[quote name='Kubs' post='386807' date='Jan 20 2009, 09:58 PM']But my opinion stays - keep GK Iam conviced that GK rule solidstate range well, ampeg is valve king [/quote]
I think that is way too simplistic, I think Trace Elliot, Peavey, Ashdown and many others do very good solidstate amps.
To me the only things you should concider when buying an amp should be:
1. Does it sound the way you want?
2. Is it loud enough/powerful enough for what you need?
3. Can you afford it?
What else matters?
