Hello dhcod! Try the New Starke Fiera4. It is voiced to sound like a tube amp.got mine today and it is fine indeed. I have six of the precious version and tis one is better. There wasn't much to improve, that's why I have six of the older version! It not a lightweight in any sense of the word. They do have a return policy. And its not one of those $10,000+ amps. Try it, you can't lose much other than a little time.
Enjoy the music.
