Sounds sick AF! Love my Archon, too. One of the best sounding 2 Ch amps out there...boosted or not.
 
Came so close to pickup up one of these.
Never played one or heard one in person.

Which amp tone would you say it's most similar too?

Marshall? Mesa?
 
That sounds really good. Sounds really tight. I say this in a good way, it almost sounds like a tube VH140C.

It’s very much in the rectifier/5150 camp for sure. With arguably the absolute best clean channel I’ve ever heard in a high gain amplifier. It’s extremely smooth sounding, never harsh, probably my second favorite amp for leads I own as well.
 
PRS archon 100 comin in hot. Big big fan of this thing. Super thick and fat sounding, with plenty of definition. Like the hot Brazilian you see at the gym: thick in all the right places. Typical setup for me again:

Mesa OS cab
Vintage unidyne sm57
Peppers dirty tree boost

Enjoy!

Thanks man! That’s exactly it, this is what it does for sure. Glad you enjoyed it. The amp tracks extremely well, this was me basically plugging into it for the first time.
