Par contre, il semble qu'au niveau robustesse, ça soit assez quelconque (tout est monté direct sur le PCB, à commencer par le jack).

"Vox AC-30CCH Report from a regular guitar playing guy:
I played one of the new Vox amps today for enough time to form an opinion. It seems like some of the greatest interest in this amp is on this board so I am posting here. They said it was one the first 100 shipped to the U.S. They just got it on Friday and I was somewhat surprised to see them in person after waiting for their release for over a year. I literally bumped into it.
I played the head into the open back 2-12 with blues. They also had a combo with the new design speakers but I didn't try it.
Good Things:
First off, it sounded great. I was using a Les Paul with a humbucker and it sounded like what you would expect it to. As good or better than any ac30 I have ever played. I've never owned one, but have played the reissues and the ac15tbx a bit. I don't believe I have ever played an original 60's one. The master volume works perfectly. It is decent down to bedroom volumes and gets quite loud, of course. The new features they added like channel link seem to be of some use. Basically, I got really nice Voxy cleans and muscular midrangey Voxy crunch out of it with no trouble. It had quite a bit more gain than I thought it would, but it was no metal amp. It was a classic gain. I imagine it would sound great boosted. I was left thinking it would be a great club amp and no doubt they will sell a bunch of these for that application. Great for singer songwriter stuff, alt-country, indie rock.
Price was around $900 out the door. That was before any negotiation. I don't know if they would have moved on that price or not. The combo with the Chinese speakers was $150 or so more and the combo with blues was around $1600 but they didn't have one, that is just what the very helpful salesman said. He was cool and let me try it out all I wanted. In my defense I wasn't just messing around, I had the money in my pocket.
The cosmetics of it looked GREAT. I saw no obvious flaws in the workmanship. Tolex was good. The front grillcloth looked great. And the Vox logo looked wonderful. These will look great on stage and no one in the audience is going to be thinking "Oh that is a Chinese Vox". They will just see a nice looking - authentic looking - Vox. This particular one had a few scuffs probably because it had been to the Dallas Guitar show and back already in its short life. (I didn't play it at the show, I played it at a store.) It had a nice heft to it without being a backbreaker. There was no obvious cheapness to it.
Bad Things:
It was not as 3-D sounding as a Matchless. Maybe it would be a closer competitor with a set of good tubes. I couldn't tell what brand were in the amp through the top grill. IMO it will not be a Matchless/Badcat/Valvetech etc killer. The people who spent more on those amps will feel confident in their purchases especially because of the potential build quality issues, but also because of the sound. But I think people who do buy the CC's will be confident too, because they do sound good just not $2500 good. I know this is somewhat of an unfair comparison. But it is comparing a "real" Vox product with the other Vox descendents.
It had some hiss/hum with the volume cranked, not enough to make me worry excessively. But it is not going to be a dead quite amp.
The amp ran way hot. You could feel it cooking - it is a real Vox. You could smell it, but that is just part of new amp syndrone, I think. The heat bothered me a bit. I had visions of repairs in my head. Long time Vox guys probably won't flinch at this.
The reverb and trem only seem to operate with the footswitch. If they are off with the footswitch and the footswitch is elsewhere, as was the case, there is no way to turn them on. I didn't ask for the footswitch, therefore I didn't try reverb or tremolo. I believe they are both solid state driven so I wouldn't expect much from them anyway.
And the final straw - the brilliant switch on the Normal channel was not functioning. You could tell it was mechanically busted (not a connection problem). If the switch is on a PCB, that will be a pain to repair. I would not buy a brand new amp with any functional problem. It is not a huge deal, but it did make me go hmmm. I pointed out the switch problem to the salesman not be a jerk or get a discount, but so they would know about it. I don't know if it is going to get repaired or what. The other little switches seemed sturdy FWIW.
In the end I found it prudent to wait awhile and see how they are holding up before buying one. They are going to sell a lot of these, that much is clear.
It would not surprise me if these things are pretty reliable and it would not surprise me if they have some "issues". Time will tell. Unless there are absolute (numerous, verifiable) horror stories about these amps in the coming months, I will probably get one."
