Yamaha THR5 vs THR10 Comparison
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- Basically I cover two points in this video which I think are big advantages of the Yamaha THR10 (and why I wish I had bought one instead of the THR5):
1) The absence of a volume knob for the aux input on the THR5 (the "Volume" knob controls only the guitar sound - NOT the whole volume for the unit) - the THR10 has knobs for both.
2) No way on the THR5 to save tweaks made using the THR Editor in the amp itself. Even cab defaults for the various amps don't stick when changed, and there's no way to save them on the amp. The THR10 allows you to save these as presets on the amp.
BTW - the batteries I mention are the Sanyo (I guess now Panasonic?) Eneloop, which Yamaha actually recommends using with this amp:

G'day nasonmusic, it is 5 1/2 years later and your video is still helpful, thank you! :)
Its great to see someone who cares enough about tone to help everyone else in the same road to their tone search
Dude! I love it that guys like you take the effort to make such a video. Based on your'e review ill go for the 10. Thanks!!
Dude, this was so useful. Thanks for taking the time.
I've played both. The cab size is not what makes a difference. The THR10 has individual low, mid, and high frequency knobs to adjust the sound, and add more bass if desired. The THR5 just has a single tone knob. Volume-wise, they're both about the same.
Thanks, Walter White.
wire a potentiometer to line input
Well done ... that helps my decision a lot ! Hope Santa can get the THR 10 down the chimney.
Other things to note are the lack of separate Tone controls on the 5 and the fact that the10 has 3 extra amp models so you can use it with a bass, electro-acoustic or any other Line source but with control of tone.
Cheers for the post. Lots of demo's out there, but you really explained the difference between the two. Spot on.
Thanks for the info. I'm not actually looking to buy, but I like checking out what's on the market. Knowing a products limitations for day to day use is always handy.
For my money, the 10 isn't worth the massive 50% markup in price unless there's a significant difference in audio quality.
A big THANK YOU for this post. I got the perfect answer to why I shouldn't think about the cheaper THR5 model. Thanks! Now I just have get away with sending my newly bought Blackstar HT-dual back to Thomann in Germany and buy a THR10 instead... Rock On!
true - and they make inline volume control knobs for this purpose too, that are designed for pro use; so there are adequate workarounds with a little effort.
A lot of inexpensive headphones have an extension cable with a volume control. You can easily use it for controlling your CD player.
Of course, the saving capability is a good point you mentioned and is not pointed out iout there.
Thanks for the video, very useful!
I agree with all of the other positive comments...thanks for a very helpful, rational, balanced/etc. post! I'm definitely going to get the 10!
Thanks for taking the time! You really helped me decide!
Thank you very much. Your video helped a lot and yes, I almost got the 5 but swapped in time to the 10.
Your points were honest , unbiased and helpful .
Thanks for this important information on the differences, I will take the THR10 instead
Good info man, and thanks for taking the time to do the video. Cheers Scott.
I bought the THR-10 without to know that it is better.
I knew that existed the THR-5 and companies offer less in the previous model so you buy the next.
The THR-10 is fun! It is great. I just dont like the fact that both 5 and 10
don't have a low cut button, sometimes if you have a great bass-player,
you need a low cut button, the eqs of TH-5 and 10 are warm,
the sound has a warmness - great bass frequencies.
I would love a low cut switch-WITH fixed eq,for unwarm sound,
in case you have a bass
My main interest in one of these is to travel with it, so I'm leaning towards the 5 for that reason- the fact that it's even smaller than the 10. Not concerned about the presets or the Aux volume, but- does anyone have an opinion on the THR5's single tone control vs. the 3 band eq on the THR10? Doesn't seem like a huge setback but I've only been able to sample the 10.
Very useful. Now off to get the 10!
i do not own an ipod and i will not be using software to edit presets, so the thr 5 may be ok for me. i consider myself comfortably low tech.
A lack of volume control for the aux is a moot point for the 5, I use my phone, which has it's own volume!! Ta-da!
saved me the trouble, thanks man. THR10 it is.
Thanks for pointing out the differences. I was wondering
I use mine with the Irig HD 2 and it is amazing. Check it out. With the Irig HD 2 there are no more limitations..
Thanks. This answered a lot of questions. Off to the store to check em out.
GEE--thanks dude I was going to go for the five,but you did good here with your information mI ll go for the 10 now...you save my lige.thanks!!!
