Well, I have been searching for the answer to this question for a few days now. I looked through many of the threads already posted and searched but I couldn't find the answer here. So, sorry If this question has already been asked.
I saw on this guitargeek website that steve vai basically uses two halfstacks (8 speakers with 2 amp heads) and then saw that joe satriani uses one full stack (8 speakers with 1 amp head). And I hope this site wasn't just feeding me with BS. I'm a vai addict (obviously) and was thinking of buying the carvin legacy fullstack. But I started wondering,... how would it affect the tone to have two half stacks as opposed to one amphead for all 8 speakers? I tried searching for the answer, and from I can tell, more watts = more volume. And I was thinking that two half stacks might give a fatter sound but thats just a guess because I don't understand much of anything. So, can anyone help me out? Whats the difference in sound between two halfstacks and one fullstack?
