oes,
Currently, i'm using both line 6 spider2 210 & randall rg100sc at my jamming studio. They serve me well for practice 7 for live shows. Both are 100watt. Randall ni sound dia agak heavy, ada chorus effect. Line 6 ni pulak ada built in effect mcm fkanger, delay etc. So you can just set aje sound yg nak kat dia punya bank (4 bank). Satu lagi amp yg aku ada peavey seinfeild (lama) 100w. Ni utk sound yg agak kering sikit, mcm laney gak.

To me brand-X is a very good cheap amp. Good clean, sweet spring reverb and good overdrive for blues. To my ears, it is better and has bigger tone than 15w of ibanez and Marshall. But Vox valvetronix 15w is a step ahead.

i think its not a real tube amp( i guess it just emulates tube sound like 40w marshall valvetronix does). But compare to marshall MG30, VOX Valvetronix 30w is the best bet. Kalau aku tak beli POD XT Live, aku dah beli amp ni (sebenarnya dah reserved pun tp tak jadi angkat). Aku spent lebih sejam test amp ni kat CK. Marshall MG30 kat bentley tu mmg dah selalu sgt aku lenjan. So aku prefer VOX ni lagi. Harga VOX ni dgn Marshall MG lebih kurang jer. Tapi VOX ni offer macam2 features. (modelling ler heheh). Bagus la utk beginner yg nak rekod kat bilik mcm kita ni...
Amp ni boleh dapat dgn harga rm800-900 kat CK. Satu komplen yang aku ada baca dari reviews, amp ni kalau nak digunakan utk homerecording, better guna kaedah miking dari direct line input sebab tone akan jadi nipis sikit kalau guna emulates line out dia.
