Small timers

Following the Mooer D-15 entry, a reader wrote in asking me if there is a comparable unit that I'd recommend since he's interested in a lug-friendly amp head & that the D-15's availability is unconfirmed (in the mean time). 

Mooer's D-15 (A) is a digital unit & its strength lies in the clarity heard from the demo clip supplemented in that blog post. There isn't any quite like it in the stores here in the mean time but in terms of dimensions, Peavey's Piranha 6505 (B) is a worthy contender, so is Vox's MV series (C). The idea of a small, portable amp head isn't new. In fact, I used to own a Crate Power Block (D) which was a no nonsense solidstate unit (discontinued in 2010/ 2011).
