My solution was to use my Line6 Spider 212 150W amp to practice
. Master volume on just over halfway and could be heard easily. The tube 100W is louder than the solidstate 100W makes me laugh. That damn spider is LOUD!!! (yes I know it's 100W v's 150W but as we know there should be little difference in volume). You get nowhere near as much ballshake when standing in front of the Spider (it's so thin compared to the Rev) but it will make you deafer quicker.
