«  Basic, but it is amazing at this price? »

A plastic case that for a chinoiserie rather inspires confidence
We do not feel it will go quickly ..it has volo something.
The feel is nice and the weight is pretty light.
Next operation:
A prominent OFF button ON /
Led operating a "amp"
2 stereo jacks, one for headphones or an identical but output & input (for MP3 player or other example)
3 knobs for sound (volume, and acute gain)
No need to study to use it!.
We can obviously do without the manual (a single sheet)
I forget a small cover on the battery location (2 AAA not included)

UTILIZATION

The configuration is unfortunately fast "flared".
The acute ie "treble" knob will not be too useful to me.
The settings are essentially level with the gain and volume.
Point bar. Easier it is difficult.

SOUND QUALITY

It was basically two possible sounds:

CLAIR minimizing the level of gain the maximun
Incidentally they could provide a gain in Zero with the active volume for a "real" its clear !! but no it is not possible to leave Zero ++

OVERDRIVE variable depending on the level of gain you put good but it remains on the same niche!. I am going to like it because it is very similar to guitar sound "Béruriers Black" type one of the few bands I can often play the guitar part (I forget to mention that I have no resemblance to Paco de lucia or Jimi Hendrix ...). on the other hand for metalheads go your way.

I tested with an Ibanez Talman TCM50.

Ha if I forgot the 3rd possible with; ^ / Breath ... !!
Even if you push the knob acute course.

OVERALL OPINION

I just got it so I have not had time to get an idea.
That said given the simplicity of the beast I do not see what I can find
more ????? !!!!!!
No luck I have no other experience with this type of case (like Vox amPlug ..) so I have no point of comparison, strictly speaking.

Or rather: I also vaguely something similar: a pocket amp Palmer.
If Palmer breath as the comparison stops there
[(Grrrr..si even the Krauts do not, then with China is almost normal breath it: ^))))) okay okay ..I kidding ..]
The range of sounds Palmer is another level even if we remain in the way to which is the setup. But this is not the same price either.

To put it simply a purist may no problem yelling: "This is crap."
Honestly it will probably not wrong.
But for that price (purchased on the sign that has a boob) I took the risk (very limited !!!)

To a nomad (my case) pleasure / price / weight / service provided is pretty good! and I avoid lugging cables or other small amps or not (always larger than the Nux, even for the palmer pocket amp).
His main obstacle is in my opinion no change in her ... It's really very limited. Attention has made it before acquiring under penalty of being very disappointed.
Rocker, Rocker and Hard other metalheads seems to be the worst buyers Nux
For clear sound (my main indication) it will again.
on the other hand, if the "Punk" genre Beru ie Overdriver please it will be perfect.
