I know a lot of higher end amps have no tone controls but I find myself

This means I'm a little reluctant to upgrade to a more expensive amp

I'm in the purist camp as well -- leave the signal path as unadulterated
as possible.
That said, I recently purchased a Velodyne SMS-1 to equalize my

cleaner bass now. But bear in mind, I'm only manipulating the 20-80Hz
