Will THIS be a good solid state amp??

[TS808]

Saw that Vox came out with a solid state AC30VR and AC15VR using a solid state front end and their "Valve Reactor" power amp technology like in their Valvetronix series.

This is not a modeling amp, but a solid state version of two Vox Classics with a few different features.

It probably won't nail a tube tone, but the Valvetronix series are probably the most realistic sounding modelers out there.

30 watts solid state?

That doesn't seem like enough.

These aren't 15/30 watters in the traditional ss sense from my understanding but rather rated conservatively and based on a solid state power amp capable of pushing the same volume as a their tube powered AC15/30 amps. The have some clips up now of the AC30VR and it sounds pretty darn good!
