UTILIZATION

Time to get srieuses ...

The setup: it's easy, well, it's a 16 W, the branch, one branch and balance it ...
It is with 5 knobs: one for volume, and 4 best efforts to settle low, sharp, high mids and low mids.
Sound: It is very easy to get the sound you want, that little cube has a sacred fishing in the lower ...
Manual: Frankly, for a 16 W, you open the manual? Anyway, if you feel the need, no worries, clear and concise.

SOUNDS

Personally, it's the amp with which I started and I can tell you that is excellent in the face of a scratch that spit of 30 W, believe me, it was great the way, say anything ( yes yes you read correctly, 16 W, 30 against). I jou punk, metal, ska, reggae, pop ... And a unit for the metal or it starts to limit (a face of 30 W), I never had a repprocher him. A faithful to his bass, that's what you can say!
Cort Action Bass with a classic beginner's bass, and a Boss metalzone, everything is fine;).
I would not go up that you can draw her a 'lens', but when it comes to rock, no worries.

I hate the sounds? I spend ...

OVERALL OPINION

This amp in my room trolling for 4 years and it is still new. D an incredible strength, you do not you complain.
Before buying it I did not test for other models, so I go with the advice of the seller, who does not deceive me. Apart from a first model that I have of their return (the amp to Cramer during a feast of the birthday or I'd shoot a background), I n I had absolutely no problems since with the new, even at the bottom!

The quality / price was not bad n al time, it's cost me less than 200 euros (may be less, the figures and me ...).

What to remember about this amp? It's really basic amp, if you are new, I will challenge you to find better in this price range, the KBA16 is really excellent, and it makes me laugh when I hear some people say that d must be a minimum of 100 W to start, I have long jou with with dots scratch more powerfully, and a drummer (a real one, who clapped, sisi) and I would do this choice with his eyes closed ... as beginners, although even to play in the apartment or the headphone it is terrible that little;).

Uh ... just one thing, I wonder where they went fishing that this amp is worth 70 euros al argus?
