So does anyone here know when the new Vox Valvetronix amps come out? I know the main thing about them is the improved high gain models but is that the only tweak to the VT line, or are the clean models improved as well? I'd hate to buy an AD60VTx and then find out 2 months later there is an overall better version out on the market.

Apparently it's a version with higher gain. If you aren't into higher gain sounds then it may not be something to get.
Elderly looks like they have one:

I just walked in from the store (Sam Ash) with the 30 watt 1x12 XL. Haven't had a chance to explore it yet.

Just spent a few minutes going over the presets. It sounds just like the other Valvetronix amps but different amp models, some a little to fizzy for my taste but backing off the gain knob cleans them up. The 12" speaker with the bass at half can be a little tubby and backing that off a bit cleans that up. More later when I record with it I'll post a clip.

Just an FYI, I think unless you need a variety of high gain amps the other VTH/VTX would be just as good.

That was my other choice or the head only for 399.00 - I paid 280.00 for the 30watt. For my use the 30 is fine...

I had the DA15 for about two weeks and took in back to upgrade to the XL 30 watt and to me the cleans sound about the same. I haven't had the time to play it much yet but it's a nice little amp. There are no ear shattering mods to the original design other than now the 30 has a 1x12 and the new hi gain models.

Nice. The GT Mullard 12AX7-M or any good tube kicks it into high gear. Lotta guys like to swap in a Vintage 30 as the stock speaker can be bright. I got me an Earcandy Buzzbomb 2X12 and put in a V30 and G12H30 and wow, the models sound killer cranked through my "3x12", lol. Remember, when using a cab to use an 8 ohm cab and set the amp on 16 ohms.
