Let's see...
My personal amp is a crappy 100-watt 1x15" Crate BFX100. Pros: Cheap, works. Cons: Not the best sound by any means.

I also play at a local church, where I use an SWR WorkingMan's 150-watt 1x12" combo. Pros: Stays at church, so I don't cart it around. Puts out some pretty nice sound.
Cons: Could be louder (I don't go through the PA.)

So those are my "gig rigs."
 
Got an opening gig for a scary metal band in a couple of weeks, so I've been workin' on something suitable. I might throw a second matching 115 underneath the one on the right -- or not. That'd put me at 900 watts for the woofers and 550 for the top box. The 12/6 is just for EFX, so I can leave the other side totally clean, and has it's own 500 watt amp and separate preamp as detailed in my profile. I'll be adding some more noise toys tomorrow too, I reckon.;)
