USE

The use is very simple is connected and it is easy to play the right sound

SOUNDS

This amp is perfect for all roots rock blues styles ...
IT has the sound but cons I have a very audible ground noise that prevents me enjoy

NOTICE GLOBAL

I for 1 month is very good with a very good value for money but the sound mass that he clears prevents me from ex ploite its potential

amp head lamp, 15w switchable in 7.5w Equalizer 3-band mode or distortion clean, bright and thick with vox.

UTILIZATION

it could not be simpler config ... you plug in the HP (112NT vox bought for the occasion) into 16 ohms please. Heating lamps expected, you put your jack with his guitar at the end, and the strings on guitar.

SOUNDS

The vox sound? Yes and no. Vox sound, of course, because that's what it says on the plate mark, but the limit is that, it is underestimated. The range of sound is breathtaking. The clean almost like a dry scraper, the fat has keith richards, dirty spot that way metallica with the gain knob donf ...

A killer. An outgoing debutant transistors would never imagine that this amp only 15wtts so the volume ... There's enough to keep a head 100w transistor seriously. The attenuator is frankly welcome, no one benefits from the district rioting. I seem to exaggerate? appointment at the corner music shop, test it with a gibson, turn pentode, thick and volume donf you will see what I mean ... not for nothing that it is so noted. Ruffling power, and, above all, the power is not transferred to the quality, the bazaar is full.

this little toaster (if AC has the form anyway?) is exceptionnel.Mais the bread, he no grid, he sends.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a few days, I am more digital player (axeFXII), I bought it for a particular occasion.

I find it so much more fun than I expatiate on the flaws that I found:

- The thick mode (distortion) is good, but ... I do not know, it could have been a little more boost, fall into the big big sound spot and record the return oranges yves duteil heads.

- The reverb, delay ... it lacks. I have an MXR chorus that fits him like a glove pedal, I have not suffered, but if it is not, purchase necessary! the first of your pedalboard!

- A general point to vox, not for this amp: Mr vox, your settings are vintage buttons, but they are seriously CHEAP. a finer polish on it, it would cost not millions, right? surprise me that john, paul, george had the Korean plastic adjust their sound. A little effort! across from marshall it's brushed metal button, at least not when we see ca ages or fire the material down to save money!

excellent value for money, we are not disappointed. We can not be with the small grid brave bread.

I absolutely do this choice. Besides, I would never sell mine, na.

Purchased in October 2012 on a whim really, and I'm sorry (for once).

The reason is this: the machine accepts no baffle under 8 ohms, all configs boxes I have available I can never more than 5.3 ohms so tintin.

In addition, no effects loop, and I hate sounds saturax dry. Of course this group is less critical, but then it will be rather directed to a bigger amp so it is a pity that all this must not listen to the moon ...

All lamp, even the ac power section 15 according to manufacturer triode mode available, switch saturax ditto, very active EQ efficient (more than zero sound).

I AC15 and I wanted the equivalent laptop is missing the two amps have nothing in common.

UTILIZATION

Very simple to use if you have the right impedances box.
Very little residual noise, a lot of gain available.

The sound is immediate, it is very sound in pan.
In fact those who laughed when they saw the thing not laugh when they hear more!

So we can say, no making head, it sounds without turning knobs hours is effective situation, and a 412 with a drummer playing nasty carefree.

SOUNDS

Okay it sounds presto, but how? I was disappointed because I expected more or less one AC15 pocket there is not. So I compare and here:

The sound is much harder, lack of flexibility and musicality, the wooded side of the AC15 disappears completely brief Vox has created a new amp here.

on the other hand you earn his saturax versatile in its range gain, but you need to choose as it is not foot switchable.

With this kind of minimalist amp you inevitably end up with a pedalboard on clean channel, not dreaming, and then the ac 15 is much nicer weight apart.

The clean volume available is amazing, it's really hard, you can play funk group carefree, and the relative hardness of assistance even to pierce the mix.

