    With all the hubbub going around with the release of the All-Tube YBA100, Traynor's also got a killer class-d super-power combo amp lurking in the wings.

    I wish they'd listed dimensions and weight, but yeah, that's a lot of combo!

    ...and they need matching cabinets to put under it, especially a 115.

    Interesting, it looks like it has a slight tilt back angle.

    These do look pretty great. Wish they would reissue the Mono Block (or an amp voiced like it)

    My Traynor SB115 is truly everything I could want in a combo. I am thinking this new Big Block takes it up wrung or two for those that need it. I have my eye out for a used SB110 or SB112 for quiet venues. Thanks Traynor!

    I had the previous generation but returned it due to a bad DI. It was also rat fur (they fixed this) and less power. It sounded decent and reminded me a little of the my old SWR Workingman's 15 combo (except lighter and louder).

    My SB110 was originally bought to help reinforce an AGB but has proven itself over and over again at small gigs and practices. It's super light, easy to carry, packs well in a trunk of a car and is friggin' loud for a small amp!

    Same here. Need something that'll slide under the chair I'm sitting on at informal jams'n such. I generally sit on my SB115 at those types of party functions.

    I'd like to hear more about these as well. They seem to have flown under the radar with the release of YBA 100.
