10 watts tube amp

Not forgetting to mention the new VOX AC4TV, unlike its bigger cousins its really a stellar kickass amp for pedals.
 
mesa boogie express 5:25 or 5:50(you can switch 5 watt or 25/50).
mesa boogie lonestar special 5/15,30 watt
orange dual terror 7/15/30 watt.
 
Hi, can any good soul here recommend me a good
small watts tube electric gutar amp ranging from 5 to 10 watts max?

If possible I need a clean tone direct from the amp for my
plucking session, where as for
metal stuff I can juz add a pedal?

Laney Lionheart 5w.
 
How about a 7/15 watt amp?

+1 for the The Orange Tiny Terror. At 7 watts, this all-tube crunches easily in your bedroom. The warmth and realism coming from this amp is incredible: it can dial minutely to the lowest instance of growl and still have enough gain for metal. You can clean up with your guitar volume knob or, bringing the gain on the amp to 11 o'clock or below, you get a clean, bright, open sound.

The tone control is very subtle; it only cuts and boosts a narrow and particular range, but spread over the entire movement of the knob it makes it capable of great precision.

When switched over to 15 watt, the frequency range seems to open up and only then, in comparison the 7 watt mode sounds vaguely veiled. Otherwise, the same musicality is in both modes.

It comes with a standby mode (flick between 7 and 15 watt) that extends your tubes' lives by letting the amp warm up section by section. After waiting for 30 seconds, Orange says, you may begin play.

It's loud. It can choose to growl early but it can also get very loud, clean. Easily more than enough power for a club setting.

If you want a good alternative to the tiny terror, try the new Vox Night Train. Its much cheaper at only 600 bucks, able to do all of the above (trust me, i've tried both amps) and at the same time takes pedals better.

However, you wont be able to procure one for the time being at city music due to the current batch being sold out - gotta wait. You can preorder it though if keen :)