So together with the AC15 output stage does not crash and remains clean, not surprising that the design recipe to make since the dawn of time!

OVERALL OPINION

Well, we relativized by the fact that I was expecting something else, not the fault of the amp huh.

I notice that on the other hand is that all the amps I've had tubes between the legs, those are always hard sound active equalization. Those passive equalization are softer but actually quite inefficient (when it's not unusable as top boost channel of AC15).
I will sell the nighttrain to move on, new side equalization.

I think the baxandal installed on ampeg guitar amps, it seems to be both gentle and highly effective.

It remains, however, that this is a very good nighttrain amp actually going to try before you buy because I do not agree with those who find typical vox.

The Vox Night Train is Vox's answer to the low wattage game. Offering a reasonable mixture of portability and sound quality, the Night Train is one of the nicest low cost tube amps on the market as of 2012. The Night train's front panel is adorned with a simple array of controls. Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass, Volume. Two toggle switches offer advanced control over your sound. The operating mode switch functions as a standby and half power switch, while a second toggle allows you to choose between bright and thick modes. Engaging the Thick mode bypasses the amp's Eq and allows for more gain to be applied to the sound. The amp is 15 watts but can operate at 7.5 watts with the half power switch engaged (using the triode selection) and runs on a pair of el84's.

UTILIZATION

The Vox's simple layout makes getting a good sound a straight forward endeavor, however the lack of an effects loop or the ability to select channels makes the amp decently compromised in the eyes of a gigging musician. These missing features can easily be forgiven though considering the affordability granted to an all tube circuit. The amp takes pedals fairly well without the effects loops and the amp is plenty loud if you are mic-ing your backline (and you should be).

SOUNDS

I played through the Vox Night Train with a Gibson Les Paul Traditional w/ stock pickups. I used a Mesa 2x12 cab. No pedals.


The amps clean sounds are very pleasant and compliment a variety of guitars. I primarily tested the Night Train with a dark sounding, mahogany body guitar and the bright mode made the guitar sparkle. The tube circuit provides for nice articulation in your sound. Engaging the thick mode, you are able to drive the amp very hard and cover many genres. The drive sounds performed excellently and I found myself often forgetting that I was playing a $300 amp.

OVERALL OPINION

The Vox Night train is an excellent solution for those who need a portable, all tube design. The affordability of this amp is unparalleled when comparing the sound quality of it's neighboring price points.

I put correct because it lacks small thing to make it a killer (vox go take this into account we get out a night train 2 with Edit and you kill the walk not really)
What is missing to achieve this perfection: an opportunity to put a boost footswitch and an effects loop and reverb with this would be perfect.
This is like everything but it can not be all over
Otherwise the 15 W lamp with the reduction of half built very well for the home
the bag super weight and size of this head is great for the lumbar tired

UTILIZATION

There's no easier I put my personal background to the equalizer is guitar and vox sound that melts and the rest of the sounds of the fire god

SOUNDS

I put perfect because that's exactly the desired sound pressure to the grain was still usable but not its three switchable it's stupid I swear
But otherwise it's a round warm wishes Christalin
the light is a killer and is clear if you turn up the volume and remains pretty even at low volume and those malgrés put in half the wattage
The crunch is crazy with the touch of the guitar dous we get a clear sound to still be the first attack and it's a crazy thing
and boosted channel with all the plumpness
It is true that I play gibson usa supreme and suddenly it has to play but there is still something of this amp I promise you
add to a plain reverb and delay, and in saturate you parter I'm on the land of happiness Audible

OVERALL OPINION

Very very good amp but with a mod make over is a killer
I make great separates for its more powerful and with a footswitch and an effects loop in order to have what I was hoping to have the same sound I recommend it to all lovers of pure sound of the blues to rock feel and he sends me is worth at least been one day in your set

Amplification lamp, with two outputs 8 or 16 ohm jack. There are two different mode which delivers 15 watts pentode or triode which delivers 7.5 watts of heat is well on his less than impressive 15 watts but very handy for playing in an apartment or a low volume.
The settings are very basic volume, gain, 3 band eq. It there's also a selector that allows for a more distorted: (thick or bright). I find that on the other hand équalo does not necessarily answer very well, I think it does not act on a very wide frequency range, but you can easily remedy it with a external eq.

