Not to be a smart-mouth, but "used."

Even going used, I'd look at an Ampeg BA300 115 or 210. Great Ampeg sound, reasonable volume (decently loud), reasonable price.

Do you need to keep up with a band, or is this going to be a living room/bedroom amp?

+1 for craigslist

Peavey, Carvin, and some others go for pretty cheap around here and can put together a pretty solid rig. Sacrifice is that it's going to weigh a bit more and possibly be bigger than the newer options.
