First off, when it comes to equipment reviews in magazines, take anything you read with a grain of salt. The rags always give favorable reviews even for the crappiest POS. It's advertising revenue they're after. Recall the Fliegler pulled his advertising from GP magazine, as punishment, because their review of the Cyborg Twin was not good enough for his liking. Nice guy.....

The Twin Amp is just another of their modern, cheaply constructed, lots of bells and whistles mass market PCB amps. Ho hum. If you like it, more power to ya. Certainly it's better than a buzz can Mesa.

A 70s or earlier Twin Reverb is a real-deal classic PTP tube amp. Jeez, I even have one, but I never use it because it's too loud.
