For anyone who is interested. Chip “Scooter” Dugan at sovtek replied to me and said..you cannot feed more voltage to the Metal muff, doing so might blow the units board up.
As for the mxr pedal which is the distortion III..The tech at dunlop answered my follow up question, saying that running the distortion III at 18V would not void the warranty. He went on to say, one of the techs at dunlop has been powering his pedal that way for a while, and hasn’t run into any problems.
I have to say, i find that pretty intriguing.
ur86dMemberI know i shouldn’t assume, but as far as the MXR pedal goes, i am assuming the dunlop tech at least looked that far (cap ratings etc) before responding. I haven’t tried running the pedal out of spec yet, and i did hit them up with follow up questions about voiding the warranty if i decide to try it. I may be curious, but not foolish.. heh heh
ur86dMemberYeah, that word should does raise some warning flags, I agree. I found the reply interesting though. I sent an e-mail to Electro-harmonix, asking the same question i asked here..will be interesting to see what they say.
ur86dMemberOk, thank you..i was just curious. I asked a similar question the other day, to the tech staff at MXR about one of thier pedals i own..and according to them..even though the pedal is rated at 9V, they said running at 18V should be ok and i’d hear more headroom and clarity. So, ya never know till ya ask. heh heh
I’d like to think they gave me good information, and aren’t trying to have me ruin that pedal intentionally,so i have to buy a new one.
