Peavey Classic 50/50. It's an el84 based power amp.
Some people are a bit religious about the poweramp choice. Some say that it just doesn't make sense to use a tube power amp because you've already got the tube tone coming out of the head into the load box. Getting a really clean, low power studio grade power amp would logically do the best job amplifying the tone without coloring it. It makes sense.
Me, I tried about 3 or 4 amps including a fairly new crown, a new alesis 'studio monitor' amp, some funky tube amp my buddy had, and the peavey. I liked the peavey the best... it was the warmest sounding.
