V55HD Infinium : if you want an all valve, marshall sounding amp for a fraction of the cost buy this

Simply put, If you want an all valve marshally sounding amp for a fraction of the cost, buy this.

This amp takes pedals well.

This amp does vintage (70's) rock and blues incredibly well.

Clean channel is awesome

This amp does not give a newer metal sound so buy some pedals to get that.

The clean chanel to me sounds like a vox ac30 dialed back, the dirt channel is 70's rock all the way (free/bad company/acdc/black sabbath).

Excellent for anything except modern metal (this can be achieved with some pedals however).

pro's

power can be cut to 22 watts for "quieter" playing/different voicing,

fantastic price

more than loud enough to play in a band over drums with no need to mic up.

awesome sound

valves last ages (infinium technology)

cons

valve amp so sounds okay quiet, but better louder.
