Right now I'm using my old Peavey megabass head because the BL insists I use his POS Peavey 1820 cab because he alleges it has a 18" JBL in it. :/
Kinda surprised at the results. Genz Benz is getting more love than I expected, and Markbass less than I expected.
I use all EA, so I said boutique to go with my boutique Fender P bass with flats

Carvin BX1500 into BRX2.10 (small to med gigs)
Carvin BX1500 into BRX2.10 over a 1X15 (big gigs)

I use a Bugera 1960 as my main gigging amp. Since that wasn't an option, I chose Behringer (since it's all basically the same company), and apparently I'm the only one on this board who had the bawlz to admit to using a Behringer amp. 
Boutique: EA Micro 300 w/ Wizzy 10
I wasn't sure if EA was "Boutique" or "Other" not, but after searching the thread for "EA" and for "Euphonic" [DEL]and coming up empty[/DEL], I'm voting it as Boutique. [DEL]Unless somebody posted only his/her EA model name without the brand name[/DEL]...
[Edit: reread thread, and EA came in a few posts before mine; not sure why my thread search missed it c'est la guerre]
...I'm [NOT] first in with EA, Seanm is.

This warning label is contradictory, no/yes?
According to my logic: You turn "on" your amp in "standby" mode; when it's all toasty and you're good to play you "turn OFF standby" and then in between sets you leave the amp "on" but would "turn standby ON" while the amp is not in actual use.

Back to your regular scheduled thread topic:
More Traynor-love is needed here.

Streamliner 900 into an Accugroove Tri-115. Modern to vintage tone from the amp, accuracy, loud and light weight from the cab. Total together is less than 50 lbs.

TC electronic RH 450, RS 112, RS 212, and soon a BG250-208. Great amps. (Ja, jeg elsker min dansk forstærker!)
Aggy TH 500 for me. Usually pushing a pair of GK neo112's or a Heritage 810. I also have a old GK 400rb that sounds incredible.
I have a few amps, I marked GenzBenz, because I use it the most. One rehearshal a week, one gig a week.
Ampeg SVP + Poweramp and a
Peavey TMax I use not that often. Two rehearshal a month, two gigs a month.
Ibanez Promethean 5110 daily use for practising. I use it in the studio and for bar gigs.
I have a Markbass LM II I use seldom, only if I go "ultralight" on bigger stages or as backup - amp.
I have a Marshall MB 4410 I use seldom for playing it by myself, but I use it for giving lessons. My students play with that amp. It really sounds fine. No flaming about the Marshall MB-Series! I played that heavy mofo half a year because my beloved SWR Redhead went up in smoke, and there was no other amp available in a short time. Played the MB 4410 until I had a new stack together.

didn't see anything for those who use component rigs.

Wow, over 400 votes, and I'm the first Yamaha user.
Yamaha B50-115.
It's old and its heavy - just like me!

Euphonic Audio iAMP 350 combo- the best amp EA ever made IMO-also I have an EA nl 2-10 series 3 cab if the need arises. Euphonic Audio makes incredible gear.
Hartke LH500 into a Hartke Hydrive 112 (for now). Will likely expand to a second Hydrive 112 when budget allows.
