Has anyone used any of the Rocktron Velocity power amps? I know that they are solid state which isnt exacly what im looking for but im wondering how they actually sound with an RM4?

MarcoR said:I think at bedroom volume a Velocity would be fine. I considered it for a lightweight solution at one point. I recall it was designed by Bruce as well and have read that it has a bit of the Egnater power amp sound.
I went with a Matrix instead and it sounded great for solid state power and pretty awesome at low volume.
The thing is that when you start getting louder, solid state amps just don't do what tubes do and they sound harsh, lifeless and just don't breath like tubes. At low apartment/bedroom volumes it really doesn't matter either way as far as tubes vs solid state and in some cases, SS might be the winner.
