I have actually heard a peavy 5150 II before. I was about 5 metres in front of some. I just need to to have some personal opinions from other people. Only problem with sound clips is that the settings on the amp could be different to what you may like it to be set up as.
By virtue of their electrical properties, tubes generate a special waveform when they're saturated, which is why tube engineering has tremendous tonal advantages over solid state or DSP solutions, particularly for crunch and lead sounds. Tubes enter the saturation zone gradually or softly, which lends tube-driven tone its trademark yet totally unique character.
