Hi Mike. Had the Spectra115 for a number of years. Came to me with a JBL 15" D130 in it. It was used in a house gig 4 nights a week for many years before I got it. It eventually became a backup amp when I went to the NV400. It was then used as a practice amp for several more years. It served me well and sounded pretty good. A bit on the thin side on top but otherwise fine. Our keyboard player tried it out one time, after that it was his! Sounded awesome with keys. It met it's demise after a couple of years of road work. Something shorted out in the power supply and literally smoked the amp. The repair cost was just not worth it. I think Dean Markley was trying to compete with the Fender Twin at the time. All in all as early transistor amps went pretty good. It was definitely used until it died.
