"Best High Gain Amp Out There"

The Archon 50 is the best high gain amp for the money. It does two things exceedingly well: a high gain tone and a squeaky clean tone. The only thing missing is reverb, but that can easily be added with a pedal through the effects loop.
What distinguishes the Archon from Marshall and Mesa Boogie, in particular, is the way it is built. Marshall and Mesa Boogie use all PCB construction with the tubes, sockets and switches mounted right to the PCB. The Archon is hand wired, so you can change tubes without worrying about cracking the PCB, and, if anything ever goes wrong, you can have someone actually work on the amp.
