I'll give the guitar sites a go, though, thanks. :)[/quote]

eh?

If it's a stock DR103, it's 100W rated output. They sound louder than equivalent rated solid state amps though.

Valves always (afaik) triple the stated output, all my valve guitar heads have, as have any endorsement bass heads (which are valve).

good old duck valves!

Just to chime in valves can SOUND 3X as loud they do not do 3X the stated wattage even when cranked into oblivion.
