I know it's probably a long shot for the music board..but, just thought I'd give the question a go.

I haven't been able to sample one and before I spend $2000+ on a new amp was just going to throw it out. On YouTube the comparisons to other amps are there but you never know what Mic is being used (sometimes not 57s), settings, positions of mic, actual cab etc.

I've been a user of the triple rectifier and the 5150. Bogner uberkab 4x12. Never used randall, or this amp, so I'd be buying blind.

Anyways, info on the satan for any interested.

Channel – 4 mode 120 Watt
All tube head with Active/Passive inputs, preset “kill” boost mode, 6irth&6rind- Low/High Frequency Gain controls, Sweep function provides variable tone stack frequency point control.

2 ButtonLED footswitch included.

What draws you to this amp over your Boogie Triple Rec or 5150? And would you consider going boutique since you have a price point of $2k. If youre looking for an insane metal head, check out the Splawn Nitro w/KT88's. That thing is a beast. Not very familiar with this head (although I know the name garnered some controversy awhile back when they announced it). Not saying it wont sound incredible, but $2k is a lot to shell out for a non boutique head that you haven't played before.

Been using them steady for a few years. They are tried and true, but I'm wanting to change the sound up. May also purchase an Orange Ppc4x12 cab.

Was thinking about ENGL or the Randall there, doing as much message board research as I can..hoping to find something to convince me. lol
