 :lol: Your computers are so un-krieg.

That sounds amazing, though sounds like you had to crank it fully to achieve that.

[SG Thrasher]

Yeah, that was just to show how much gain you can get with it as that's what most people are interested in. You can get some great high gain sounds with low volume too.

Anyone got an idea what the pros/cons are against the Tiny Terror?  :?

From what i know, the blackstar has 2 channels, one clean and one dirty. Where the TT is just a Class A one channel amp.

And the effects loop as previously stated.

[f.sardis]

you also get the blackstar stack for the price of just the TT head!

But then the Tiny Terror is louder, and has a very different voicing.

I love my TT, it's a great little rock amp, at 7/15 watts it can get very loud for room levels, but you'd not want to gig with it. Single channel, has a good crack at clean tones at TV levels, but it's not as clean as a clean channel.

I'be not played the Blackstar amp, but I have a Blackstar HT Dual which I belive is simlar to the pre amp of the HT5. The voicing is different so I'd say try both if you can.

I have to say, the HT5 seems more versatile, and probably represents better value for money, but the TT has cracking tone for a small amp, so give one a try!

Sounds like loads of fun, very well balanced that little sucker!

If I wouldn't have vowed to get no more amps, I'd get me one for xmas. It's so cute!!
