Re: Marshall JVM 205H
The DSL is cheaper and versatile, but cannot compete with the JVM's 4 completely seperate channels. The DSL has shared EQ so if cleans are important you may need to sacrifice the distorted tone slightly. The JVM has no comprimises IMO. I run my DSL on the Lead one (red) channel and roll the volume back on the guitar for cleaner stuff.
