Both sound great. I very slightly prefer the 69.

The 69 just has balls.......The 78 has some attributes that is just different... I mean they are both Non Master Volume amps running into a Rivera Rockcrusher taming some volume. The 69 just has the right amount of crunchy gain, squish and compression. 8-)

I prefer the 69 also ... got to say though, what a terrible way to lay out a shootout video... I had to keep jumping back and forth to hear them next to each other

I find the best videos like this are the ones that seamlessly shift from amp to amp as it goes....that way you can just close your eyes and let your ears see if they can tell which one is which
