Hello there...I'm sure this topic has been beat to death here, but I'd love to here the most recent opinions for my fellow gear hounds!
I'm going to give the Axe FX one last shot playing out...this time with a dedicated tube power amp...SS sounded awesome, but I couldn't get it to cut through the mix/loud enough with my drummer, FRFR really didn't do it for me, and running it through the return of my Mark IV was pretty cool.....not very practical though, and though the tubes helped, I felt like there was a lot of unnecessary coloring going on with this method.
So, how do these two power amps compare? I've always ran 100W amps in the past, which inclines me towards the 2/90/2...never really dealt with 50 watters...I play high gain metal/hard rock with a HARD hitting drummer.
Appreciate your input!
Eric
