«  Excellent: as expected! »

UTILIZATION

Well extremely simple, one knob and one switch.
against by the builders took a nasty habit of doing internal dip switches ... especially for an equal bass / treble (I have the version with bass / treble and not with the last level / treble although ca surely must return to the same)!
while these two switches are very effective matcher with the guitar that is used ... dc not cool.
I'd be out a mod with 2 buttons on the box ...

SOUND QUALITY

Ben is the top! as expected after reading advice and test on the net. Better than the samples utube!
I just put my head entry Diezel Einstein 100w after distos pedals with 2 switches to ON.
I did not really want a boost of volume (in fx loop) but a gain boost that pushes a little crunch channel of Einstein and beautify my distos (guitar, MI NeoFuzz ​​audio, Mi Audio Blues Pro, Mi Audio Crunch Box BB Preamp) giving a more "back and thick." Ben is won!

The result with the gain at 9am EP:
- Clean in clarity and warmth, a fuller sound, more volume too round and slamming, resume settings bass / mid / TREB initial head to refine
- In crunch is divine crunch channel of my Eny (Texas fashion for those who know) also becomes more dense, furious. Need to lower the treble a bit to not find it too aggressive with the SG Ok but with the LP.
- In lead (channel 2) with the gain of the head at 9am, I have a lead blues again very dense, warm, slightly fuzz boost with the EP, which is a treat. Finally: I like to me at least ...
- With pedals in front, like: they are magnified by the EP which again gives a richer sound, dense and powerful. Brief heavy rock sound anything! Maybe the EP booster effect is less comfortable with the Neo Fuzz: I still need more testing and in my case it would put the dip switch on treble off with the brilliance of the head and in the guitar ... (On top of the switches ... harrr)

I will not say "to resume eyes closed" because we're talking about taste texture that everyone loves or not ... but good try imperatively mini.

OVERALL OPINION

super happy with the result in gain boost / texture. I would take without asking question.
