Just found this.... Ashdown might have a winner here. Unfortunately it's only limited run of 50..

I dont really need another amp but damn may have to get one of these to go with my LB 30 :-)

Words cannot explain how much I love my LB30...I think I'd just rather get another 30 for a backup

Looks tasty!

I can't imagine Ashdown going to all the trouble to make just 50 of these. Probably a run of Made-in-Brits before they start Chinese production.

I'm definitely on the edge for choosing a new lunchbox amp. Between this, the Orange TB500, and the Markbass TTE500, we've got some great choices!

I'll take one of each, thank you.

send and return in front? that's a very stupid design.

How so?

My amp's got send and return both on the front and on the back.

Imo, the beauty of the LB-30 is in the fact that its got an all tube power section. I don't 'really' see the point of this. They've already got hybrid heads pretty similar.
YMMV
Oh, I suppose the class D pwr section is new. Might be cool
I'll keep my LB-30 thanks!
