They are cute, especially with the additional extension speaker

 

Cute!?! The player in this clip is cute...I didn't even see the guitar the first five time I watched it. [flapper]

I have an Orange Dual Terror (DT30) and it just kills! The Tiny Terror channel is the standard Tiny Terror circuit but the Fat Channel (which I like better) has much more in tone to offer.

30 watts, to 15 watts to 7 watts. It sounds great on its own but I push it just a bit more with an Xotic EP Boost. Great Amp! My plan is to pick up a Dark Terror and A/B the two with the DT30 doing my mid-gains and the Dark Terror for the brutal hi-gains. The only "Cons" to the Dual Terror is it's kind of heavy for a "lunchbox amp". You will be fooled once you snatch to pick it up and find that it is very much a real deal tube amp just without the wood box! I couldn't see someone throwing this in it's carry bag on their shoulder and walking across town or riding the subway with it. The other is no FX Loop for those who like to use them. It's old school front of the amp signal chain. That doesn't bother me as I'm used to doing with or without an FX Loop.

 

I also like the sound of the Vox Night Train, the Blackstar HT5H and the smaller 1 watt version. The Mesa Micro-Rectefier and Trans Atlantic...VHT has a good one too. I've liked most of the stuff I've heard. I'm waiting for the new Orange OD-15 that was shown at NAMM this year too. That's a cool little head.

I have a blackhear handsome devil 15 watt and love it. It really nails blues and rock. I find large amps are too inconvenient and expensive. Lunchbox amps are also fun to mod if you can find the time

I had a Tiny Terror head for a few years. I enjoyed it, but I didn't end up keeping it. I swapped it for a VHT Special 6 Ultra head. I like the VHT's tone more, but it is a bigger box. In fact, I'm going to have to ditch the 1-10 cab I used for little gigs with the Tiny Terror and get a 1-12 to fit under the VHT. So the Special 6 Ultra head is not physically small, but it's only 6 watts with power scaling so it rocks nicely at all volumes. Perfect "little" amp head even though it's not little.

I saw a band where the guitarist had a six stack "wall" of Marshall Lead 12 Micro Stacks, LOL - it didn't sound bad either.

The ZT Lunchbox is a solid state amp. It would take magic to get 200 watts out a tube amp of that size.

That's what I said. I don't think he is referring to a ZT Lunchbox but a just a small amp head. I guess.

Yep, need something that IS NOT a 100 watt Marshall to play through at home.
