Fargen Amplifiers, Anyone checked these out in a recording environment? Options

Hey Fellow Forum Members,

A buddy of mine recently pointed me to Fargen amplifiers, for recording in a small to medium studio setting. The Plexi II is a .5 to 12 watt (yep, that is one half) all tube amplifier that has some good tone.

I was curious if anyone has checked these out in a studio or other recording environment. The sound clips sound pretty good, but I was hoping to hear some feedback on real world experience with the amps and their tone.

If these can give a really good, high out put sound at low SPLs then I am thinking I might not have to worry about waking the neighbors any longer when I am trying to get a true tube tone without the DI -> amp simulator signal chain. Plus it might be a good choice to use to re-amp as well.

As always, thanks in advance.

peace.

Jeez, they cost enough.....I am sure they are pretty excellent amplifiers. I just bought a little Fender Champion 600 (5 Watts Tube) and was so happy with it that I ordered and am waiting on the Epiphone 5 watt version and the Blackheart 3-5 watt amps (I decided I love little tube amps). I imagine if you google the Fargin amps that there will be postings somewhere from happy owners. That is what prompted me to buy the little ones I have. I am also really looking at getting a Budda 18 watt amp at some point as well but am not exactly certain that I want to shell out 1400 bucks for an amp yet. My little Fender sounds really good clean or with a distortion pedal and yes....the SPLs are tolerable. By the way, the amps I have are all in the 200 to 250 dollar (US) range.
