What can you tell me about Carvin vs Marshall amps?

vote up

Carvin amps have some durability issues from the people that I've spoken to about them. Therefore, it's almost smarter to spend the extra money and get a marshall amp. However, you also have to take into consideration the sound you are looking for. With the distortion and effects you get from Marshall amps, they're best for metal and rock.

I strongly disagree. I've had a Carvin Valvemaster amp for 20 years and never had one problem. I bought a DSL 2000 and gigged with it for 2 years and hade to have it fixed 7 times!!! All diferenct problems. Marshalls sound great but there quality is gone. Carving V3! add a comment

While the Carvin Corporation sells directly to consumers and manufactures different product types, Marshall Amplification specializes in being the premier amp company for loud music during the past half century.

Each of these amps run in the same price range. They have different sounds so what is best for you may depend on the type of music you play. Marshall's have more gain then the Carvin's.
