Value For Money : Excellent
Amp modeling, 2x60W, shielded connectors tare, 99 effect presets, etc. .... basically, everyone has spoken ...

personally, I would have liked more than one channel, but hey, the price of the Beast (200 € on the internet), I really do not moan!

UTILIZATION

Configuration childish enough to know to solve a 3-band equalizer, presence, volume and drive ...
modeling of amps are varied (tweed, british, and calif)
the three types of gain, conventional (clean, crunch, and the hot boost)
Finally, three types of HP (flat, UK, U.S.) the flat is simply the use of his normal HP of the amp, but hey, all the models used, they are good.

for the effects of the 99 presets, is enough to make his choice, even if ultimately we are left with less than ten used. twelve o'clock connectivity allows you to use to best effect, since base can not be resolved by a single characteristic effect.

SOUNDS

Well, I confess l, c is my first amp (well, at the beginning had a small j kustom 15w) and I have not had much opportunity to test (a part of the house ValveKing a peavey) and as a "young "guitarist, all I was looking for c sound stupid, well, frankly, I m tired ... this little corny allows exploring lots of different sounds without spending hundreds and hundreds of euros every time ... super versatile, my preferences are for the current tweed with a hi gain and an HP U.S. bluesy sounds super hot, that I used rather than clean (large defect of tweed, his lack of volume) and hot-calif UK for the big meetal delamorkitu ... and then play with chorus, delay, rotary (Onk Onk!) from time to time to flesh all this.

some regrets all the same, as the inability to use the amp without modeling (in any con transistor amp, it would be a plus, and then it cost nothing ^ ^) and the lack of volume tweed (british or spend in calif tweed on the same channel need to increase the volume)

otherwise, nothing to say, it sounds a wonder, he even improved the sound of my shovel! (I played on a whale-ST WPSL LH, so a guitar sound entry level, I still expect to be able to connect an LP ^ ^)

OVERALL OPINION

I've had about the 4 months I used the enormously since c is the only one that I have, I served in amp room and repeated (at last time to receive my little smokey amp) and frankly, I am fully satisfied, for price you can not ask for more in the genre ... And then it allowed me to change a lot of opinions on behringer.

its nice, full, powerful, if you want an amp mod a small price, do not hesitate!

I would do the selection with closed eyes, I want to buy even more!
with more resources, I might be off on a light amplifier, and I think I would start looking at a behringer / BUGERA
but with the v-tone, I have time to look ahead, 120W, I am not prepared to need more
