So I found a more recent used 101B and a new 20th 101B locally. 101B is a good price. 20th 101B is crazy expensive. But... I think from all the research I've done, the 20th is more appealing. Wish I could a/b a 20thA and 20thB, but what are ya gonna do. I typically prefer EL34 amps. But I can kinda see how 6L6s in an XTC would sound great and help balance out the amp a bit.
Man... just grabbed a Helios 50 and I have an Uber on the way. I might be turning into an overnight Bogner fan. I don't know what's happened to me lol. That said, to this day, the best clean sounds I've ever personally gotten out of any amp were in an old Shiva 2x12 combo EL34 Reverb that I played in a store around 2006.
Here's one of the best sounding Ecstasy clips I've found. 20th 101B thru VHT cab.
