All user reviews for the Marshall VS100R

I shall decide to notice because I find that the scores given by others surralistes!
This is an okay amp, but pretty bad so I understand why it is not so.

CHARACTERISTICS good, it's OK

UTILIZATION

Using too simple, RAS

SOUNDS

The same is when no joy. It happens not to get a REAL Marshall does not seem to be available within 1500.
Even if the sound is correct, the report qualitprix is ​​not good.

OVERALL OPINION

I have 6 years I think.
An amp that can ensure a minimum but no more.
I do not have that choice would do if I were to buy an amp (unless you have a case in hand) if not for the same budget you can do better.

Combo 100 watts transistor with prampli lamp.
A line-mule HP, an effects loop (in parallel range I think) with a two speaker outputs used by the original footswitch jack.
From left to right:
-The clear volume BMT
a switch "brigth" switch and a clean / OD
-Crunch sound: volume gain
a switch OD1/OD2
The saturated-gain contour volume BMT
a power switch and a switch dimension fx mix
a mix fx knob, reverb clean sound, reverb distortion.

Oh, and then the power button stopped too

For me there is all it takes is practice the three channels, but -2 for missing a master volume and a button to the effects loop on the pedals.

UTILIZATION

I lacated quite simple but it's been quite some time I have so I know him well.
the contour is rglage gnial, one can obtain large disto type nomtal clean but both sound good dgueulasses
the manual? bah ca not use that stuff a little l!
I remember look for the outline and the best is yet to test or even, I also respect what exactly has served the fx mix knob and switch and I find that so clear that c'tait ca, in fact I still do not use it too, but I'm not a fan of effects.

SOUNDS

In disto I find really good, some are to blame
Channel 1 but it's a complment for the second saturation, I use it for parts or I'm back.
For when you push against a bit of volume the sound becomes more clear gnial, it takes effect but it's still okay if it was not too big pickups
This amp should trs well to my style of music, although that aant changed since I bought it.

Important: this amp has nothing to do with transistor amps marshall / lamp current and dtest I tried.

6 for clear sound, 9.5 for the saturated (until I find better) so I put 9 (c I know not the average of the two)

OVERALL OPINION

I have over five years.
Rglage the contour can be very useful, we do not believe a single knob for varying the sound as much!
I had tried several including a Hughes & Kettner I almost bought, I ENTSO and I'm not letting go of prs (ADCON what it starts, I must changing the lamp).
Quality price ratio? In the era was the best, one reason for my purchase.

And YES I rachetrais!

Marshall 100Watt amp!
Possdant 1 clean and 2 overdrive sounds DIFFERENT!
The first is intended for pluto rocks are rglages with the volume and gaint
The deuxime pluto mtal rglages with gain, volume, treble, middle, and bass contour.
This amp has an FX or mixx Vou can modify it as you seem to sound a stone

UTILIZATION

A configuration very simple and can get a good sound facilemenr quickly trs

SOUNDS

This amp and really good in every way! Jen'm really pleased.
G ds have a group and we play mainly metal but also metallica (so you have a good clean sound for certain songs) and this amp has all my requirements arpondu ds I had lai!
I play with a top venssons (trs not sound good lol!) and an ESP Baritone APRS and its quiet you on the CHAMPS!

OVERALL OPINION

I am the User for a year now over my lesttique MARSHALL tjr more! Lol!
Before washing javais a 15 watt amp LIVE and change fue brutal !!!!! lol!
Quality level price I had doccaz lai and what ocaz! Lol!
This is my neighbor lol and washed twice served sen because it had a 100 watt Fender amps tube lol! lai bank so I ball 3000 (France)!

Certainly I believe that the same REFER choice but the chance I had for the price I never twice lauras lol! @ +

3 channels, clear, crunch, overdrive
reverb
circuit effect
...
the minimum

UTILIZATION

The use is not complicated particulirement. the equalizer starved of expression.

SOUNDS

Both say immediately clear sound is awful, useless, he is deaf and totally imprcis.
However the channels are saturated INTERESTED done everything we can get hot enough crunch or distortion agrssive you really will provide all supplmentaire pedals. the addition of a speaker is against deuxime strongly recommended.

