Looking for a cheap head...I think

ok i just got a 4x12 yahama head and am currently running it through my Peavey Specail 130 combo
im also using a digitech metal master
you see i was having this problem with the peavey, when i used my metal master at high volumes it sounded like shit,the hum took over way too much, i dont mind abit of hum but this was way too much, so i figured that if i got a 4x12 there would be no problem taking all that gain at a loud volume, well guess what,there was, yet again the hum took over, and the distortion just got way to extreme at the high volume
i was wondering if used a head instead of a combo if this would solve my problem
also another thing i think that might be contributing to the problem was the room it is in,its a garge, all concrete
anyways if having a head would solve my problem id sell my peavey for about 400-450 and use that money to buy a head (thats super, cheap i know) so im looking for a used one, if anyone could recomend anything or ansewer my question id be very happy

You mean you have a yahmaha 4x12 cab?? If you want a cheap head check out ebay. You an probably get a 5150 for around 400. I got one for 450. Also check out used gear at your local music store. If you can find anything check out a b-52 the heads are 299 at guitar center and there not that bad at all.

You COULD get a used Marshall MG head, but I don't think you would want it, but the best thing to do is to look on ebay like BLS said.
