Hello, firstly I love my cure, I kinda wanted to try something a bit different maybe a bit more gain, what can people suggest? I've added a poll of a few amps I'm considering, other opinions welcome, I just want something to add to the cure and make a stereo amp set up
Thank you

I pair my Z-Plus with my Ghia. They are a bit different in tone and complement each other. The Cure is American voiced so I would lean toward something more British. I’ve only played the Z-Wreck Jr and Z-28. They are both terrific. My pick would be the Jr. I think the Z-28 would be closer to the Cure, but have more volume.

I have a Cure and a Z Wreck Jr and had a Nova. The Z Wreck Jr and the Nova are awesome amps, but I like my Cure better. I guess I'm just a Cure kind of guy! For more gain from a Dr. Z amp I have a Monza. If I was going to try a different Dr. Z amp it'd be a Z-28. Or maybe a Carmen Ghia.

I have a Cure, which I love. I also have a Z28 MKII inbound, that I think will compliment the Cure nicely.

My vote Jetta ! Not a Brit tone but very unique tone..7591s, and plays well with others….

The adjustable footswitchable boost in the Cure appeals to me more than the Nova's OD did. The Cure is a fantastic fit for me.

Exactly why I would suggest the Nova. Fat and rich, but spanky when master volume is up. Lots of clean clang and compression. So much more in the amp when the master is above 12 o’clock. My favourite with the Remedy, great pairing. ME

I ran a mv remedy with my cure for about a year live and always loved it.

Cure + Ghia. Stereo. Stereo effects. Massive washes of reverb. Yes

Z Wreck jr is my vote a totally different flavor and an amp that will surely inspire. Output wise though I think that an M12 might fit more for volume…perhaps see if they are taking “legacy” orders if interested.
