I’ve really grown to appreciate ch 1 myself the last couple of months. Crushes hard. This amp is a MUCH better 1-2 punch than the TJ ever was, and I love ch1 of the TJ.

Agreed. The Twin Jet was disappointingly flubby and kinda sterile. The UU dominates it.
 
still on the fence. i guess i need to find ine somewhere and play it.
 
I finally got a chance to give mine a go this weekend.

Pros: absolutely the ultimate Uber IMO. Rev Green, Blue and modern, super tight and aggressive offerings are all in there. Can get comically rediculous the amount of tight gain you can dial in when you set it up right.

Cons: While most folks are going to say "no kidding", this really is a modern metal amp. The clean is OK for a high gainer, but lower gain settings on Uber mode or crunch mode are very meh IMO. The amp really excels when dialed up for metal tones. For me personally, the past few years I have been getting more into amps that have more of a vintage feel; open and not saturated.

Not really a knock on the amp....it excels at what it was made for and I probably would have loved it 20 years ago when I played alot more of the brutal stuff. My friend who tried it out with me when we jammed absolutely loved it. I will keep tweaking it...but likely going to move it along.
I'm the same way. Great amp but not my thing these days. I still prefer the feel and fatness of my Quickrod and more cinateg organic feel. I don't do the modern High Gain any longer like I used to. I go more rock and hard rock and this amp to me is all modern metal. Killer amp for that. I just won't spend that much for an amp any more.
 
Been wanting to try the Uber Ultra after my XTC sells, seems relatively versatile
