Got my invite and ordered a passive wedge and a passive straight cab. Wondering what poweramps are popular around here? Any recommendations?

I want the same things as everyone else: relatively lightweight (if possible), endless headroom, minimal coloration...

Thanks!!! :)
 
I tried the MB-50 this weekend. It's pretty awesome. Had it hooked up to the Axe-Fx (speaker sims off) and some guitar cabs, also to the input of the wedges. Exact words: "A Star is Born".
 
There is a new power amp out by Crown - the XLS with their "DriveCore" technology - Class D, 440 watts per channel into 8 ohms, and 10lbs. Venture to say though, nobody's tried it yet...since it's pretty new. One thing I'm concerned about is the potential fan noise...forced air...anyone happen to have seen it or tried it?

...otherwise...many people here using the Art SLA-1 and SLA-2. Also some Carvin users as well.

Are you just trying out one of each, then going to return one for the other of same? Or will you "mix and match"

Gonna keep em both hopefully. Wanted a wedge and a straight-front for different applications.
