Default Bugera AC60

Anyone have any experience with both the Bugera AC60 and the AER Compact 60? Would love to know how the Bugera stacks up. Are there more sound and coverage similarities than differences? I can only find a couple of video/sound clips of the Bugera online vs. the many available for the AER.

I currently have a Bugera AC60 and plan to post a review. I bought and returned an AER Alpha maybe a year ago. For both amps I compared them EQ set flat against my Yamaha DBR10 with all on the floor about a foot from a wall. I like the DBR10 the best, but with a little tweak to the AC60 bass control I felt I was close enough. I never could get the Alpha to sound right to me. The fact that the very expensive AER had POTs that were not nutted down annoyed me. Of course the AC60 is built the same way at 25% the price. I ended up returning the AER because one of the volume controls was noisy and I was not going to spray cleaner in a brand new amp.

You could buy both from MF next 15% off sale and keep one, but I would bet the Bugera is quite close enough.
