I bought my " Minnie" about a year ago, gigged infrequently, rehearsed same, never missed a beat, some issues with to hot an input signal, just turned the bass down, volume up. Never been past 6 'o clock into a 2 cab ( 8 Ohms each) 4 Ohm load. Very subtle in the way the controls interact a bit too subtle for me, but I like leaving the tone controls flat let the bass take over. It's not my favourite sounding head which is why I considered moving it on not long after purchase but reneged and pulled the 'feeler'. Still considering moving it on though as I am preferring the Eden parametric' option on the WT...... All in all an excellent head for an articulate Bass Player, which I am not ( playing wise of course)....
