Which isn't a bad thing, you might be able to pick u a half stack if not then dont be afraid to go for a combo. They are loud enough and theres no difference in sound. I never understand why people are so obsessed with going half stack.

You are right that you should not be afraid to get a combo. But they do not sound the same as stacks. In fact there is huge variances in the stacks too!!

Usually with amps what happens it a manufacturer will get a reputation for a particular model and then they will start pumping out amps with lower quality components after the initial production run. This can be said for practically all of the major manufacturers like fender, marshal etc.

The boutique manufaturers like boogie and orange tend to use better quality parts on all their stuff.
