I'm liking all this positive reinforcement
It'll be an improvement over my 18, that's all I'm looking for at this point until I have me money saved up for the avatar stack.
Oh I should say that I'm ONLY using the combo as is. A few above me are running extension cabs so they're getting the full 307W, but I'm only getting 180W or so.
I'm actually running the amp flat with only the EQ button pushed and it's amazing. For comparison, I used to use an Ampeg B100R and I was always fussing with the mids, boosting the bass, cutting treble etc.. none of that with the Ashdown. I really view it as plug 'n play. Though I'm running compression right now but only for a James Jamerson/Bruce Thomas type compressed tone. I'm using an Ashdown Dual Band which I'm actually selling (I want more squash than it can give for me), and waiting on a Jacques Fat Burner.
