Are those out yet?
Last time I checked vox site said they were coming in May!

I really want to try the head+cab version of it, has a 12'' cone, and the same specs. Can't wait to give it a try. Let us know if you do!

Sweet little amp! It's tiny, but it packs a punch probably

For practicing and jamming with friends I use Fender Frontman 15R and Roland Micro Cube, but by the specs of this Vox here, it looks like it could easily join the family of my home practicing amps.

Made a few calls yesterday, doesnt seem to be out here just yet although a guy @ reidys said hes expecting stock for the end of the month, I would sooner have the blackheart I think but the switchable power is a big plus.

The Blackheart also has switchable power: 3/5W on the 5W amp and 7/15 on the 15W (little giant and handsome devil, respectively)

Looks like a great option for a mini tube amp for that price!! Can't wait for it to arrive here in stores so I can test one!