UTILIZATION

Simple Setup, see the description. This is a lamp of her!

SOUNDS

This amp head gives a well has the English, very crunchy and not really distorted. The clean sound is great, very clean (no multi effect).
I use it with a lag and a jackson rr3 RX200, recently I tried it with my ovation, it gives a big power to electro acoustic guitars while being very accurate, I found it very interesting.
On top of that so I use a multi effect (PODxt), which gives this amplifier has a wide range of sound. Being very versatile in my guitar playing (jazz, metal, blues and reggae, among others) This amp has satisfied me with its versatility.
I use it with a Marshall 1912 cabinet.
In this room REPEAT do not too bad but my drummer hits hard so I flagged down flap on the mesa that sending still more wood, but for concert or transplanted by a microphone that do it well.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this amp for almost a year.
I bought a nimes or there was little choice in this price range, so I took the day to try almost all models of the store, what I advise also to do as a notice on Audiofanzine not worth your own ear. So I opted for the one, already in the price: 400euros coupon with the store, then because I thought it was the one who put more value in my guitars.
I would do the selection without problems but as said above I also took the time to do it, I think this is not a purchase to do in the air and if you can bring your test instruments.

So that's it! A small notice that I was asked to do! Go!

15 watt all-tube amp, as would the slogan 'small but powerful'!
Comes with carrying case (well known) only for a head!
the cab it ... suffer!
Connectivity to the main cab and 2 head 8 and 16 OHM
An input Jack! No footswith, damage ...
Classics at Vox: A gain, volume, Equal 3 bands, a Bright switch for u its creamy ... Hummmm that's good! And how THICK, a more hard for those who love the overdrive Vox done well. I hang myself! Uh no reverb is better for a little amp is preferred when it matters!

UTILIZATION

A config can not be simpler!
Manuel clearly ... but useless when you know it, not really, I have not had to.
This gives her her very quickly, touching the knobs found!

SOUNDS

My styles, Blues Rock Some Hard, Funk, Garage.
A decent amp badly! hehe!
One can switch between the above lens (at What Vox) to a more hard where the notes are more difficult to distinguished.
I play with a Dunlop Cry Baby, a Cathedral EHX, MXR Micro Amp and a Boss CE-1. Guitar, Epiphone Les Paul (SG) with Maestro!
I like the sound that comes out creamy and warm and I use Bright mode unless the mode Thick or so with my boost to make her a yucky greasy and a little fuzz (like The Black Keys older albums)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year or so. And I'm still not tired!
I used a lot of other amps before this one, I finished it (in a good way)!
Its part effective, small, portable, good and powerful! (Do not worry, the battery did not resist)
Ratio Q / P, 9 / 10. A real cheap solution.
Yeah ... I might redo the choice to take it back later!

Keep Rockin '!
PEACE.

Well, this cot nothing complicated ... T say it all and is simple to get to know a site specially for the tech sheet Retailer ...

Note, however, a good trs: pentode-triode switch to halve the power ...
15 watts is not large you tell me?!?!
Well, remember that it is an amp lamp, and you do not all fortunate to live in a mansion lost or hard to have deaf neighbors .. .

And another benefit is the grain allows for high-volume lamps without using a power brake ...

SO: big good point for this option.

BIG BIG POINT also on the quality of manufacture.

Default even when small: a micro reverb has done well ... It is the length of an Accutronics and yes it's a little more quickly connect to a PDAL ... But it's really a dtail.

Ah yes, a small effect loop would cool t default to have a verb ...