The 10 also has 5 "custom" channel memory. Check out the new 10c & 10x models too!
Cheers Kermit!
sounds like seth rogan introducing an amp
xD
We just want to hear you sing!
Thanks for the warning. That's ruled out the THR5 for me.
You have an interesting sounding voice. You should do podcasts or maybe comedy acting.
That voice though xD
Thanks for the review, definitely getting a 10 now instead!
Helpful... stay safe all. peace.
Ok, thanks very much, important information👍...do you know by now whether they solved ii in the new firmware, so are the pc-settings saved in the amp when you unplug it from your pc? Thanks Ton
You sound like Gregg Popovich's younger brother. Thanks for the review!
I saw it asked below... did they ever solve the issue with overwriting the factory presets (that's how I'd word it anyway)?
a simple low cut doesn't work
the best switch is lo-cut PLUS fixed eq, to make a nice bell in the spectrum of frequencies. - this can be set- if you wand additional changes you could use the normal eq that already exist in the THR-10,5
the low cut option creates an non interesting sound.
It is great tough if you play with many musicians and you want auto-sound engineering - fast engineering
I've got them both, the 10 is much better. Worth the extra$.
Great video. Thanks.
Did they solve the preset problem with the latest firmware?
I can't decide between the THR10, THR10C & THR10X. It's not a price issue. I'd be happy to get the THR10X if it includes all the features of the straight 10 & 10C. Or perhaps the straight 10 can do things the other 2 models can't? Or maybe the 10C can do things the other 2 models can't? I really wish Yamaha had a difference control panel colour scheme ... the markings on the THR10X are really hard to see. Pass me the flashlight Jeeves...
Jonathan L , I have the normal 10 it is great. If money doesnt matter than buy the X and the C cause one has great high gain amps, the other has great clean amps. Imo the 10 is a bit of both.
Does it run on batteries only? Or is there a AC jack to plug into the a wall supply?
YEAH CAN U ANSWER PLEASE !
you get an ac adapter with it
Godspeed961 google search takes about 9 seonds. -_-
Thanks - glad I could help! :)
Thanks that helps me decide.
thanks, guess it'll be the 10 for me.
Many thanks your review was very useful.
Excellent info, ty 👍🏼
Does the THR 5 of have a line out for recording or is it USB only recording?
The only line out is the headphone jack. It is 1/4" stereo. You can get a Y cable to split it into Left and Right Mono 1/4". Other than that, it's USB - but the computer does see 4 USB inputs: Left and Right Processed, and Left and Right dry (just the clean guitar signal for re-amping).
Love this vid. Thanks dude.
thanks for breakin it down
Hi, could you tell me does this amp have decent enough volume? Do you think you could use it for busking?
it gets really loud inside plugged in. Outside on batteries I'm not sure - way louder than an acoustic guitar, I would think.
@@nasonschooler6807 cool thanks, if it's louder than an acoustic then should work grand for busking
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if the THR10 has a little better low-end.
Hey, I have a THR10 and tried to recording with my Schecter bass in the bass amp modeling, with USB to Mac and Garageband. I found it even I have turned everything all the way up (new battery for the bass as well), it's still in a very low volume in Garageband. (It sounds good from the amp speaker, only low volume on the Garageband recording)
Did you know anything about this issue and can be fixed? thanks.
@@The_Invisible_Self No. I ended up buying a boost pedal for recording.
My dude sounds like the mammoth from ice age
I see what you mean, that's Ray Romano.
Thanks very helpful.
Dang was thinkin i could make do with the 5 but i might just fork out extra for the 10 so i can save my own channels. Custom the eq better ect
yeah - the real power of modelers is you can customize the sound so easily. With the 5, you don't really get that feature.
Nason Schooler not a huge price difference plus i think they use the same carry case xD will be handy for random jams and meetin potential band members if they cant come to me ill go to them and shred
Thank You.
Thanks.
Thank you
Thankyou!
Gordon Freeman!
They are waiting for you Gordon, in the TEST CHAMBER !
Dat evil voice xD good comparisson
Whats wrong With his voice.??
Were you a voice for the muppets?
You look exactly like Gordon Freeman.
I thought this was Gavin seim
Kermit+fozzie!
The THR5 IS an acoustic guitar amp. The thr10 is an electric guitar amp.
+brizZzan THR5a is acoustic. THR5 is electric amp.
ummmmm, ummmm, ummm
