Description
Docs
From the same factory as the original TS9. The same hand wired analog circuitry. The same warm Tube Screamer overdrive and sustain. The TS9DX also offers 3 new settings for increased low-end crunch: +, Hot, and Turbo, all of which maintain the original TS9 tonal integrity.
About the Ibanez Tube Screamer
There is no single stomp box more famous than the Ibanez Tube Screamer. Thanks to tubelike distortion, smooth sustain, fat tone, and acclaim by artists too numerous to mention, the Tube Screamer has been and continues to be the world's most popular solid-state overdrive. Ss much so that after production of the TS9 ended in 1984, used TS9s were going for as much as 4 times their original price at vintage shows a few years later.

Ibanez TS9DX Turbo Tube Screamer Overdrive Pedal Reviews
10 out of 10
"Spend the Extra $9.00 and get the TS-9DX vs. the TS-9"
Quality:
Built like a Tank. Solid and smooth knobs, no pop's or crack's when engaging it.
Value:
The TS-9 is a great value. The TS-9DX is an exceptional value, for all the different tonal possibilities, for about $9.00 more.
Desirability:
What can I say? It's a pedal, not a custom made guitar. It's knobs and footswitch are in the same place as any other pedal. It's butt-ugly green, but who's going to come up and scruitinize my pedal board. Nice large foot switch, smooth, and no suprises.
Sound:
I have a TS-9, and a TS9DX, the latter I bought as a back-up for road trips. The TS9DX sounds exactly like the TS-9, in TS-9 mode. As a matter of fact, it's the same circuitry and components. The +, hot, and Turbo modes will give you a greater pallete of tones to play with and choose from. If you're in the market for a TS-9, get the DX for about 9 bucks more. The only overdrives that I found that even come close is the VisualSound's Route 66, and the Voodoo Labs sparkle drives, and each tries to emulate the TS-9, with great, but copycat circuitry. Unless playing super clean, one of these pedals is on all the time. Couldn't live the Blue's without it.
Support:
I have dealt with Ibanez, however, not concerning the TS-9's, but with guitar's. They were great, dealing with me. Didn't try the "your fault" bit with me. Sent one back, got a new one a week later.
Overall:
If there is ever a better, not equal, but better OD in a pedal configuration, I might buy it. With decent treatment, though, these will last for ever. There are many shops around that offer repairs and mod's to these (TS-808, TS-9's) if you ever want them. Popular enough, that some shop's only work on these pedals.

"Awsome warm tone for your SRV, Allman Brothers, Black Crowes tunes."
Feature:
I can get every warm sound I want from this unit!
Quality:
Seems to be a solid unit. Haven't dropped it yet, but looks like it would stand up to normal use.
Value:
Paid $109. Its worth it!
Desirability:
I want it for the sound. Looks are good, but it doesn't really matter much what my floor pedal looks like.
Sound:
I'm using a Fender CyberTwin with a Les Paul Classic on the neck pickup for a great Allman Brothers sound. I use the TS9DX to add a nice warm punch for solo's and endings. This has a sweet classic/warm tube sound using the TS9 setting and works great with my Phase 90 for that SRV sound with my strat.
Support:
No problems...
