Vox Black Diamond Series....NO GO
I don't know if anyone saw this or not (it's on valvetronix.net) but the long awaited Vox Black Diamond Series amp has been scrapped by Vox, due to cost.
With companies like Peavey (Vypyr), Line 6 (Spider Valve) and a few other companies producing less expensive modeling amps, Vox decided to scrap the production of the Black Diamond Series amp. The amp was going to be 200 watts and much like the blue series Valvetronix amps.

there are more amps available today than ever in the history of music , I'm not suprised that vox or any manufacture is considering what is out there already.
I'm looking into a new amp soon and the options are nothing short boggling, I've got a list 2 pages long of amps I would like to try out. ofcourse several are probably out of my sane price range

I guess they priced themselves out of the market. Here is the link to the thread.Originally Posted by Robert

If you look at the Vox amp website, the Black Diamond series isn't even listed anymore : (

They probably realized they could make the revenue with the Satchurator and Timeline pedals. Pedals would cost a lot less to produce.

The new VT´s looks like a lot of fun... The Black Diamond was too expensive for a modeling/tube hybrid anyway.
I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009
