Anderton's compared one of those with a TS9 and a TS808.
They agreed that the difference in tone is damn near imperceptible. I'm waiting for a doctor's appointment now, but try and search it on YouTube.Epiphone LP Standard PlusTop Pro

Ibanez RG270 / Screamin' Demon bridge.

Re: Anyone Try the Ibanez TS NuTube Yet?
Because I really like TS pedals, I'd be curious to try one. However, I'm skeptical of tubes in pedals, especially when they run on 9V batteries. Awhile back, I heard someone reputable (I *think* it was Brian Wampler) say that tubes in pedals aren't usually doing what you think they are.“I can play the hell out of a riff. The rest of it’s all bulls**t anyway,” Gary Holt

Clever marketing for the Klone crowd
The rest of us like Tubescreamers because they're cheap, easy to find, and take forever to break. This model is expensive, rare, and i bet those tubes wear out eventually. I'll take any number of the thousands of clones that actually sound different or add useful EQ options.green globe burned black by sunn

Most of the tube PREAMP pedals are running proper voltage, the AMTs are running at ~300V.
Don't know about the Nu Tube thing though, it is supposedly a vacuum tube that runs at low voltage/current.

Yeah, in the NuTube FAQ they say it's designed to run between 5 and 80 volts.
