Did anyone here buy without trying it? You must have doubted the claims, at least a little.
That was enough to convince me that I wanted/needed one.

Power rating is 10w. They have an IOS interface to do various things ( phrase training and recording mainly I think). As I don't have an IOS device I would feel I was missing out a bit. Less models and effects than the THR as well but the first model up is a JC clean so might be nice if the OP is after a jazzy tone ( I think that came up somewhere on this discussion). I don't know if it has full range speakers ( like the THR),my Mustang has an aux in but because it has a guitar speaker mp3s sound pretty crappy.
Not the thing if you want it to double up for small jams but looks nice for purely home use and, like the THR, looks like something designed for the home not Ted Nugent's backline looked at from a long way away.

My thing is i need a 12"speaker at a minimum to handle the low end fuzz
But will add the laney lc15 to the list...

12" speakers won't necessarily handle low end fuzz - it's a practice amp, so a 10" speaker won't be driven hard enough to go weird. And the thr amps are highly regarded, but don't even use guitar speakers.
Get out and try some, basically. They're all find for practice, but you need to know what you're after sound wise.
I've bought a Blackstar ht5r second hand, but I am going to buy a thr too. Maybe even just the 5. It's something that has made me think about new ways to use it, and now I feel like I ought to have one.

I like the Yam THR, I have the THR5 and it is very good fun. The watch out is that they are still just a small digital practice amp, albeit a good one - from how some people carry on you would think they are the end of all GAS.
I find the clean not as good as a Mustang for example, and the hi gain drive sounds have a grainy quality in the low end - but overall, for the size of the 5, it is a cracking bit of portable fun.
I've just noticed these new from Fender, how the hell they differ from the Mustang is anyones guess, but I like the trad looks and simple layout.
