Opinions on 3-channel tube heads

Try a Bruentti if you can find one.  

I have the XL R Evo II which has three channels.  The clean is awesome and chimey but never harsh, even at maximum gain it just doesn't want to break up too much.  The other two channels (boost and lead) are awesome too.  Its a just an all round awesome amp, not over complicated like some deizel and bogner amps.

Try one and you'll like it :)

that's a very nice amp. if i hadn't got such a good deal on my engl, i'd probably have gone with that.

I have tried several Brunetti's, and they are nice amps, but not for what I want to do with it for some reason :)

Maybe the Cameron CCM-100 is another option: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QYNk30aycM&feature=related

Yeah! That baby seems to have a nice chugga-chugga rhythm tone, very curious about that one!

What about the Hughes & Kettner Tri-amp? From my little knowledge of playing one it sounds lovely

Yeah, it does :) I own a Triamp mkII, but it is kinda smooth you know...I want some more grit in the lead sound, and a smoother clean...I wish I could play as good as I want my sound to be  :lol:

Everyone thanks for the replys so far. I am still not "finished" testing finding my holy grail, but slowly I am thinking of going to get me a custom built amp, just for me. Actually, when you compare it to a Mesa Roadking, it isn't expensive actually  :lol:
