I've looked at the spec for the Supre and spoke to the GT boys at Musikmesse- pretty it is not going to be the same sort of thing- I'm slightly dubious as to how good it is going to be on spec. Definitely a try before you buy item-I'd love to think that I can get 4 channels of the 'GT tube sound' for the cost of one Vipre... but experience tells me that corners will have been cut.
