Lots of good amps out there...hard to go wrong. Try some out, think about it, the BUY!

There is this new little monster from Marshall......

All tube (6V6), 15 watt or 7.5 watt switchable with a 12" speaker. Tons of gain.

I tried one out last week and it was pretty amazing. I bought it's big brother, the DSL40C

Tex, what is an average street price for one of these? Thanks man.

$ 599.99 street, but right now (as of 4/3/13) Musicians Friend has a 13% off, no tax, free shipping.

I think you have to call to get them to apply the discount but that would make it $ 521.99 shipped to your door.

Thanks for all the input guys...gave me more to research and think about...ended up buying a powered monitor to run with the xt live. I've owned it for almost 10 years now so I guess I was a bit bored with it but I think this will keep me happy until my final amp decision is made.
