Great thread to revive. Missed it first time around.

Combos:
Fender Rumble 200 v3
Peavey Minx

Heads:
Road 220 (most folks aren't familiar. 70's solid state head made by Rickenbacker, mine cooked long ago. Maybe I'll have someone fix it someday).
Peavy Max Preamp (paired with a Carvin DCM 1000 power amp, too damn heavy to move much, but sounds splendid)
Genz Benz Shuttle 9.0

Cabs mixed with either head from time to time, all wired for 4ohms)
Road 2-15 loaded with Carvins
Schroeder 12PL
Genz Benz NeoX 212t

Once the Genz stuff showed up, that's all I've wanted to use.
