Hell Yeah!!!

Hughes and Kettner are def well liked. My buddy has one. Though I never personally played it, he talks very highly of it.

RG100ES-- They are the best solid that I have personally played. I have the PQ3 and a Randall RG100ES... it's a tone machine. Actually Randall RGs kick ass with distortion pedals too. I'm sure you played yours with you metalzone. Put that MT-2 through the loop and adjust the EQ to taste, and whammo!

The Fender Metal-Head. Now that's an amp the we don't talk enough about. How is it compared to other solid state amps? I think they look mean as hell.

The metalhead, like i said is built like a tank.... and looks like one.. It's mega distortion.. a bit thin on the bass side... but that could be the peavey cab too... overall i give it a 8 out of 10 as a soild state... compared to a tube, lol i cant beleive i even said that never mind, lol

but it is worth the money

I had the 112 (75 watt). they are packed with lots of goodies and effects. They're just not so desired because of the digital feel and sound. Most Type O Negative stuff reminds me of Spider tone.

Play a Line 6 flextone or HD147 and you'll blown away. I love my HD147

I love spiders for practicing purposes, but not for gigging.
Randalls, hands down, best solid state ever
