Hi all,
I've been trying all my drive pedals at 18V recently, and so far it has always improved the sound. I'm about to build a couple new reverbs, the Gravitation and Spirit Box, and I'm curious if I can run them at 18V, providing I use proper caps, which I always do anyway. Does there tend to be any improvement, more headroom, etc with time-based or modulation pedals? I'm no sure I've seen it done with these types of pedals, so I thought I'd consult the brain trust lol.
Thanks!
EDIT: I have an already-built Sproing, can I run it at 18V too?
