Default Egnater Amps - Renegade 2X12 and 4X10 Combos

I have been GASing for a more powerful amp since a loud drummer recently drowned out my Fender SuperChamp XD with the Celestion G12H 30W in the cab.

From recent experience and from this forum, I have learned that I really don't really need a 65-watt amp to perform since most are miked up when playing live; but, I would still love to hear from anyone who has any knowledge on the Egnater Renegade larger combo configurations. I am interested in their reliability, any complications the little fan in it can cause, headroom, and any other tidbits. I tried the 2X12 in 2009 and was super impressed with the tone for Rock. Now that I am more into Jazz, I am wondering how it might work for that type of music. Note, it has a 65/18 watt power switch that should help should I ever play with a group in a smaller venue.

One thing is for sure, information on the 4X10 combo is very scant, as well as demos. (Makes me want to try it all the more!)

Happy Holidays!

Default Egnater amps

Seems that this subject doesn't motivate a lot of people !
Anyway, I was also wondering about Egnater amps reliability as I'd like to go for a Rebel 30 to replace my Vox AD15VT.
I've read about noise and buzz concerns with these amps
Can anyone confirm ?

There just is not a lot of love out there for these amps it seems.

I tried the 2X12 a couple of years ago and really liked it for certain genres of music. Next chance i get, I am going to try it out for Jazz now that it's my favorite genre. You can get good distortion at such low volumes with these things - kind of makes you want to practice.

I have read about owners having a few problems with them here and there, but it seems everyone loves the tone of them.

I guess the fact that only a few people talk about them must meant they just are not that good in some way.

Thanks for commenting.
