After the honeymoon review

I bought an Ashdown CTM30 and I loved it so much I bought an Ashdown Little Bastard 30 (LB30) and ………I Love them more every time I use them.
GK Fusion 800/210 combo purchased a couple of years ago and love it more and more every time I play it out! Indoors or outdoors! Tone monster with a huge palate! Sounds great with passive and active basses! And so light weight at 40#. If needed can add my old 410MBE, but haven't had to yet - the combo by itself gets plenty loud by itself!
I bought an amp and it's good enough
I'm sure I could do better, but it's light and easy to move and I'm the only one who cares what it sounds like

SWR BabyBlue II (twenty two years ago) … love it just as much as I did on Day 1, when I first tried it in the store 
I bought an Aguilar ToneHammer 500 over a year ago, play it every week and keep on loving it. That drive circuit is something else. I am sure somebody sold his soul to the devil for that one and made a pretty good deal.
Believe it or not, the Peavey MiniMax still totally impresses me after all these years.
Genz Benz Streamliner 900 and I love it more every day. Honestly, it's my second one and I've never found an amp. I like better.
Mesa WD 800 Subway 1x15 and Stingray Special 4H all bought Summer 2023
NS Designs Wav4 EUB and love it more every time I use it.
After alot of trial, error, (time and money), I was fortunate to find two class D heads that I love more everytime I gig with one or the other.
A Gallien Krueger MB800 Fusion and a Genz Benz 9.0., (I do have plans to audition one of Mesa's new BD800 heads when they become available in my area.)

Happy with the current rig set up. Little Mark Ninja 58R with GB Uber 4x10 cabinet.
A NOS (new old stock) Hartke LH 500.
Bought it for shows as a workhorse and never disappointed me. Transparent while beefy, thunderous while able to sing on delicate notes and a vibrating sustain thanks to the vacuum tube preamp section.
This monster really stopped my quest for a good powerful amp, to my surprise.
My Traynor SB 500H does a great job as a backup but doesn't have the sweetness of the LH 500.

Very happy with this Bergantino and Darkglass setup.
It took a while of experimenting and being patient, but overall still very happily married.

Warwick Gnome i-Pro head.
Small, lightweight, clean, powerful, durable, has a near silent fan, and accurately replicates whatever signal I feed into the front end.
