Francarus said:So what do you guys think? What's the best amp, around 50 watts, for metal? I'm looking at a VOX AD30VT, and bypassing the marshall MG30DFX...also, I heard the Roland cube would be good, too...so screw it...tell me what you think! Thanks-

Framus Cobras and VHT Pitbulls are also great amp heads but getting up there in price...around $2000+. Another great amp is the Engl 100 (if you are lucky enough to find one) or the 120. One of the best sounding swede metal albums, in my opinion as far as tone, was Predators Portrait by Soilwork. They used 5150 with an Engl Savage 100. I also believe they used a marshall for some of the solo tones but I dont remember what model...probably the jcm 800.
