[QUOTE="Elric, post: 160259, member: 4087"] +1. I have the Powerball, Savage, SLO, Uberschall, 800, BEBB, Ecstasy. The only one of those that can do serious metal and genuine cleans is the powerball. The BEBB has a great clean and the 800 can do clean but neither of those will do serious modern metal like the powerball. None of the others have what I would call a true clean channel and the Powerball, being one of the newer modules has separate EQs and two switches per channel to shape things. For tube replacement, it is straightforward, you have to remove the shield which is two screws and removing the tubes you want to be gentle because the boards are a tight fit, but compared to an amp it is super easy on the module. For the V1 or the power amp tubes in the other units, it is probably a major pain once it is racked. For the cab out, it is quite good for an analog out. Definitely good enough for an FOH feed live; for recording you could always add an IR with a plugin for more options. Everything feels very high quality to me. [/QUOTE]
