Hi all, I could use some advice
.
I've been playing for quite some time now and recently I joined a band. Now I discovered my current amp can't keep up with the drummer and guitarist.
At this point I'm using a Line 6 LowDown 110 (75 watts). I'm afraid I blew the thing so I'm in the market for something new anyway.
Basically I'm looking for a roadworthy amp which isn't too heavy (50 pounds maximum).
I basically have two options at this point; a used Hughes and Kettner QC412 combo, or I can go for a new Terror and 2 used SVT112HF cabs.
I'd prefer a single 112, but the seller wants to sell 'em both at once. On the other hand, I can leave one cab at practice, and the other at home. The Orange is portable anyway so that might be a nice replacement for the Line 6. And I can use them both when gigging, which is safer anyway (backup + wattage).
The downside; the H&K route is about 550€, the Orange + Ampeg will go for 1050€ (520 for the amp, 550 for 2 cabs).
Any suggestions on this? Looking further is an option aswell, and I don't really need a really good practice amp at home, so the second cab does come in handy, but is no necessity.
Cheers and thanks in advance for any replies!
