Well, I can't help you with much in the way of pics, but here's what it's like:

Big. Heavy. Heavy. Heavy. Loud.

What more do you need to know? It's really heavy, and it sounds nice. Has two channels - top boost and normal - and you can combine the two. You can't switch between them remotely, though - you'd need an AB box to do that, which is irritating. I don't like the way fuzz sounds through it, but clean delay sounds awesome - better than any amp I've played through (sparkly but punchy). Use overdrive, rather than fuzz - my Super Duper or RAT sound much better than either of the Muffs.

It's the LEAST portable amp I've ever owned. It weighs a TON. I thought my Marshall was heavy, but this is like made of plutonium or some shit. Either that or Beth Ditto's living inside it.

Summary - it sounds great, but is very, very non-portable. It sits at home in my music room with a battery of mics pointing at it, while I take the Marshall out to gigs.

I've got the head and cab version (AC30CCH and V212BNX) of the CC line and it's A LOT easier to move around than the combo version. You should consider this if you plan on using it for gigging.

And BTW, if you're set on getting the "VOX custom GSH12-30" speakers that the AC30CC2 has, just get the V212BN cab instead of the V212BNX.

yeah i know how heavy they are. still, i find them to be more portable at least size wise than my bassman ten. that thing is massive.

i would like to stack, but i love the way the combo looks. ill look into those 2x12's. does the z212bnx have the blues?

You mean the Blue Celestion speakers ?

If so, answer is yes the V212BNX have the Blue Clestion Speaker while the V212BN have other speakers... you can tell just by the price !  :o

Edit: Why can't I find thos 2 cabs on the Vox website ? I'd like to know more about the V212BN speakers but no infos..

Taken from http://www.voxamps.co.uk/acseries/ac30cc.asp:
V212BN
2x12 opened back extension cabinet with
VOX custom GSH12-30 speakers.

V212BNX
2x12 opened back extension cabinet with
Celestion AlNiCo "Blue" speakers.

V412BN
4x12 closed back extension cabinet with
VOX custom GSH12-30 speakers.
My cab is the V212BNX. I know the price tag differs from the V212BN, but IMHO it's worth every penny.
