Should I trade a Rivera M60 combo for a XXX head?

I am perplexed with this decision. The M60 gives me great versatility and the clean tone is unbeatable but I like the gain on the XXX better. Most of the time recently though I have been using a Pod XT into the effects loop anyway so help me out please.

:doh:
 
have you tried changing any of the preamp tubes out in the XXX? I have the head as well. I put a 12ax7m in V1 and it became an entirely different beast.

I don't have it yet. I have the M60. The XXX has EL34's in it. I don't know about the pre's.
 
I personally would not trade, no way in hell. I like the XXX, but it's just kinda blahh, and any Rivera pwns IMO.

Just an MXR Mico Amp. Thinking that maybe I should try something else, like a Bad Monkey.
