Maybe, but is it worth the time, to read this Monster thread of meanwhile 139 pages?

A very personal choice. As far as I'm concerned, whenever there are a bunch of guys who gather round with "tape measures"... it is a waste of time after a couple of chuckles.

I was watching that thread for a few days.
Several guys nailed the RF tone using other amps and techniques but that wasn't good enough, it's like perpetual motion.
That place is getting closer and closer to Harmony Central every day......
Hey guys, I'm new to this forum. Great stuff to be found here, for sure. Relating to this thread, I'm a new owner of the TR Classic Type 3. So far I find it to have killer tones! It's not a dumble-voiced amp at all...at least to my ears. There are very nice early fender to marshall tones all over the place in that that amp. Also, takes pedals very well.

WOW, what questions! I have never played a dumble...just heard one...and many recordings of them. No, never built an amp, but would love to try sometime.
Am I not suppose to be here? I'll leave if needed. I was just looking for a forum that I could learn and talk about higher-end gear without being pigeon-holed as a "cork sniffer".

Anyway, thanks for letting me in!
You are describing what a good DUMBLE or D'clone can sound like, in addition to those early fender/marshall sounds it can also get what you call "dumble-voiced" sounds. I'm suprised your TR doesn't get them - I think those amps were based on the Dumble design.
