My search continues for a bedroom volume ss amp. At first I was comparing the new Vox valvetronix 50 watter to the Peavey Vypyr 75 watter. Vox 50 cost $400.00, Vypyr 75 cost $300.00, for me the Vypyr was starting to edge out the Vox due to feature set and price, I thought quality of sound was good on both.
However....my local GC brings in a used but mint 2004 Vox AD120VT with blue cloth grill that sounds really rich in comparison and seems a bit more tweakable due to it's lack of locked in presets. Cost: $500.00 (I'll ask for them to bring that down) I only had a few minutes with each today and was wondering what the general consensus was on these blue vox's.
Are there any major problems associated with these amps, any know glitches or other need to know stuff ?
Are they considerwed by those who use them as tonally superior than the new ones ? I worry that being solid state technology that it may already be a dinosaur and vastly inferior to the new brood - although in my brief time with I didn't hear that being the case.
Is $500.00 a fair price or out of line ?
Any help is greatly appreciated and welcomed positive or negative.
Thanks