OVERALL OPINION

I regret today to have a versatile amp as little as this, there are INTERESTED to saturation but I never saw him only once reconnected to the clear sound since I bought my fender.

Valve state technology
100W
Lamp preamp
3 channels: clean, crunch, lead
Footswitch
Reverb
Other effects somewhat useless (the "outline" for example is not really effective)

UTILIZATION

Easy to use.
Relatively simple adjustments, you must be kind to the volume knob and turn it with finesse to not piss off the neighbors.

SOUNDS

His marshall.
Not recommended for lovers of big sound ...
Personally, I do not like ... you to test and see!

OVERALL OPINION

I have not hooked up with this amp but it is faithful to his marshall. Finally, at least, the marshall's mid-range ...
A test for the novice on a budget who want to repeat the scene or in a group (because it is pointless to play on a 100W in his room unless you want to become deaf or piss off the neighbors)

There is in this combo has a prampli lamp .... when even a single lamp.
A baffle dlivrant 100 watts. Output is available in order to add speakers.
A reverb and nothing else.

UTILIZATION

Marshall is a configuration that is not easy to hear his guitar. Clean sound (volume, bass, middle, treble), a crunch sound (volume, gain) and another more complete overdrive (Volmer, contour gain, bass, middle, treble)
One can make the nag to the potentiometer thoroughly and there will be a good sound. with more precise adjustments we come to have a very good range of sound.
In addition, it was the power button size that delivers a low volume saturated with beautiful warm round bass .... Very very nice.
Another mix fx button allows a better definition of sound.
After much sure, dealing with two buttons for the clean reverb and overdrive.

SOUNDS

I play the villain metal .... lol .... with passages clean.
The clean sound is very good. I play clean with an esp ltd MH100 with a micro DiMarzio Tone Zone. A nice bluesy sound prsence and very enjoyable.
The crunch is far from terrible! but I do not care for me is that I want the saturated :::::::::::::::> it is good. You feel the prsence lamp. The sound is warm and there was trash have good sound with little regulation of potentiometer.
By removing the optional power dimension, we can increase the volume was deafening. pourmon me apart I can not put more than a 1 / 10 is to say.
Nanmoins, the sound is far from saturated appreciation for all styles of metal.
I change the original lamp for an EI 12AX7 for a more suitable home to train after the studio ... It's been a long time but I played it

OVERALL OPINION

I've had for years and years. It is very good for a game versatile home or apartment. For metals, it will not be enough for the scene but for rock and blues show, it is compatible with a small scene to see a big if he adds the speakers Supp.
It is very strong ... not a single failure.
Portable (which is not ngligeable ...)
At the time I bought it and my level of the time I buy it again. It is very good. Now I turned everything over to a small lamp.

Combo transistor with prampli lamp.
100W
Connection of faade: Input, period
On the back: Headphones, 2nd HP, effects loop, line out and footswitch.
3 channels: clear distortion crunch. Rglage EQ spar light / saturation, also spare rverb, adjustable contour on the distortion, very practical.
Spar volume for each channel but no master! What ide! Switch 'power dimension' which is supposed to ensure good record-low volume loadings. There's no saying it's better when you play hard

UTILIZATION

Trs simple, there's no rglages 50 per channel. on the other hand, it's hard to spend the crunch distortion, are too Different.
The sound is OK, even good plutt. Certainly it's not a marshall head with 6 lamps but plutt sounds good. The crunch has really a sound trs SPECIFICATIONS, although gaul for Deutsche rhythm, ideal for a power trio. The distortion is distortion bte: effective, not too runny, and you get to play with rglage contour. The Eq is correct without being hyper monstrous.
The clean sound is arbitrary. With proper warm guitar well, you can almost get a jazz sound, but must not ask too much either.
The biggest concern I had was adjust the levels between the three channels as there is no master volume, Gnant really!

SOUNDS

Amp rock and ... rock only! We could tease mtal pushed into the channel distortion but it's not his best area. For the rest, no, must not count on, the sound is clear enough to tickle the fun really DIFFERENT styles (funk, reggae).
For the rock effective, it is more than enough nanmoins. I never addition of distortion pedals to it, the rverb intgre is sufficient. With a good Les Paul, a sound not too bad. It's fat but can be slammed with a fender well RULES.
For my style, has spent itself, but it's not the amp for Everyone.

