"The best tube amp available for under $300"
Feature:
More than normal on an amp in this price range - one volume, and 3 band eq

Quality:
VERY well made, especially for a couple of hundred dollars.

Desirability:
I love it!

Sound:
A "10" for the value - with the head and cabinet you get a great approximation of plexi tones in a 5w package.

Ease of Use:
It's a single channel amp - easy.

Support:
Very good

           9 out of 10
"None more bang for the buck!"
Feature:
pretty good features (3 band EQ, 3/5 watt setting, 5 plugs for cabinets of different Ohm ratings). It could have a master volume to get a perfect score, but this thing is loaded for what it is.

Quality:
Looks great all around... you wouldn't know it is made in China by looking at it.

Value:
Where else can you get this much bang for the buck? No where, that where... It's none more black...heart.

Desirability:
It's totally cool, small and loud with a great natural OD.

Sound:
As you probably already know, there are two settings, a 3 watt and a 5 watt setting. The 5 watt seems a little brighter and more over-driven when the volume is on 10. I really like the sound when it is cranked, but it isn't quite loud enough for practice (we have a LOUD drummer) and frankly it is too loud for my apartment... but the clean tones are very nice in my opinion.

Ease of Use:
As easy as they come.

Support:
no idea

Overall:
To my knowledge, there's nothing out there that compares. BH is coming out with a 15W, a 1W and a 100W amp, and I will be taking a look at these as well!
