To help control stage volume, both Munky and Head isolate the cabs for their dirty Triple Rectifier offstage inside a road case, and capture the thunder with three mics: a Shure KSM27, Beta 52, and Beta 56.

When talking talking to [Premier Guitar](http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/Interview_Bad_Brains_The_Big_Takeover_That_Never_Was?page=1) about the switch from Marshall's and Fender's, Doc says, " We were on tour with Living Colour, and Vernon [Reid]’s tech was a rep at Mesa. Vernon was using the Dual Rectifiers, but they didn’t have enough headroom for me. So I A/B/C’d the Marshall with the Dual and Triple Rectifiers, and the Triples had good headroom and could hold the bottom but also clean up like a Twin—because I need to have a very versatile amp. I use the 6L6 version, because it’s cleaner."

For Mixdown Erik said: We’ve been endorsed by Mesa Boogie for a long, long time and I love their stuff. I use a Triple Rectifier and their cabinets. But I really like the other head which Mattias is using, which they’re not making any more, the Stiletto. Love the sound of those. Live the Triple Rectifier is really good. I love to switch channels but I hate the little mute while you’re switching channels. It’s annoying with that little dead air there.

"I'm using a Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier, and I add a heavy metal pedal to that and blend the two distortions together. I'm running that through two Marshalls, like an old '60s cab and a more modern one, which is my live setup. We wanted to keep the sound basically like what we sound like live -- no real studio tricks or anything added."

Let’s move on to the amps in the middle. Two Mesa-Boogie Triple Rectifiers, and two Randall Century 200s, each head feeding two Mesa standard Rectifier cabs, so that’s 4 stacks, two for each side of the stage, in stereo.

Mieszko said about the amp used in "Helvete": "This time however I wanted something different, not to completely leave what we had used before but to have the same kind of sound with more clarity and tone. We all felt that the new riffs deserved a bit more clarity. So I tried several combinations of heads/cabinets and ended up with a Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier and a Mesa Boogie Pre-amp."
