Milkman Sound The Amp 100
Milkman Sound · amplifier
The Milkman Sound The Amp 100 is a pedalboard-sized tube and Class D hybrid amplifier, the higher-powered addition to the model line that set the standard for pedal-format amps in 2018. It pairs a valve preamp stage with Class D power amplification and adds an integrated FET boost circuit and a dual-control reverb. Its output depends on the speaker load: around 50 watts into 16 ohms, 100 watts into 8 ohms and 200 watts into 4 ohms, which is unusual flexibility for something that fits on a pedalboard. Milkman build by hand in San Francisco. It suits gigging and fly-date players who want a real amplifier without carrying one.
