I had one and the bridge rectifier(?) solder joints kept going bad as they were above the power tubes. :-S
Sounded nice though...

Was fine once repaired though, and as ICBM mentioned, check the holes for the valves.
When I came to replace them sure enough they weren't wide enough.

I think the overheating problem was sorted in 2004 so 2006 will be ok. I had one, it definatly improved with a speaker swap. Sound wise they are pretty good.
Mine's around that age, and I've had no issues with reliability at all.
The reverb is a bit meh, but when you're using a Marshall you probably aren't too worried about reverb......
There is quite a lot of gain available. Mine's completely stock and has enough gain to play anything up to metal. It doesn't do extreme gain levels, but if you like the early Van Halen or Iron Maiden Marshally sounds you'll find them easily enough.
Allowing for a personal bias, I think it's a fannytastic amp.
