I find I get the best results with a JJ and GT 12AX7 in the 2101 going through a Mesa 50/50 power amp. Additionally if you use Dist with 2 gain levels make sure the 1st gain level is a couple notches lower than the second. I find 7 and 10 respectively give me a good tone. The 2101 can't do death metal tones except on the Grunge setting....but I believe that is solid state.
Thats my 2 cents

distotion clean tube and grunge sound great but, the saturated and the
distorted tube and heavy sustain sound unclear, not really useable when

try to make these distortions sound better?
