UTILIZATION

I definitely recommend taking a few minutes to sit down and figure out this amp. It is put together pretty well, but the combination of multiple models, effects, and saved presets can be a little confusing at first. I'd recommend this as a practice amp, not necessarily as a beginners amp.

The different models cover a wide range of tone. When first selected, they are dialed in at preprogrammed settings that sound pretty good, you can tweak from there.

The effects always drove me a little crazy, as they are setup in preselected combinations that you really can't do anything with.



SOUNDS

The amp boasts an impressive collection of sounds. They aren't perfect, but will get you close enough for practice. Lets face it, hybrid doesn't really mean anything. The one preamp tube doesn't do anything noticeable, it doesn't even heat up enough to warrant a vent. It's a marketing technique used by a number of companies,and the amp should really be treated as solid state.

Its important to note that this amp really does not take pedals well at all. I've used it to run some very high end OD pedals, they came out sounding fizzy and just all around bad. You can get away with wah, EQ, loopers, some delay, gates etc. But I would definitely avoid any kind of dirt going into it.

Its only 15 watts, but I've totally used it alongside loudish drummers before. It gets lost pretty fast with a lot of loud amps in the room, but otherwise will hold its own pretty well.

OVERALL OPINION

My DA15 has been my travel amp for many years now, and has flown across the Atlantic quite a few times. The small size and abundant features really make it the perfect amp to box up and throw under a plane. Mine is finally starting to show some signs of wear, but considering the number of times its been thrown on and off a conveyor belt, its hardly surprising.

All in all, I've been very happy with the amp, and see myself using it on the road until it finally falls apart.

The DA-15 is an all-digital modeling amp with an output of 15W book domestic use (with an HP digital 15W 8 ", not 15W lamp with a 12" !)... Not to be confused with the AD-15VT of the same brand! their common point bnficier many of the same effects section: <ul>
11 amp types modliss.
11 effects types of digital and a noise reductor.
Signal Processing: 24-bit (Both A / D and D / A conversion), 44.1 kHz sampling frequency
Input / Output Jacks: INPUT, FOOT SW, LINE / PHONE
Power Amp Output: Maximum 15W RMS @ 8 ohms
Speaker: 1 x 8 inch, VOX original (8 ohm) </ul>

UTILIZATION

If the handling is simple stepfather 1 First, it is not so obvious that to get this sound correct vritablements ... roland on this one is much more evident. I find the bands three qualiseur mdiocre (range rglage too strait)

SOUNDS

I do not impose a decision (the sound is something queleque trs subjective) but I highly recommend this amp to compare with the equivalent Roland before RULING ... I for my part prfre the Roland. not see anything with his collgue AD 15VT (lamp / transistor) amplifier numrique so good it sounds numrique!

OVERALL OPINION

To be honest, I bought and sold aussitt essay for AD 60VT of a different price of course, but with a much broader pallet of possibilities and all levels of sound no comparison

Is almost exactly the same as the CHARACTERISTICS AD 15 VT, but the lamp ...
Power of 15 watts between guitar, console output or headphone jack footswitch ...
11 presets modlisations amp (see that of the AD 15 VT for dtails) SETTING THE gain, volume, bass, mid, treble and effects (11 effect types, some Combine Type chorus, reverb etc ...) and a master volume, all assignable to 2 channels.
I put 9 and not 10 for both channels forcment which limits the use of the amp.

UTILIZATION

The config is simple, the effects rglage it is a little more complex, but nothing insurmountable ...
The sound is really excellent, some rglages forcment necessary to find happiness.
The manual is quite clear in French
I put 9 because rglages effects might be a little easier

SOUNDS

It is quite versatile, it remains even when a Vox, trs typical blues and rock, but the sounds will surprise you type mesa boogie and sounds beautifully clear crystalline delight you.
It can also scream loud volume, it's safe, it's the least we can say.
I play it with a Steinberger GM4S team of EMG, forcment rang ...
I am glad extrment sound of this amp, I am totally in love ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few days, the major complaint is the lack of assignable channels (only two, but hey, for this type of amp dj v'est not bad) but otherwise it's the war, however, can be used with the optional footswitch VFS2 and have almost three channels as the first switch is footswitch to change channels and can be configured in deuxime bypass to bypass the effects loop, allowing live to have a clean sound and a saturated sound for solos with such delay.
I have not tried other models, but I read many opinions and it seems that Vox is made with a shot matre The series with the Valvetronix and DA SERIES.
Note that there are also 5-watts (DA 5)
Report qualitprix incredible 190 Euros, it's been given the quality ...
The amp is 15 watts of references that the price IMHO ...

In terms of any adj t CHARACTERISTICS said.

UTILIZATION

The amp is set up quite easily and the manual provided (in French) will dispel all your interrofations.
This gives a good sound very easy, from blues to rock to the sounds well saturated just choose it can do everything.
The manual seemed to me clear trs (I have traveled very little in the end because the use is quite comfortable).

SOUNDS

This amp should totally my style of music and all styles of music from elsewhere (as long as one wants to play in his living room for the lightning to pass it scne something more powerful).
I currently play a Fender Stratocaster from home, the sound is excellent, clear purity are of thunder, I also test with a Les Paul Standard from Gibson and you can get a standard rock sound, fantastic for that price!
I love all the sounds this amp can produce ds it is really thundering configured.
I put 9 out of 10 on this point, it's almost perfect!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over 2 months now.
To me there is no more than less (for a 15W course)
I test a Fender amp and a Marshall
The report price is trs good quality (I got it for 130 euros)
I would do without this choice hsitation, a beautiful little Vox amp really the best in its class, do not buy a Marshall, which are more expensive and less efficient I got (I speak of course amps 15W when switching powers more lvs Marshall amps show their supriorits).
In short if you play in your living room and want a good amp gui can send big sound for cheap, it's the one for you!
