First, let me say "Hi" to all you folks. Haven't posted a while (Didn't have much to say).

Recently purchased an Ampeg B-100R 1x15 combo. This was to avoid dragging the Kustom 2x15 around for informal jams. Both amps are 100w rms. Just for fun, I put them sided-by-side. The tone on my Kustom K200 B-1 was just as good as the Ampeg. But the volume.....Holy Decibels Batman! The Kustom blew away the Ampeg. I don't know if its due to the two speakers vs. one speaker or what. All I know is that my 35 year old Kustom neve ceases to amaze me.

P.S.
Don't get me wrong - the Ampeg is a great amp, too.
