Hi

thank you again for your input

I will try them out this week-end. I have a question though, as I understand tube amps deliver their best tones and crunch when pushed, and they don't sound as good at low volume. I have been told to go for the lowest wattage possible, ie 1 to 5watts. Do you agree with that or is a 15watt tube amp ok for home use ?

Lastly, since you know the kind of music I will play and for home use, what would you personnally recommend : a tube, solid-state, modelling amp ? Do you have 1amp of each category that is according to you the best, with the wattage you think would suit my needs.

Many thanks in advance, this is (a bit) overwhelming
