Thanks, cmm71. Your posts have answered some questions I've had. So you're saying that the "Red stripe" variety and the "Delta" are the same, and that it is a newer model than the "Blue stripe," which hails from the late 80s to mid 90s. Have I got that right?

And are you saying that the primary difference between the year models is cosmetic, that down through the years they have basically had the same technology and features?

I noticed too that all of your comments were about Bandits. Is that just because you've owned Bandits and not Envoys, or is there in your opinion something about Envoys that I should know about?

My application will be primarily home use, with occasional gigging in coffeehouse settings. So I was thinking that the 35W - 40W (I've seen both numbers) Envoy might suit my needs.
