Wich poweramp? Mesa Boogie 2:Fifty - Engl 930/60

Lately I am serching for a power amp to buy so I could have a complete Rack system.
I have the Jp6 guitar and using the Rocktron Prophesy II as a preamp.
What would be your choise between the two poweramps?

ever thought of trying a VHT power amp, l use a 2/50/2 and l tried it along side the Mesa 2/50/2 and l thought the VHT was much better.

Just a thought,

Scott.

Theyre both great but I would grab the ENGL probably - I feel like the have a crisper tone and will allow trhe prophesy to do its thing better, or any other preamp you put in front -what kind fo tubes are you gonna run in them?

The default tubes I think. That means 2 x ECC 83, 4 x 6l6GCRöhren for the engl and 4x6L6, 3x12AX7 for the boogie

The prize is almost indentical. I pay 1399 euros for the Mesa Boogie and 1350 euros for the Engl. I have tested the Engl and it is awsome. In a few days I will test also Mesa Boogie. But between the two tests there will be a time space of 2 weeks . And that is much time to be sure witch I like more.. Any information you gave me and hope you will give me more is well acceptet and thank u very much.
