yeah i've got the at-100 cab too, i replaced the speakers with g12T-75s and v30's, didn't like it so i threw 2 stockers back in mixed with the 75's and quite a bit better sounding than stock. The cab itself is very solid. I did pull out the cheapo screws that hold hte back panel on and replaced them with some big hex head screws.

The clean channel is probably the best part about it, takes OD/dist pedals REALLY REALLY well. I like channels 2&3 also but they are a little thin feeling when you play, and dynamics
are not the greatest. But great sound for the price, can get some pretty good high gain too. I like class A setting (which most people don't they like solid state) because it seems much less compressed. Its a really nice amp, but i have money burning a hole in my pocket so i'm gonna pick up a Peavey JSX or 6505+
The AT-100 cab is also VERY nice, but the only head it doesn't suit is the AT-100 head , i found a cab with greenbacks sounded GREAT with the at-100.
You won't find anything better for the price believe me. And guitar center will give it to you for $625 + tax (i talked them down even lower than that!) so don't pay full price!
B-52 At-100/ B-52 At-212 owners!?

people compare it to mesa recto? whoever does that has NEVER played a recto, wow the differences are as big as you can get. Thats like saying a jcm800 is like a recto.
Anyway yeah the clean channel is where this amp shines. The crunch and lead channels aren't dynamic and IMO are not that great, now that i've a/b'd my 6505+ with it tonight there is just a huge difference in quality tone between the distortion on both amps, the peavey makes the b-52 sound terrible, for low and high gain. But the 6505's clean channel cannot hold a candle to the b-52 clean channel. I REALLY like the clean channel on the b-52
