I'd jump on it soon if you're serious, B-stock normally goes quick.

I've never been impressed with Peavy.. I'm waiting for Ashdown to come out with their American line of amps.. sweet looking stuff in the works

My problem with Peavey is they always seem to break after two years. Without fail. That and the head I have now seems to not want to do what I need it to do. Got the Peavey Pro Tour 700 watt head, into an Ampeg 8x10 SVT classic, and the Peavey clips at half volume, whether or not I have the BBE processor on.

Do we have an ETA on that? I really would like to look into upgrading in the next few years to some thing amazing.
