Tube Amp recommendations

Thanks for the info all. Is there a local Ceriatone dealer?

I have a Laney LC15R, got it from HK. The reverb on the amp is pretty good, and sounds pretty sweet with the cleans as well. A plus point for this amp is that it has a nice bluesy break-up drive that will pair well with a clear overdrive (e.g. bd2) and push it towards the creamy or crunchy sort of tone. And the amp is one of the few that takes pedals very very well, which may not be the case for the other tube amps mentioned.

Plug it into a big cab... you'll hear magic from that amp...:twisted:

Ok thanks all!

Would a Marshall DSL 401 be way too loud for home use?

it depends on how nice your neighbours are.
for mine, i think even a 5w is too loud

Hey all, anyone can suggest a 5-15w tube amp for home use?
Budget around 500-700+

Genres - classic/hard rock and some metal

Thanks all =)

Do you have a mac or PC? If it's only for home use why don't use a simulator and plug it to your home stereo? Save the cash for something else? You can use your Headphones and not worry about neighbors.

that's subjective- even a 5W amp cranked up might prove to be too loud given the circumstances.
