Turns out the ratings printed on my amp are incorrect. Later batches have the correct ratings printed however

Steve Vai now endorsing Synergy.

The king of horrible tone.

Still, I'm not going to let it put me off Synergy.

Got an SN2 on the way, second hand from Germany. Unlike the RM4s, the SN2s don't switch between US and Euro voltage, so unless you want to use a small transformer, you have to get the 240v model.

Matt, cool. Yep, the Synergy modules are good. I have three: TDLX, 800 and SLO. I have been so busy at work, I haven't even played the SLO yet.

May even have my RM4 for sale soon.
