Personally I'd say Valves be the way to go. Fuzz pedals will 99.99% of the time sound superior through a Valve amp, a Germanium fuzz box especially. The Meathead should be cool with Solid State being silicon so a little less finicky about what it sees on its output. The Titan too will be coolio with Solid State gear as it was partly designed for use into such devices...the first D*A*M test amp was a modified Gorilla TC-110 :paranoid: :hihi:

One advantage of these is they're slightly smaller, so they fit into small body D*A*M pedals and the like better than US counterparts.
Ah, does this explain why I can't fit a battery into my grey hammer Titan? :zombiehuh:

Yah, those old Bimbox enclosures are a mighty tight fit compared to the NSC ones we now use.
