Concerning a boost pedal in front of a 5150, it's pretty much the best thing you can do to those amps. I run my gain around 3.5/4 with an overdrive in front of it and it tightens up the low end SO much, the amp absolutely RIPS!

That particular 5150 is the best sounding one one I ever owned.

I'm just using the Natural Overdrive model that's in my GT5 that I run with the 4 cable method in order to use the Boss clean tones instead of the 5150's clean channel. I had to get the GT5 because you can use the loop on the GT5 and the Overdrives indepently, whereas on the GT6/GT8 you have to set the overdrive to external which is what turns on the loop, and means I would need to buy an external boost pedal, plus more cables, which equals more bullshit, haha...

I tried a Maxon OD808 and an Ibanez TS9 and I got basically the exact same results with each as I did with the overdrive in the GT5, so I just decided to keep doing what I'm doing and save some money.

I've seen a lot of guys use the Maxon boosts with 5150s personally, and the dude from Despised Icon used to use a TS9, but now he runs a Boss GX700 rackmount effects unit which is basically the rackmount version of the GT5, and he uses the same overdrive that I do now.