BUT: even when they gave me great pleasure in delivering an original carrying case (and with its small weight it gnial and practice).


EDIT: Oh, by the way, I test two cabs in shop (10 and 12 for the Vox models).
Obviously I chose the 12 ... But it sounds even better on my V30 as the original greenback.

UTILIZATION

So this cot ... What about ...

The manual must always be in the box.

5 knobs ... Gain - Trebble - Middle - Bass - Volume

Basically, there's just connect ...
Mrs. a child of two years should do it.

Note, however, for novices in the world of amps lamps, the standby switch is confused in pentode-triode switch.
I find it a very practical and well thought out but for someone who never jou on amp lamp, as one of my friends came to test it before buying it, although respect the r gle "Standby Power" and "Standby-Power."

But if not, say anything, very simple: PLUG & PLAY.

SOUNDS

So we approach the last point INTERESTED.

I only play rock, which is more like English (look at my stuff's not Marshall Mesa) ...
In this style, no problem ... It has a bit to that when I took it even.

But it does not just a.

Yes, I play a lot of blues, punk, metal and ...
So watch out, I'm not saying that excels in these styles, but it dbrouille trs well.
It does not compete with the classics of the genre, but it holds up ... And even though trs.

Next guitar I plug into it, I may as well have mlodieux cleans and sweet, a good big disto ... And he has no problem with the harmonics. True, the bottom with the gain, and I find myself sending limits too.

Moreover, even a good-thick bright mode which increases the gain significantly ... This reminds me a lot of amps offer a vintage fashion and modern fashion.

Therefore Russi.


reverb.

OVERALL OPINION

So I've had it about 3 months. But I play it low (about 5 hours per week).
Finally, enough to have my word.

Basically this is my amp flat.
The rest of the time in the studio or RPET, I play on my other amp (Engl Screamer, Marshall JCM, Marshall Mosfet, 1970 ...).
And I change as many guitar amp (I had to have a dozen DIFFERENT amp) ...
I also rotates with the gear or other locs (Plexi, AC 30, Twin Reverb, Bassman, Ultra, Brunetti, Mesa, Soldano ... And surely I forget).
But basically I have a bunch of jou amp (lamps).

Finally I m'gare.

Basically, if you are wondering what is this amp, go test it.
I think as you like (it took me just 5 minutes).

In addition it's stupid, but it is beautiful with its vintage look.

And for the price, I think there's no time to ask the question ...

Amp head lamps of 15W. Possibility to use it in 7.5 W.
Level connectivity, an input jack, a gain, a four knob 3, 1 volume, bright switch 1 / thick, a pentode switch / standby / triode, i switch on / off.
16hom output.

No effects loop, no and no footswitch rverbe

Supplied with a carry bag for arm's length (about 7kg), the small size doing the rest.

Rating: 7

UTILIZATION

Setup could not be more simple without being too simple
The four works, the sounds obtained in bright mode or thick (which cancels the four) are in line Vox, so perfect for me.

Diffrent the options proposed by the small head ventail consquent offer sound and color, the type of guitar used with good will tend Obviously (or rduira, c ' think is!)
Nevertheless, there is always a good sound at the end.


Rating: 8

SOUNDS

This is exactly the type of amp I was looking for. Plutt playing stuff from blues to hard rock, the night train ensures properly.

I use it mainly in bright mode, the gain at 3 / 4 to get its type Stones / AC-DC with a Les Paul Junior (Gibson and / or Epiphone). In the BPS knob volume is set to 3 or 4 and was enough to send a good balance with the other guitar, bass and drums.

To overcome the lack of rverbe I added a Boss Fender Deluxe 63 RV1 to keep in mind vintage suits me and it's nickel.
I also added a squeeze of Lemon Modtone pedals to boost solos.

I use it only for a few RPTES, I'm still refining my sound so I must return this page complter ultrieurement, once I trennea b you live for example.

