[QUOTE="mahatma, post: 159292, member: 4035"] Excellent point on the power amps. A solid state amp like the Matrix is only 8lbs. while the Syn5050 is a whopping 24lbs! Double that for two of them and I'm now looking at nearly 50 lbs. just for the power units. To its credit, the Syn5050 weighs far less than a comparable 2 unit, 50 Watts/channel Freyette weighing in at 33lbs. and still slightly less than a comparable 50 Watts/channel Engl at 26lbs. Yet another possibility is the single unit 20 Watts/channel Engl 810 tube amp weighing around 12lbs. Given that I don't need of 200 watts of total power for the entire rig, and prefer El84s over 6l6s for a more British sound, the Engl 810 seems like a better choice for me at least for the dry amp. Thanks for pointing out how heavy these single unit tube power amps can weigh. [/QUOTE]
