great amp. even tho i don't need it, i'm tempted to get another at this price (sold mine awhile back to JackC).

Will these get loud enough to play with a band at rehearsal or play at a gig un-miked? I am always hesitant to get an map with a 10" speaker because I feel like it won't get loud enough.

And available with free shipping and no tax depending upon where you buy.......Might as well get the footswitch at the same time.

Mine gets along very well with my visual sound and seymour duncan pedals. It offers plenty of bang for buck. As far as loud goes, it's 15 watts and plenty loud for me. But I don't gig. Check out the threads about the amp here and at other places and see what you think.

gets quite loud, def loud enough to rehearse. i've gigged mine mic'd & w/ the line out run into the PA; def would work on a show w/ non-slamming drummer, if you got it up barstool high & there wasn't people standing directly infront of it (narrow beam of sound disappears on a crowded stage/crowded front of club).

i gig 4 days a week with mine , a speaker change is needed though if you're gonna gig , for bedroom it's fine , i run mine thru a 2x12 open back avatar with older eminence greenback clones , can't imagine needing anything else........ :D

Here is an idea that might be useful to expand the usefulness and projection of a small combo.......I think I will make one and try it out with the XD,

Sorta looks like it would work as a quasi-Thiele cab.

someone used to manufacture an amp stand like that. great idea.

If I was/were a rich man, you'd each have one in your stocking this year.

I wonder if they are being discontinued or something. Some places are out of stock, but it looks like MF, M123, Music Zoo and others still have some for 199 shipped.

They will most likely have an new improved version out as soon as they sell these off.

I don't think there's one in the latest AMS catalog, which I thought was weird. If they're discontinuing them , ti's a shame, 'cause it's a cool little amp,,,

I love mine. Stock tubes OK, Tung Sols better, NOS Sylvanias and this is impossible to beat for the price.

If they can improve the XD then good for them. I don't know what they could do... maybe a 12 inch speaker?

The removal from the website was just in the last day or two as I was there either Thursday or Friday and the SCXD was there.

Well, I just bit. I'm a Fender guy and was looking for a grab-and-go amp. I was considering the Mustang 2 (40W, 1x12, but solid state), but the tubes sold me. Looking forward to it.
