shuttle 6.0 or shuttle 9.0

Im not sure where this need for the 9 has come from in the last few weeks, If you want one and can afford to pay the extra then you may as well treat yourself but my 6 with the GB 2x12T NEO cabinet is perfect and I cant see any situation where I would need more volume. I use the head through the rehersal spaces ashdown 4x10 which is better than using their head and take my cab to gigs 600W is plenty for almost any situation. I am always too loud and going over the p.a in some fairly large venues with loads of volume to spare. The 3 is a little small for gigs compared to the 6 but the more is more thing can go on forever (TC have done a 2400Watt version! Why?) I cant use the big cab for practice as the volume has to be up too far to sound right so I can imagine situations where the 9 is too loud for practice with wasted power at every gig you do?

I completely agree - I guess I got a 9 so as to have an amp that would have all the volume I'd ever need but the 6 is way loud enough - can't say I'll ever need all 900 of those watts but they are there if I do - and the amp loves all three of my basses - I love it - end of.
