A note about b-stocks: One might call it “scratch-n-dent”, another might call it “relic'ed” (if that’s you, we won’t even charge you extra!). In any case, these units are perfectly functioning on the inside, but have minor imperfections on the outside. Some examples include small paint chips and color inconsistencies. Seriously, you usually can’t even see them.

Learn How to Use the BrownBox
Really like this unit.
What sold me for this product was Dan, Mick from the pedal show on you-tube and the ability to plug in multiple amps via the 4 receptacles in the back.
Big Brown Box for studio, should have done it sooner!
I originally purchased a brown box. Loved it soo much I upgrade to the 1200 rack unit. Anyone who cares about maintaining their vintage amps should own one! Best money I’ve ever spent. I can’t imagine going back to not owning one.

An amazing product. Anyone who owns vintage audio gear should have one…or MORE!
Wow - 114-115v for my 65 Tremolux made a HUGE difference in tone! I'm a believer.
This product has brought my tweed Fender Super, Blackface Twin Reverb, Valco and Danelectro amps back from the storage facility.
I have played electric guitar and bass for over 55 years, I remember how these, above mentioned, amplifiers should sound like and also perform like. Now, with The Brown Box, I am playing my vintage amps again. They have great tone and reliablity. That makes me happy. Thank you
Works great to stabilize input voltage for an older SuperLead
Required equipment for any tube amp. Built like a tank, these look as good as they perform!
The plate voltage on my vintage silver panel Deluxe Reverb is now in a safe range. I feel comfortable running vintage power tubes and it sounds so good. It has just the right amount of sag that was previously missing. Thanks AmpRx!
Yes, I know it's only January, but investing in my amp with a Brown Box was the smartest decision I've made in a long time. Thanks AmpRx. Now I'm safe and secure!
My wall voltage is anywhere from 118v to 129v. I've found my Two Rocks to sound ideal biased at 30ma idle per tube.. Well, if the wall is 128v when I bias to my preferred 30ma per tube, and the next time I play the wall is 120v, my tubes are only idling at 27ma… enough to notice a little stiffness, with less smooth high end, so I’m messing with the gain and EQ trying to find the tone from the night before.
Now I set my Brownies to 120v,, bias the amps, and keep it at 120v. My amps always sound great. I turn my amps on and the tone is there…every time. So I can spend my time playing and not tweaking.
This is a gift for a talented relative, so I can only say it is a heavy, solid piece of equipment that arrived in good order. Nice people at BrownBox who respond to emails.
Received exactly as advertised! Great build quality and functionality. I may need to buy another one!
Excellent product - it's the piece of gear I didn't know I needed. The feel of the amp "under the fingers" is amazing. My pedals seems to sound and feel "better" as well, and I know my amp is happy too.
Love the Brownie. I have not been able to find anything that would make it B Stock - did you guys acidentally put a new Brownie in a B-Stock box? It works perfect delivering 117 VAC to my Mesa Boogie which is by the way what the user manual calls for!
BrownBox has been instrumental in keeping my vintage Ampeg SVT operating flawlessly on the road, where voltages can fluctuate wildly!
congratulations to the team of AmpRx
