My first amp was a 70's Silverface TR (which I seem to recall buying for $425 in 1986, and they seem to be everywhere for around $700 these days). It sounded great, but was too heavy and all the great sounds were up above the volume level I needed, so I sold it. Three years of living in a second story studio apartment definitely factored into it.
