Re: what's your best amp for your bedroom ?
When I want to use pedals with headphones, I use my Fender Performer 650, which is a mid-90's hybrid combo, into a dummy speaker load, speaker off, parallel out to a Hughes & Kettner Red Box 5 cabinet emulator, then on to a small Mackie mixer with a headphone jack. Fully Rube Goldberg approved.

Depends on the sound you want, but the Orange Micro Terror and Micro Dark are great options.

Peavey Bandit - 80w solid state 1x12
A couple years ago, I was using a Crate combo amp with essentially the same specs.
I got full enjoyment from both of these amps. I can keep it quiet for bedroom-level playing, and I can still get loud if I have the opportunity.

Lately I've been using Blackstar Fly 3 for practicing at home. I just run it off the batteries and can sit on the couch and fiddle around on it. The lack of cables and wall outlet is nice, and while you shouldn't expect a ton of gain, it does have a pretty decent sound to it.

There's also a couple of supros to the left,clean JC120's were popular with a few 80's UK bands blended with a crunchy valve amp.
I would guess this is a smaller quieter version of this rig with the cubes replacing the jc's.
I'm tempted to get a cube to try it myself
look at these roland cube

Re: what's your best amp for your bedroom ?
forgot... I also use my ART SGX 2000 as a practice/headphone amp from time to time.. MUCH more responsive that the GR4/PC but i still prefer that to the sgx..I might experiment with some IR's and run the SGX through the PC interface but i suspect my overall problem is the interface.. Still the SGX still has many usable sounds considering its age IMO so it wont be a total waste of time. Even being as old as it is. the SGX has some really nice and warm cleans and chorus. The distortions are very much a hit and miss affair BUT the sounds are in there. Just got find them
