Well. This sounds surprisingly well. I also bought the miniwatt 2013 tube amp but that one distorts at higher volumes and sounds more muddy. The bass on this amplifier is much stronger than the TA2024 amp I was using and also stronger than the miniwatt. It was a welcome addition since they lacked bass! However if you find that you have plenty, maybe it's not the best choice. Tough ofcourse it might just be a good amplifier and the others couldn't handle it.
