How do you find the TTE 800 vs the Tube 800 in sound and power? Expecially with the 804, I own the same cab, so...

In terms of power, I've never had to think about it because they both have an incredible headroom threshold. So unlike previous amps I've owned where I've adapted the eq to 'push' certain notes out, whilst compromising others, on both 800 models I can set any tone combination at any volume.
Tonally, they're both very different. The LM Tube 800 has a low-mid immediacy, whereas the TTE 800 has a softer vintage vibe.
I've used the TTE with the 4x8, but also two 1x12s and lately the big MB 4x10.
I thought the 1x12s would be the best compatibility being a vintage vibe like a Bassman or old SVT, but I found that I couldn't get the tightest low notes.
The 4x8 was the better combination because my 4x10 is 4ohm so I barely get the master volume past 10 o'clock without front of house telling me to reduce my stage volume! It's very quick to get a tone together. Fantastic with flatwounds too
