Nice! I was waiting for some sort of update/demo on this. For $100 having 22 watts that could fit in your jacket pocket is a pretty cool deal. This just brings a whole new convenience to anyone in a street corner band.

this looks cool but 22 solid state watts isn't very loud, is it?

It certainly wouldn't be like 22 watts tube, but for what this amp "appears" to be made for (random jams/coffeeshops/bedroom/street corner/etc.) I would think 22 watts SS would be pretty solid. It could certainly fill up a small room with ease, and with good acoustics, maybe a bit bigger. Heck, the highest wattage I've seen in amps this big is usually about a 1/2 watt, tube or SS... and they're in even bigger enclosures! I think for many people, if they are looking for a backup, are a broke-ass kid, or aren't looking for the ultimate tone, this may run the gamut on the market of low-wattage SS amps.

if they stuck this in a box with the holy stain and it cost $200, that would be semi-revolutionary....

A 22 watt tube amp can get freaking loud.

Cool idea. I'm still gonna build a noisy cricket, but this thing sounds neat.

I had a 1 watt solid state amp ina similar enclosure and it was loud through my 4x12. I imagine 22 watts through decent speakers can be very loud.

I'm into my Lunchbox. This doesn't seem as compelling.

looks like these have hit ebay, $99. I was thinking if I ended up getting one of these things, the perfect pair for it would be a Dr. Scientist cleanness.
