[QUOTE="audiomidijace, post: 100505, member: 2438"] The extra slot and MIDI control are hard features to ignore, but the RM100 combo is the heaviest combo amp I've ever lifted! It's a beast. :shock: I would think about getting an RM100 head and a 2x12 cab instead. This makes traveling with the amp much easier. But, I've seen just stupid prices on RM50 combos recently. I have two of these and I love them. I used to be an MTS dealer so I've played every version of the MTS amps (except the RM80 and the RM22.) I don't recall ever thinking that the 50 watt sounded better then the 100 watt. Although I did like the sound of the heads and combos better than the rack gear. I have no idea why. I think it comes down to: Do you really need 3 channels and MIDI control? That makes for a really kick *** system with lots of versatility. But if you think that would be over kill or don't want to spend the money for all of the extras, the RM50 absolutely rocks. It also has great tone at low volumes with 6L6s or EL34s. So you wouldn't HAVE to use 6V6s just for lower volume. Best of luck, Jace [/QUOTE]
