what tones are you after? I am assuming the DC30 tones based on your earlier post about the HC30
Did you only want the left channel on the DC30? The EF86 channel is the magic one for me, and the Avalon does not have it.
Fair enough if it's the left channel you want, and I'm sure it will sound glorious
Anyway, a few opinions from me, I hope these are helpful:
The resale value is a bit of an unknown, compared to a DC30 / HC30, and it's PCB - and I would worry more about PCBs with Matchless since they run hot, but I assume they have over-engineered something to protect the PCB??
You can get a used DC30 combo for £2000 - £2200 at the minute, which would last longer, have the EF86, and be worth the same on resale
Just in case you don't know yet - the DC30 sound is 35% down to the mismatched speakers in the Matchless cab, which they dope to change the tonality a bit. I have not been able to replicate this sound with any other speakers. The 1x12 combo version will not give you this, and buying a 2x12 Matchless cab is pretty expensive. A DC30 combo might be cheaper overall
Thansk for advice and help guys....pics to follow shortly
