So guys, what's a good vox style amp these days then? Boutique or not.

Bad Cat Black Cat 15R head is just amazing. Hand wired, 2 channels, separate reverb for each channel, master volume that you can switch out of circuit, half power switch .

Or might be that you plug into one and the foot switch goes in the other?

This.  The footswitch goes into Channel 1, the guitar into Channel 2.

Cheers  Wonder why it's not labeled

I have been somewhat tempted by the Kraken pedal. How does this compare to the full fat amp? 

Rabea did a really good video A/Bing the two. The amp sounds *marginally* fuller, but you wouldn't tell the difference in a mix. Of course that might be slightly subject to whatever power section you stick the pedal through, but still. Quite impressive!

Umm...a bit radical I know but...how about .....
.....a Vox amp?  

Yep, just hear mixed reviews about quality etc. I'm looking for a head, if that makes any difference?

Having been so impressed with the Sheriff and Kraken (I know I've said it could be better above, but it's still a damn impressive amp), I'm also curious about this. I love the compact size! The Copper appears to be a fine-tuned Vox, so I am tempted to grab one at some point down the line.