OVERALL OPINION

It must be 7 or 8 years that I have, I just change the lamp by Sovtek, has restored a youthful look a lil it more s'avre screaming now.
What I like about this amp is that it allows me to play at home with his dcent. I bought a big nampli (KH100 (https://fr.audiofanzine.com/produits/avis/index% 2Cidproduit 2C38346.html%)) which I am using for the concerts and this one helps me to extra now. Nanmoins, the VS100 has served me for years Previous, both in concert and RPET. For concerts it's a fair bit, it must be admitted.
I use it also when I record at home with the computer through the exit 'line out'. As a pramp I can push out and not too bad sound level. Certainly, a is not my Rivera with a good micro but adpanne well.

The report quality price good trs silent era (3150 FF if I remember correctly, late 1997). Now may be that I would opt more for a Peavey Classic 30, though, to play at home, it ComenC dj well bellow the rogue.
So for me it's an extra amp, good for rock only. To consider the purchase.

Prampli a lamp
A transistor power amp
One between a headphone jack and an effects loop
100 Watts
Two overdrives and a clean channel
A reverb switch power dimension (to play a low volume)
And a tone shift switch to plain medium.

UTILIZATION

The utilisatrion is relatively simple tones for channel 3 and three clear tones for saturated ...
Volume for each, the reverb and voila!
What manual need p ...
To the sounds ... they are gniaux .....

SOUNDS

This amp is well suited to all styles but thanks to its characters dmarque HardBranch on a Les Paul to hell it works on a strato not bad but I think one is better Fender amp. Indeed, the clean sounds are good but we find little better now.
The reverb is good but do not abuse it (a base ca dgueule a bit) ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 7 years
I do not regret my purchase because it is a good value amp quality price ...

100W, hybrid, 3-channel clear, and saturated crunch effects loop, a normal amplifier which, as it should.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, right, of course requires some fiddling to find the desired sound good but when we get results very quickly even rjouissants.
The manual provides prrglages good enough for many styles Different.

SOUNDS

The style of music should be rsolument rock, otherwise it will not please.
I play with a Yamaha AES 620 and the sound is good plain with two microphones (if one takes only the bridge pickup is a bit garish tropical and cold for my taste) and saturated with only the bridge pickup or both pickups.
I play ska punk and I can assure you that the clean sound is very warm and friendly, as well as the distortion is frank and severe.
Well of course it was not a JCM 900 in the hands ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year, I find it really useful, it sounds good from what I have read about him, he spits good (even if the sound level is too bright crunch ...) It is not too heavy, no problem for dplacer, it is robust ..
I had to do a dozen concerts, I never had a complaint against him ...

Technology Valvestate 100W combo amp, tube preamp (1 Ecc83/12ax7 home Ei, Yugoslavia, a little less stiff and aggressive than the Sovtek). Power amplifier transistor.

3 fully independent channels, channels 2 and 3 (OD1 and OD2) share the same EQ.

Comprehensive connectivity for an amp of this price range, with line-out (without level control) to HP emulation, parallel effects loop with level control and switch adjustment.
2 HP (8 ohms). headphone jack, footswitch (fourni. ... phew!).
the only effect on board this amp quite "old" and reverb (spring, please) of average quality but relatively honorable on this type of amp.

UTILIZATION

Using ultra simple, at worst, and the manual provided clear enough that even the less gifted among us are doing well!
This gives fast enough sound good on all three channels, all tube preamp that is felt and is very very good job!

SOUNDS

I use it for different types of music, from rock to nice phone, via Ben Harper (beaucoup. .. see a lot) by the Metallica to the big Boussin Machine Head, Korn, Slayer ... Jackson with EMG equipped with Seymour Duncan and former.

