Rogue M-150's sonic flavour

Hi Guys;

I have not heard the Rogue M-150's. but they look like fun. I was hoping some of you could tell me their sonic "flavour". Are they rich and warm like older CJ gear, or more detailed and dynamic like some ARC gear?

I've owned the M-150s for over 10 years now.  I've found tube rolling can get great results with these amps.  12ax7s, 12au7s, EI34s, Kt88s, all can make a difference.The 2 12au7s will make the least different.  Mullard NOS and other 12ax7s can really tone down "brightness.  I occasionally use NOS Mullard CV491s as the input  tube in each amp.  They are equivalent to 12AU7s.  I lose a bit of gain but they sound great.  Usually I use Valvos as the input tube in each amp.  

I have a bunch of gear.  The M-150s used now are a great buy for the money.