Rating: 8

OVERALL OPINION

I've had only one month so it's always the idyll. Provided that lasted!

Before I have a Marshall Valvestate 50w possd I used only the house and I liked my faith. (But why I speak to pass it is still in the basement!). otherwise I used to use Marshall JCM900 Blues or classic Peavey.

What I like is the sound Vox without a trainer does death AC30 type. Although I do sr prtends not done everything it reaches the level of the latter but frankly it is the srieusement dtour.
The least are the absence of sr rverbe and footswitch to switch between another config (from bright to thick, for example).
The more, the size, weight, ITS VOX.

And yes, I do it again this choice (still happy APRS only 1 month)

OVERALL OPINION

Hello,
I think. Trs good little amp lamp. Trs typical of his vox. Clear sounds clear and very versatile crunch. Many possibilities.
Likes: Its simplicity its heat, its rglages effective, its look, the concept.
I do not like: the "Sick" (too crillart see unworkable "), the absence of loop" effect and the foot switch.
Note: Unlike its minimalism, it must be a regular amp lamps, and what use this type of amp. Similarly, the effects type "rverd" or "Dlay" go wrong in "crunch" (o my regret about the effects loop).
Not knowing your level, and for what use, my advice stop l.
Price for buying: 250 *
Attention, although its bec Cab (Vox prconise the Greenback. I, for one more j'obtenrai Vintage 30, and 12 inches - a 10 as "too restrictive"!)
For availability,
Christophe

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, no need of the manual.

SOUNDS

Tried it with a telecaster on Blackstar 1X12 Celestion speaker.
Beautiful sounds clear and saturated oriented rather vintage, gives more in the thick hairy. This amp is versatile.
The 7.5 W seems too high to play at home without disturbing but you can finesse the gain.
Is the 15 W is sufficient for group play or concert? I could not test it.

I've paired this with a 1x12 avatar cab with an alnico blue in it and it just sings. Even drove a 2x12 avatar cab with it last weekend and it was easily loud enough to be heard over a full band turned up loud at just half volume! (running on pentode mode)

UTILIZATION

If you set it up right it gives you amazing flexibility at your guitar. I don't even use my distortion pedal anymore -- fiddling with volume and pickup selection is more than enough to dial in a whole range of tone (helped by the fact that my PRS custom 22 can play in both single coil and hum bucking configurations.)

SOUNDS

The bright channel is just that, bright -- and with the stock cabinet and a fender strat itll sound downright shrill. Most of the complaints I've heard say something to this effect, but set it up properly and mate it to a good, closed back cabinet and you're in business. If you want the great tone of a small wattage amp, are on a budget, but still need some serious volume, this thing will more than suffice. And my god does it sound good!

OVERALL OPINION

Overall this is a very well built piece. Cosmetically you couldn’t ask for a prettier, shiny amp. I'm sure no matter where you go you will find someone who will have a list of negatives to throw at it. The thick channel in my opinion leaves alot to be desired.

I will warn you that the treble should not be turned past noon if you don't want piercing, brittle highs. I have been told that changing the preamp tubes and altering the bright cap can help this but I personally haven't done this so I don't know. If your a hobby player like myself or if you gig; this amp may suit your preferences. It may take a little time to find your sound, but what the hell that's half the fun.

Tube amp
15w
Jack
The relages are trebble, bass, gain, volume. switchable to 7.5W.

UTILIZATION

It is vox plug, and play.
While a channel with possibility to mount the gain or to play almost in the clear by keeping a minimum ... a lot of combinations are possible. The sound is warm and powerful prcis with HP quality!! Celestion G12 in this case ..
I have no manual, useless, which is manu?

