Everything has already been said.

UTILIZATION

I have a French manual, and it is rather well done I must admit. This is the real French, with clear and phrases concisent. The translation is perfect. To use the amp better now, it is essential to read the manual. We should not be out of St. Cyr to understand the operation, but the amp with so many possibilities, he must still read and fiddle with the amp to understand how it works, but quickly becomes simple.

SOUNDS

Then, it puts everyone in agreement. Here is THE amp I was looking for a long time. I had Marshall (transistor and lamp, whose JVM410C), I tried the Fender (transistor and light mid-range) of line 6, and multi effects pedal (Korg). I acknowledge that apart from the JVM410C, I have always remained in the entry and mid-range. But, hoooooooooo surprise. How an amp of this price may issue such a ?????????????? I still do not understand. The sound is really, really, really good. I rediscovered the guitar with this amp. The effects are pretty good too, not to say very good. Only the chorus is a little behind. Normal, I had an Analog Chorus pedal before. Its clean and fast enough to crunch through (very good indeed, but not necessarily desired). While reducing the gain, but then it lacks a bit of fishing.
It is clear that this amp is rocker. AC / DC, Metallica, Offspring, Guns n 'roses go well with. For blues players, I do not think it will do.
I really recommend this amp is that of happiness.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this amp for a week. I let go. Several hours of play per night.
The value is simply unbeatable prices, incomprehensible. I repeat, how could release a VOX amp is also good quality at a price so small?

What I like most: Everything (almost)
What I like least: The chorus is a little behind, clean and crunch by quickly. Lowering the gain, we avoid the problem (a problem that is not necessarily because ca crunch of high quality, but when we are looking for a clear sound is more annoying), but lowering the gain , we find ourselves having to quickly push the volume to make up for this loss of power.
We also regret to have only eight storable presets. It was not difficult for VOX I believe, to put a little more. But ...

I would do selected EF 1000000000000000 times!
NOTE: I have not yet tried in groups. But according to other opinions, just power level.
