I guess I`m the oddball, because I just bought another Quilter. Tone Block 202,which makes number 3.I can`t understand why any of you would not like it?
It has the most usable Clean Tone of any amp I've ever owned ,and I've owned a lot.

Usable is a very subjective term. I found no usable tones anywhere in either version of the 101. All I could get was a nasally honking tone, regardless of settings. It was always there and I couldn't get rid of it. But clearly a lot of people like that tone, and a lot don't. It's a matter of taste, and my taste is not the same as anyone else's, and no one needs to apologize for their taste.

Another important element is choice of speaker and cab. But this is true of any amp as well.

Not gonna try to change anyone's mind or anything. Just wanted to say that I hate "nasally upper mid range honk" as much as the next guy. It's certainly not something I go looking for. I had that problem with Aviator 8 and bought another speaker cab and an expensive EQ to solve it. I don't have that at all with the 202. But I also prefer 12" speakers in open cabs. So that's... another variable.
Mark sounds great through all three amps if you ask me.

My concern is that by consistently offering your dissenting opinion, you are providing a disproportionate negative consensus. Your opinion is, of course, valid, but maybe you need to limit the expression of it. Or qualify it by the fact that you don't like blackface tones, and therefore are not a fan of solid state emulations of blackface tones.
Just looking out for other prospective Quilterites... I'm very happy with my 101 (and a big Fender Blackface fan), and I wouldn't want others to be put off by those who are really just after different tones.

Besides, it,s more of a middle high end quack, if you ask me :-) :-)
