As an avid listener of Singer Songwriter music, I would go with the Rogue. While I've heard both brands months appart, neither is bad. As always it's your ears. I was at a now former dealer in Fort Worth awhile back listening to several pieces of equip with a large varity of cds. I happen to bring one of my favorite cds of Hans Theesink and while listening we decided to switch from a ss amp (sorry I don't remeber which one) to a Rogue (I think the 90) and the one thing I noticed was that his voice just....well... seemed deeper and had more chest in it. I do not own a tube amp but do use a tube pre. Things are just a bit warmer with tube and I think there is more wood in accoustic guitars with tube. Good luck and happy listening.
