What's the Best Amp Ever?

What's The Best Amp Ever..?

One that doesn't go tits-up halfway through a gig.

[Wiro]

Too big a question for too small a wallet and too short a lifetime.
I'm only playing bass for around 35 years now.
Wanted to try so much more but not everything was within reach.
Where others want the signal to be compressed, for me the bigger the dynamic range the better. I wanna be able to hear what the fingers are doing.

Walter Woods is a serious contestor.

GML2020 through a Crown XTi2 would be pretty amazing...

Ended up with Jule Monique and Bergantino IP112er, which combination leaves all others (Trace Elliot, Ampeg, Acoustic Image, Genz Benz etc.etc) far behind:

The best BASS amp to reproduce what you put in: Eden WT800B! Definitely! Bass preamp? Eden WP100 Navigator! Definitely!
The best bass amp that colours your tone: Fender Studio Bass! Absolutely!

Hm, Hamburg is not that far from Groningen. Can you suggest some places where a heavy rock band is welcome? Then I could try to arrange a gig (or two ) at your home town. Would be nice!
