| Cleans at what volumes?
For recording, you can get cleans with rolled off guitar knobs with 1/2 watts.
More typical, performance amps with 2 or 4 6L6's, EL34's, 6550's, 4XEL84's or KT series tubes are going to deliver more live clean headroom with drums.
At lower volumes in a proper recording situation, a pair of 6V6 or EL84's can deliver remarkable results, but at those lower volumes.
For ultimate cleans you also generally need some good 'ole Amish Iron and speakers
built for cleans or late break-up.
