Valve Amp - who’s still using them?

I had one and only sold it because of the weight.

It has a fantastic hi-end preamp and a massive powerful sound.

It was my favourite valve amp ever until I got a Stoneham YI-200.

Half the power and half the weight. 😀

Is it called YI200 because they’re from Newcastle 🤔

Did you courier? Or drop it off?

I’m in Ireland so I couriered it over . Not too expensive, I just think one cheap component needed replacing a phase inverter 🤷‍♂️. Certainly sounds louder than before. Beefier . Can’t wait to gig with it 😢

Mine neither - I didn't use it often when gigging and that was a long time ago. Should sell it really, but dont' really want to.

I was toying with the idea of selling mine but decided to get it serviced instead. I sent it to Ashdown where Guy there fixed a few bits and bobs, now I think I'll hang onto it as It sounds great. Like yourself I didn't really gig with it as much and used solid state amps, but when this is all over I intend to make it earn its keep.
