Classy
The L20T-410 is a classy looking amp. Differing form the norm in the fact that it is a 4 × 10” Jensen Loaded combo which is a classic yet often over looked speaker combination. Combine this speaker compliment with the 20 watts RMS of Class A parallel single ended tone generated by the EL84 output section and you have masses of vintage valve tone in a compact stylish package. It’s snappy vintage style and Class-A sounds means you can’t wait to dive in and see what’s behind this smart façade.
The L20T-410 features a smart, chrome finished control panel which houses the simple pre-amp – Featuring a twin channel layout with independent volume for each channel, passive three band EQ, global tone and reverb.
Output Section
The combination of EL84 loaded single-ended Class-A power stages and premium Jensen speakers really catapults this amplifier into an altogether different league. No more fixation on pre-amp distortion – with the L20T-410 you can hear the “real” sound of a valve amplifier output stage clipping. The dynamic range of the Lionheart amplifiers expands to fill a much bigger space than you’d ever expect from such low wattage units.
Pushed really hard, the sonic punch and clarity of the Jensen loaded L20T-410 is truly excellent and it’s when the amps are being used like this that you can really hear the differences in this speaker compliment.
Lionhearts can sound either vintage or modern depending on how you use the pre-amp controls – back off the gain, wind up the master and you’re cooking up serious retro tone. Digging in hard produces extra bite, or backing off cleans it all up.
Conversely, wind the drive up and you have gain aplenty, giving you all the harmonic squeals and overtones you’d expect from a modern high-gain amplifier.
Each Lionheart L20T-410 features a hand stamped ‘build number’ in the order they come off the Laney production line, and comes with a custom made ‘Lionheart’ dust cover.
The Lionheart range is a significant amplifier in today’s market offering serious tone that’s often difficult to find in products costing twice the price. Lionhearts are easy to use and most players will get a great tone out of them within seconds.
A modern classic, designed and manufactured with pride, in Great Britain.
