Tabl10s,
Not sure by experience with dartzeel. But I did get my info about this match up through a dealer who carries both Merlin and Dartzeel and he mentioned that the sound was pretty good. If you like a more of rolled off or syrupy sound then tubes will work for you. If you want resolution other qualities this amp brings and money isn't a matter to you, then you might like the sound of dartzeel. Again, its a matter of taste and budget.
