Transistor amplifier.
Power: 150 Watt
Full connectivity (with input swicht active / passive, effects loop, XLR output jack and the little + and for an amp of this power: the headphone jack (for those who like me are in an apartment)).
In terms of setting there is a 3-band EQ (bass, medium and high) with the characteristic for media to be divided into two bands (low-mid and hi-mid) which allows for very precise control of low do you spend a little time.
There was also a compressor whose action is confined solely to make the sound more even. For those who like their compression set to a quarter of hair go for a pedal because it remains discreet and limited but not inéficace.
The volume control is done through adjusting the preamp and master. I do not find interesting preamp saturation with the volume all the way (the transistor you tell me ...) but these two buttons allow a smooth and precise adjustment of volume (important detail when you can play hard home).
There is also an input for external source always come to train or play a headphone with a drum machine or a cd.
The HP can be a disconnect in déconnété jack at the rear of the preamp
The tweeter also not be disconnected or mitigate a interuptor back.
So a 9 to cause the compressor that I thought better but other than that everything is top.

UTILIZATION

The setup is rather simple, even classical. Only the setting of medium is a little difficult at first but once you understood coment it work so good.
Also because of the medium setting to obtain the desired sound can be tricky at first. However I had no trouble finding my own after some ten minutes to grind the buttons.
The quality of HP Eminence is also the appointment. For a small combo I find the sound excellent.
The manual is very basic, but are you one really need??

SOUNDS

This combo is well suited to my game that operates in all that rock to metal and funk. I think he can adapt to both jazz.
I play a Warwick Corvette Standard and is a joy, I have a round peus or bring out the grain of the low no problem with the fat. The slapping sounds good with the compressor's original amp (bcp mieu rumble as the 100 I had). I n'uttilise a distortion pedal Multidrive BSE and the whole marries perfectly.

OVERALL OPINION

I uttilise for 1 month and I am very happy. I was looking for a simple configuration and éfficacecet I typed in 1000.
For value for money I find it a little high anyway ... but this stuff is worth it for that price even though he'll have still been able to compressur a more effective ... :-(
I do it again this choice without hesitation, hoping to find used rather than pay the price of nine.
8 for the price too high.
