I use one and I love it. It is a very versatile amp. It is light and has a lot of features.

Gary, I have the Telonic’s 500C 212 SuperTwin... not only do I like it, but I LOVE it.
This is an amazing amp, with maybe the best DI I’ve used for recording, if I can’t use a Mic... This thing has a TON of Power, and if I add 2- 15†extension speakers, EVEN ones with weird ohm’s, and the Amp will take care of any “Weirdness†and FIX it... I smile EVER-TIME I sit down to play with this amp... a Modern Day Marvel And Telonic’s Customer Service is Impeccable!!!

I've been using a Telonics TCA500 combo amp for a number of years and it has been outstanding - I have used it on small pub gigs, concerts and studio sessions and it has been stellar on every occasion. It also has a number of features other amp manufacturers haven't even thought of !
I also have a Telonics rack rig too just in case I want to rattle the rafters :-}

I would love to own one. A new amp is not in the budget right now, though.

| I currently have a Telonics 500C, a Peavey Session 115, a Peavey LTD 400, and a Katana 100. I recently sold a Little Walter 89, a Peavey 1000, 400, and a 112, a Fender Steel King and a Webb 614. I just bought a Quilter 202 tone block and sent it back 2 days later. The Telonics is in a class by itself. Yes, it also cost the most. Just my experience for whatever it was is worth to you. |

I did the same thing.. I had a LW 89, NV 112 and Session 400 and sold them when I got my Telonics because I didnt need them. The Telonics has been the best amp I have tried.

| Put me down on the “Telonics Believer†List! I bought a used Telonics 500B w/15†speaker six months ago. Prior to this amp, I ONLY had two amps since 1974...both Peavey’s. It’s really a dandy! Itching to try the 500C Mini Twin with 12†speakers...😉. |

As with David, been using Telonics for 10 years. I wouldn't use anything else. Everything in my signal chain is Telonics from PU to Speakers. Currently using a Pre 1000. Best amp I ever had. Best sound and best customer Service

I have the rack system with 15" cabs. It seemed like an extravagance at first, even though I bought it used.
But in terms of features and technical performance it's an absolute joy.
The recording outputs are beautiful and the onstage power lets me keep up with some pretty loud bands.
Yes, it is the most expensive, but you get what you pay for - it's still great value.
