Value For Money : Excellent
Microcube a 10-watt (well that's what the salesman told me ... apparently it makes two, but I find it much more powerful then 10 XD), an Input Jack for the top (c ' is convenient to have sound: D), 1 x Rec / Phones for ... What his resume, to headphones or to register. Two Auxiliary IN: A jack basic (type headphones MP3) and a jack type guitar.
It can connect to power supply, or make it work with six batteries.
It is relatively light, portable, convenient.
The effects are very good value for money you put into. Several channels clean, several distortions, a channel directly to the microphones (without added effect). Gain, Volume, Tone, 4Efx (Chorus, Flanger, Phaser and Tremolo) + Delay / Reverb.
A digital tuning.

A while avoiding a beginners to buy pedals to play in an apartment and find an amp settings.

UTILIZATION

For a total beginner, you do not necessarily think to use the Tone knob from the start, so the sound will not be perfect in all areas but it is very easy to use, you plug it, we light it and it works immediately
Within hours you soon realize the potential of the amp and it goes very quickly to a clean sound to a very big sound distortion.

SOUNDS

I play a lot of things on it, to me it is suitable for almost everything. This is a truly versatile amp that goes up as its not too hard, it's still a small apartment amp.
I play it with an Epiphone Les Paul Ultra without other effects, you can have crystal clear sound with clean, quite fat distortion, it is very good to play as the classic metal.
For my part I love the Classic channel, to play a little while the metal is found. Channel R-Fier is also anything harder to handle and I find that it offers fewer opportunities.
I'm not a fan of the Brit Combo, Black panel or the Micro, or at least they do not match what I play.

Again, the price was very good sound, to stay in one room. I think that is attached to US Boss Roland, which could explain the many effects ... to confirm to me ^ ^

OVERALL OPINION

Microcube I use this for 2 months, it is great for training, there was a lot of possibilities, honestly I have not tested many other amps, but my luthier / dealer advised me for money I had left, I take it at this price it would be hard to beat.
I also played on a Fender 15w is not the same, and then a MG100DFX Microcube before buying this, but I preferred to spend more money in the Les Paul, and I think I would do this choice with the experience, although I would have rather focused on LTD, but is unrelated to the amp.
