channels, high-octane preamps, and complex tone stacks, but it’s tough to beat the tactile response and sonic immediacy of a simple signal path populated with high-quality parts. • The new D2O from North Carolina’s Dusky Electronics is a stellar example of doing lots with less. Dusky says the amp’s name alludes to the chemical symbol for the heavy water used in nuclear reactors, and was chosen because the amp can sound both heavy and clear. It certainly does—and in cool and unusual ways. • I tested D2O with Dusky’s Hydrogen Cab ($575, sold separately)—a 1x12 with a ceramic Warehouse G12C/S speaker. With their coordinated orange/sky-blue color scheme, the head and cab look fab together. Their cheery colors could have been inspired by a 1960s detergent box—or a pop artist’s interpretation of one. And then there’s that wild front-panel cutout, backlighted by tubes glowing through a translucent plastic screen. • Lacking reverb or tremolo, the D2O is comparatively no-frills. And the head’s two 6L6 power tubes evoke such ’60s Fender amps as the Bassman, Bandmaster, and Super. (According to Dusky, you can substitute EL34, KT88, or 6550 power tubes with no modifications, though I only evaluated the amp with its stock Russian-made Tung-Sol tubes.) • To continue reading the review, visit: http://bit.ly/DuskyD2O
