Anything with "Fender" and "tube" in the same sentence.

The best amps don't even appear on your list!

My personal choice is old V-series [FONT=Ariai]Ampeg[/FONT].

And late-60's / early 70's Traynors kick Marshall butt!

Why don't I see Engl on that list? Or Laney..is there a limit on how many options you can have in a poll and you had to pick and chose your options or something?

A lot of the peavys are good eg 5150, triple xxx and a few others.
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.

So far, the best amp I've ever played has been my Peavey Classic 50. As for shear peal the paint off the walls brutalness, I'd have to say my Peavey Triple XXX head and Marshall 1960A cab. Between these 2 amps I can get any type of tone I want from crisp clean to 80's rock to modern metal and everything in between. And all costing under what you would pay for a high-class botique(doesn't botique basically describe a high quality/dollar amp?) amp, i.e. mesa, bogner, vht, etc.......

Good call on the Peavey classic 50. I didn't have as much use for mine as I thought I would, so I didn't keep it, but I really liked it.