The clear sound of the amp is not his strong point, but it is far from yucky contrary to what some say. With a good set it is possible to leave a clean pretty cool.
The crunch channel (OD1) is probably the highlight of this amp, everything changes from AC / DC Iron Maiden, the grain is very nice, the lamp is good to feel the wonder Techonologies Valvestate done here!
Channel 3 (OD2) is the channel of the nags, the gain is much larger than the crunch channel, and quite progressive, pushed back a dislocated severe ca! with an equalizer dug in V we get a good big sound thrash metal present, without any external pedal. Pity it is that the equalization of the amplifier whether clean or saturated or very far from being the "world champion of efficiency" (as Marshall knew the majority of there ...) but the Adding a graphic equalizer ds loop works miracles!
Most metalheads (like me ...) think to change the lamp by a 12AX7 preamp R2 in Groove Tubes (one of the best Sovtek what!), A change that will do wonders on both are the sounds that cleans saturated with the amp!
It lacks the large distortion of the world's most accurate AC bcp tend to drool and feedback and by other feeback happens very quickly but could ... it sounds!

For power, 100 watts are announced here! Difficult to be caught without one in the power of the amp, at worst a lil connection to sound system via the sorites line out (which is very very good job) or a microphone in front of the HP and the problem is solved !

OVERALL OPINION

I use this amp for about 6 years and for this price range and what type of amp I'm very happy! Certainly it does not support any of the comparison with the sounds of an all-tube amp but here is not one. The tube preamp is very effective and is feeling very well, it sounds better than the bcp new MG series every transistor in Marsall Transtube or from home or a Peavey Vox Valvetronix (May right here in my opinion. ...).

For the subwoofer amp, it's tough, the Hp (a gold in the Black Celestion please, do not hit the high end but doing a very good job). Never had any concern, except that the receiver will sometimes purr of a sudden (or have a buzz going pti if you prefer) and I have no idea why, it did not come from the lamp (yet changed it recently) ... apparently shared a problem with a lot of users but which never lasts very long and usually disappears very quickly as soon as you play.

For this type of amp, ds this price range, especially for the price where you just find it on the market today OCCAZ (nickel at 300 euros easy) is a very good amp, a good compromise between an all transistors and all lamps, the time did not demand more than an amp of this type can provide! Excellent quality / price ratio!

Ultimately a very good investiessement who has not too much as an amp and looking at big fat beefy rock sound with a big power!

100W Transistor (1 lamp preamp OD2)
Son Marshall, no doubt
3 channels: clean, OD1, OD2 ^ EQ with the clean and OD common
Reverb separate clean / OD
Footswitch
effects loop
possibility to add a second HP
Emulated line output (for direct connection with the HP model)

UTILIZATION

What to settings (see above)

SOUNDS

The sound is very good. For a hybrid, it rocks a lot.
By taking the time we arrive to find a large enough range of sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

I have long been reluctant to replace it with any lamp.
This amp is at ease again as in concert, if we take the time to set properly.

Not much wrong in light of the report qualitprix .......
But it sounds really good and it MARSHALL
Of course there are better, but there are worse especially with sries Valvestate that came out of APRS (the cuts could not rendering and overall fragility of the components)

In short, a good old apmli makes for RPET and live with the stitching table audio .......

UTILIZATION

The rglages are simple and relatively prcis

the two distortion channels are diffrenciables

the clear sound of it ............ marshall, we like it or not

SOUNDS

Clean channel - Clean but lacks EHJV

Disto channel 1 - Tip-top for the blues or funk

Disto channel 2 - coupled with one or two small effects it sends the heavy, but lacks a bit of precision

OVERALL OPINION

I say yes to the old Valvestate ............ wish it was hard to find in good condition

100-watt amplifier transistor preamp with a lamp ECC83 [12ax7]
3 channels: clean, overdrive1, overdrive2 with reverb for each channel
loundseakers taken to add an enclosure to put a headphone headset, footswitch to change channels at the base, making emulated for connecting a MIDI device, and an FX loop jack to plug in effects loop internally.
All these fields this allows a large branch and gives it a certain versatility.
other hand it is portable, robust and above all true!
He never made a bad surprise despite its almost 8 years and many rehearsals and concerts, he holds up grandpa!

