Small head of all-tube amp 18W
2 channels, 1 boost
XLR output with HP calculator

UTILIZATION

Simple and classic config, controllable with a standard 2 channel footswitch.

SOUNDS

Very good clear sound, the settings are effective, we can get very bright or very round sound without saturating with good presence.
Distortion channel: big disappointment for me, not a super grain crunch rather cold actually. No presence (currently lamps there?) ... Fetching of metal sounds, not enough gain and boost only adds a very rough appearance to the whole. Impossible to leave the mix group.

OVERALL OPINION

I used it once again, no sound, no grain, unusable group what ... Good after this is only my opinion metalhead, but apart from the clear, I do not like at all this amp, I sold and replaced by a Laney IRT studio for the same price offers much better sound quality and a wider range of sounds (and spring mix it!)
