OK, this is a first. I'm actually awarding a 10 for the sound of a product. I'm a critic through and through and almost never award 10s. But let's talk about why I'm giving a 10. I've owned a Mesa-Boogie Dual Rectifier, a Marshall JCM Slash model and a Marshall JCM-800. I'm well familiar with how vacuum tubes behave and sound. I guarantee you, that unless you have created a block in your mind based on the sheer psychology that this amp isn't genuine, I'd have to say only a fool would spend thousands to own all the originals. This amp is equipped with a tube power amp which models the behavior of the power amps in the originals, as well as the preamps. This thing responds to every dynamic nuance of your pick, and your volume knob. It has harmonic overtones and literally cops one of the fullest sounds out there. It makes a Line 6 Vetta II sound like a Crate, and I speak from experience because I just got rid of one. Genuine tube sound, through and through. Guaranteed! Give it a try.

Lots to play with to customize your tones. However, you must either buy the VC-4 foot controller or the VC-12 to utilize it to your advantage.

This amp is incredibly easy to use. It comes with a "guitarists guide" that's written in slang and easy-to-understand step-by-step instructions to make operation darn near foolproof. The factory presets are very cool as well.

No one else out there makes a modeling amp near this caliber. Like the model goes, "Everything else is just make believe."

It would cost you THOUSANDS to buy each amp this head contains. And with the stunning authenticity of this head, it's an EXCELLENT value.

Haven't needed any support yet, so by default I give it a 10.

If you like the traditional, retro-look of Vox, this amp captures it. It's super sexy!

All the classic amp tones are here. Beautiful... The effects are all excellent. The WAH is perfect but you need to get the VC-4 Foot Controller to access it. An all around great amp that can be clean or dirty, loud or soft and excellent for gigging, jammin' or recording (or all three!)

Great features. A drop to a 9 because the footcontroller is extra and very much needed, especially for gigging.

Well constructed. Superb quality control and extremely attractive if you are a Vox fan. Very reliable so far. I would baby it because of the sophisticated electronics... It is built to last.

The best $599 I have ever spent on an amplifier. The head coupled with the Vox 2x12 Speaker Cab is the most tone for buck outside of going the full and expensive boutique amp route. If you love the Vox sound, buy this amp now.

No support needed yet, however, the dealer answered all of my questions promptly.

Buy the amp. The Valvetronix will supply the tone you need to match the tone in your fingers. Sheer design genius and for once, a manufacturer that delivers on the marketing promises.

I own a 1995 Fender "Custom" Virbrolux Reverb, and previously owned an AMPEG VT-22 2x12 100 watt combo. I've played various other tube amps since 1967. I've also owned 1996 Fender Ultimate Chorus all Solid State 2x12, and a Vox Cambridge 30 Reverb tube/solid state hybrid, so I'm familiar with the difference between tube, solid state, and hybrid designs. The AD120VTH is SO GOOD, you'll have a hard time believing you aren't playing your favorite all tube rig. the amp models are very accutate, I compared them against every actual amp I could find in the store, including a vintage tweed deluxe, several VOX, Marshall, Mesa, and boutique amps. The sound, response and feel was truly amazing. The other modeling amps can't tough this.

The only down side to this unit is that it is so very flexible that in order to use all the features easily in a live environmnet, you'll need either the VC4 or VC 12 foot controller. I'll spend the extra cash and get the VC 12. The ability to access tuner, and preset programs, write your own, or just run the amp in manual mode really give you a tremendous amount of tones, and then you have to include teh added pedal effects, modulations, delays, and this head does it in stereo - gorgeous chorus.

The quality of construction is evident in the attention to details in the finishing, such as the amp corners, fret cloth, piping, vinyl, and the cabinet and I expect this to look nearly new 10 years from now. Buy teh fitted covers and it will be worth the investment.

Definitly worth the discounted retail price.

No technical problems, but some questions. Response was always friendly, and useful. Best support I've ever had, beats Fender, and Gibson.

You'll recognize its classic VOX trapezoid shape, and teh special blue fret cloth is very eye catching. It is both aesthetic and functionally practical.