UTILIZATION

The setting is really simple, everything was done to ensure this, you play, it's not like you, you correct.
Sought and the sound described as "one" comes first guitar and the one that drives do not forget it! If the sound is bad think to ask you some questions you ask. Why do I have a dirty sound? Amp? guitar? guitarist? or combination, too, amp and guitar, and guitarist, guitarist, and see Amplifier 3.
The manual? anyway no one reads the manuals even if I material is complicated, it is a French specialty, when it is very simple to solve please!

SOUNDS

The first thing to know is that it delivers the sound depends on the quality of your guitar and the output level. On the other hand I suggest you do some power dimension in action for all sounds.
it breaks down into three channels:
- The clean channel provides an array of sounds quite big, the other relatively bright tone and punchy giving him a smile.
I have a setting to provide you with: 7 bass, middle 5, 9 and reverb treeble 2.5. I personally have an Ibanez JEM (center position, intermediate or high) and a gibson les paul standard (middle or high position, these are the pickups régalges
- Allows the channel overdrive1 allows him to get out of small sounds bluesy and greasy, or to more rock black desire sympatic property. gain 2.5, bass 6.5, 4 middle, and reverb treeble 7 2.5
- Channel overdrive2 meanwhile is more incisive, his favorite playground is the rock for sure, you yet to find the groups that correspond to it.
I also have a small sound for you: gain 6.5, stroke 6.5, 6 bass, middle 4, 6 and reverb treeble 2.5.

So of course this amp does not quite, remember that it is mono and transistor. Channel FX loop is provided, so feel free to use it because it was made for!

OVERALL OPINION

I own this amp for almost 8 years it seems to me, he knew many rehearsals and concerts without fail! It is on this that I made the most progress since I bought a Marshall JCM2000 DSL602 all lamps.
Valvestate series was a popular series of amps in my day (yes, I'm 25 ...) by a whole generation of small scratch in fat with long hair and ripped jeans and Doc Martins knees, I do not know if the new series are as good, at least not in the MG series with no preamp with lamp.
The report quilted / price is excellent because it is found to aujoud'hui ue song.
I always use this amp for rehearsals, at home and some concerts because I can not part with it, more and combined with different effects it is not bad at all!

Hybrid amplifier, ie the pre-amp and tube power amp is solid state.
100W: I never rises to more than one-half either in concert or in repeats or outdoors ..
HP 12 "Celetti
3 channels: 1 clean, 2 disto: OD1 and OD2 (a more full bodied than the other).
1 input jack for the guitar,
An effects loop,
An output side (to dub the amp no mic),
1 output for a second chamber,
1 reverb resort
a footswicth

I do not put 10 in that the output for a transplant of breath and can not be used (be it somewhat as mine to show)

UTILIZATION

I use it in my room, and repeat with a group of pop / rock.

It's very simple to use. One branch, there is an equalizer in the neutral (middle) and it sounds. There is no need to understand manual with two buttons.
No need to take the lead for the settings, just a little test by changing the EQ and reverb.

There is only one EQ for disodium 2.

SOUNDS

Perfect for rock, pop, blues (its hot enough).
Ephiphone I have a Les Paul Custom.
I never get too much gain, matter of taste.
I like the bass up on the clean channel when I fall on the canals of distos.
For a more retro I put the outline on the 3-OD2.
For a more funk and slamming into just clean up the treble and midrange and bass kiss (TIMPs careful!)

The sound is very good for an amp of this price range. I had the opportunity to test an all-tube Marshall ... they really are better but more expensive too!

If you want to take a less powerful, remember that the size of HP is very important. In fact a 12 "is the minimum if you want good sound.

OVERALL OPINION

This is my first amp for 6 years! Already.
This is a great amp, I much prefer this series to the news of Marshall where he felt compelled to put built-in effects (big mistake!).
With this amp you can go to concerts unscrupulous it is perfectly built for ca.
Excellent value! It is also a value: if you purchase it will not lose value.
It was the best selling amp (it is no longer produced, sniff) and we understand why: cheap and great.

If I redeem myself Devaya a little amp that I will be an all-tube, but I am richer than when I bought it! In any case I feel no need to change.

It is a hybrid of the last void and is a good reason to buy it! For what it's all integrated zero: one does not choose its sound (different brands ...) and it's too sythétique. At least this amp it has a soul!
