There's some members on the forum who swear by them. They've gone the complete rack route. I think if you use the right preamp (tube) like a 9001 or JMP-1, then you can get down and dirty and sound like a true Marshall. Some have even tubed one side with EL34's and the other side with 5881's or 6550's. To me that's like having two different amps and I think it's very versatile. Or it gives you the advantage of a "backup" amp in case one side goes down.

I'm sure you will get some responses from those who use this equipment.
