I've got an ENGL Screamer Top which puts out 50 watts with two 5881. The amp has two channels and two gain modes each. The voicing and gain of the "four" channels is well-adjusted, it seems you can go from spanking clean to high-gain without abrupt changes or boosts.  
It also features an FX loop (you can use a pot to turn the loop from parallel to serial) and an Accutronics reverb.  
It is extremely quiet, 'cos it uses selected Sovtek tubes. The Screamer sounds excellent with both standard and vintage Celestions.  
 
The amp is made in Germany.
