Randall RH200 head

I took back the Peavey XXL because it was a used head and when I pushed it hard , it cut out 3 times and I'm talking only running it at full 100 watts through (2) ampeg 412 cabs 8ohms.

I was considering getting a RANDALL RH200 G2 head. Does anyone have any opinions on RANDALL heads and thier tones? I play metal on a Washburn 7 and a Gibson SG 6 string tuned low.

Gimme' your input guys, I purchased the Peavey on a whim - but I am doing some research now so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks -

guitarjitsumaster is a jewel in the rough
I havent played any of the rh's but I love my randall warhead. 300 watts with graphic and parametric EQ. My low B is tighter then 80's spandex.
It may be the 2x15 cabinet that the warhead configuration has but I havent had an amp that is this tight and articulate in the 7 strings lower range.

I get tight-ass tones through my RG75G2, I have a 7-string clip but it might sound kinda flabby cuz of my strings/pickup combo, but with the EMG-81 it's tighter than a 12 year old.

H-207 clip from a while ago, dunno remember what it's like
EMG 81 clip, Pull harder by trivium ... first part is full-on, second part is with the tone knob turned down a bit
EMG HZ from my V-250

Last year, I purchased a brand spanking new RH200SCG2 from a guy who won one in a contest for $175. If was a deal I couldn't pass up since they ran about $400-500 new. The sucker rocked & had all kind of cool options. They are worth checking into.

According to the HC rumor-patrol, there'll be a "G3" series this year, to replace the "G2", an upgrade basically.

A friend of mine had this head and cabinet, and I was pretty impressed. Decent tones (great clean tone), and surprisingly versatile (especially with his Tube Screamer and Smash Box Tone-Lok pedals in front of it).

I just purchased a 5150 combo for $500! - I am going to give it a workout and see how it sounds. Maybe I'll get lucky but if I don't then I'll be going to get the Randall RH 250 G2 - a 250 watt monster being sold by Grand Central Music on eBay.
