I have one of these - bought as B Stock but not at that bargain price.
Absolutely stunning amp and I don't miss the compressor at all.
Surprisingly clean if you need it and incredibly loud. It does a lot more than it implies on the tin. It's very very impressive and fantastically well built.
Also more visually understated in real life than in advertising shots. I think it's one of Ashdown's best looking solid state amps.
