If I was looking at Diamond the phantom is probably more in that vein
Or the Heretic

How about the decada

not too familiar with that one , do they even make them anymore .

from my understanding it was more like a voxy clean and a Bogner XTC overdrive , thicker darker than the others

The Phnatom is probably the most JCM800d on steroids IIRC

Koch has the marshall thing down. I dont know THAT diamond but never heard one that wasnt “bees in jar”. Sceptical of the diamond.

Have been playing Koch for 6 years. Had a Koch Powertone II, switched to a Diezel Einstein and sold it to go to Koch Powertone III.

Koch amps are very reliable and great all-in-one amps. I rarely had a gig or studio job where I'd use the Koch and someone would come to me complimenting on my sound. I strongly advise buying this one.
