Superb review of an outstanding product. One of the best offerings in the current wave of switchable amp heads and Rob does it justice as usual.

Great review as always, Rob! Just lovely how you bring out all the tonal characteristics of this tiny head and furthermore, show us a nice screaming lead tone with a tubescreamer in front! :-) Looking forward to some new awesome reviews! cheers!

Nice review. The Nighttrain seems to sound kind of thin in comparison to Orange/Egnater/Hughes and Kettner dual EL84 amps, probably the price paid for having a more AC15 type tone in it, which is a nice feature though. If I were looking for a tone like that, I'd still go for the AC15, as it sounds much better to my ear.

An interesting sound. It does seem to be a touch thinner then it's 15 watt competitors, but that would definitely work for some people. I think if you were get a hold of one these used, swap out the stock tubes, and crank it. You would have quite that amp. Also great review Chappers. Very informative. It's also good to see you branching out into other places. Hopefully you will receive all the success you deserve.

Great review, nice to see an honest reviewer point out the bad as well as the good points! That vox is smiles ahead of the TT!

Good review Rob. Very honest and entertaining.

Always loved VOX amps, they just sound really warm...

I must say this is a cute rock amp. I still prefer my trusty battered Orange TT, to be honest, though.

In any case, it's a well structured and informative review you have there, and I can really see a big fanbase for the little chrome bugger coming.

Awesome review! Personally I prefer the gain structure of the Tiny Terror as the one I owned had a fuller, more robust gain sound. However, the triodes setting of the Nighttrain is definitely cool. :) Bravo.
