The Soldano Atomic 16 was a pretty awesome little amp. I don't think they make it anymore.

My hybrid Rocket is currently my fav, but I'm working on a 2xEL84 Liverpool with some tweaks that I'm pretty excited about.

Great OP tube bias-trem. Very touch sensitive. I paid $60 at a flea market. I've seen them advertised for ~$400 in VG mag at times.
Wow. We just both posted simultaneously about the same (rare) amp. Pretty Harmonious. 8)
:shock: He told me he had the only one in existence! The Liar! :twisted:

Would that be called a 'Harmony'ic convergence? (Yes, that was bad)

I think they were C12Qs. Definitely a cool amp. Never tried the trem on it, but on the h306, I use the trem works really well after I got a new 6SH7 for it.

My Egnator Rebel 20 with mixable 2 EL84 and 2 6V6 sounds fantastic and priced at $599. I am enjoying this little amp and going to pickup his 50 watt version mixable 2 6L6 and 2 EL34.

I've heard the same from several people, both here and elsewhere. I gotta build it though, so that's out of the question.
