Transistor amplifier, 2 x 120w, c the already robust, with ventilation. we feel the power of a particular baffle 4 hp, thanks to tweaks including many think. resonance that allows the presence greatly increases the bass speakers, simulating an open or closed. presence to control the treble and it's going off the frequencies ds !!!!. and in addition I used the button that adds dimension to saturation by simulating a receiver pushes a bottom, c ca convincing enough to give her a good catch.
you can branch out of 4 hp, but already a stereo speaker sonne.selecteur 4 hp AC impedance of 4, 8 and 16 ohms.

UTILIZATION

C super simple to use, one branch, the volume is if you connect over a nice little tube preamp ca add some warmth to the sound, which do a little lacking in this power amp. I use it with a preamp and an engl E530 gx 700, I keep this setup for 4 years. I used a baffle 4 hp at 1960 vintage marshall.

SOUNDS

Well, it have nothing to do with a power amp tube of the same power is obvious and for the price and robustness of the device frankly, when you have way too much AC can provide good level volume and in concerts or in studio.
I was advised to start a power amp peavey PA type, cheaper and more powerful, but any adjustment and it is faster than c is defined not just do for the guitar.
I have a friend who uses it for bass and is very happy too.
it is quite versatile and allows, with a good preamp, a palette of its very varied.

OVERALL OPINION

I used it for 4 years, 4 years of proud and loyal service, he never gave up, never lost power. for the marshall is really tough (nothing to do with the power amps marshall lamps that are much more fragile)
I love its power and strength.
a small flat on the lack of heat and the weight of the device.
for the price compared to other models, that is a good surprise in Marshall, tough c, it sounds right now, short indestructible. but prefer him a little tube preamp with because it lacks a bit of heat.
no worries, I would do this choice with eyes closed, if you are stuck at a little money for a tube power amp, it's really a good option if you want the volume and presence you have.