SOUNDS

To play at home, a small volume, it's really super, blues or rock, it offers the grain is nice (test RALIS with Gibson Humbuckers).
Trs trs trs is trs trs heavy, it looks like a toaster lead, it is surprising.
but this gives it a charm more beautiful than the orange terror tini

OVERALL OPINION

I test in situ, with a scratch for two hours (the seller is going to rfugier in the basement of the store) .. well nothing to say, I have a classique30, a fender 12W lamp. .. This head is well built, with its British ensured ... the VOX!
Here, for the Stade de France is a bit young, but among friends, at home to work plans of all style, it's really good .. in fact I am returning with a guitar team of Lollar history .. well cost the "Night Train" hot.

Aprsmfiez you baffle that goes with it is important for sound, and environment of the listening space ...'( the pice).
The report price is good quality and no more. (+ - 470) for the lamp on transistor, made in China (?)... that does not impede me jai lots of stuff made in China, it is often great.
By looking at what the cons will concurence rpliquer ... it's a new philosophy amp: Remember, it is desirable to achieve a 15W, plutt as a curb 30.

This is a 15W tube amp All 7.5W switchable in the basic rglages are Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass and Volume.

UTILIZATION

This amp is a vox you branch your guitar you hack a few knobs and rings. Basically you plug your guitar into the Input on the front panel you mount the volume and gain knobs you but in the middle of EQ and you can play live APRS is just a question of his ears to find the that will appeal. The manual? No need with this amp is for the Rock and Roll!

SOUNDS

So what about the sound ... This is the ultimate vintage sound warm and prcis, the clear, warm harmonic distortion and harmonic bursts. The amp has a switch "Bright / Thick" which is neither more nor less than a clear channel and another distortion when you are on Bright disposz you a pretty his English properly and ds you bring the knobs on "Thick" attention up to the big sound VOX all VOX fan of love is rich is rich, it's big, it's powerful, that's all Like About VOX.
For my part I play with a Epiphone Sheraton II semi-hollow and I'm plugged into a homemade cabinet with an HP which I know nothing except that I have sound! I rock with Psychdlique but also blues and rock and roll he never due, the Fidler bte!

OVERALL OPINION

What I like most about this VOX is the sound, this unique grain espce reminds me so much the sound of Rory Gallagher, the Stones finally account of the great rock and roll era! If I had to do what his choice would not hsit I jump is the best amp I've had in my entire young life to amateur rock musician, I went through Fender Hot Rod, and Marshall Berhinger same (yes I know ...) but no one had ever any amp do it before ...
Finally I remark that is done, but it is only incidental but MRIT to be said: it lacks a reverb!
Good luck on those and the rock be with you! Keep rockin '!

any lamp, 15w cathode in, 7.5 in triode triode, adjustable gain and master afternoon, killing a dj pretty clean mode, as to the crunch, for help. power, saturation, overdrive wish, you have to play with the gain to find the right balance and we ls osn research. a breeze.

UTILIZATION

Yes. Just plug in and turn a little chicken heads!

SOUNDS

I have everything I want from the "channel" clear. a good crunch with the gain knobs flight prciss as above. the sound is a precision unstoppable.

OVERALL OPINION

I last month. the head will stay with me a bunch of time. I used bcp amp by forcment to get that choice. with the exprience? yes definitely. what I like least: nothing. what I love most: everything. is to say, the sound, the power (7.5W, I took the test with an engl 100w ct is the road without a problem. weight, happiness! with the notebook transport in bandoulire is the top. the look toaster, we do not care a bit, what matters is what comes out of this thing: incredible power, sound quality and precision! qualitprix report: less than 500 Roros the bte, hard to beat. APRS days I will give the next concert of the group. but given the rsultat in rpt , I think there will be no problem.'s over 100w big heads or you t'abimes all ears (and those of your neighbors) that back! or you can not put more than 2 or you DGIG windows. that's what I waited for years. thank you Vox.

given day, June 27, 2010.

Well. APRS prs a year the first notice, here is the second: I'll buy a deuxime! not a problem, no sound of buzz or anything else (this, I always ask myself the question when I read of users who have problem of background noise, with the Vox NT or other heads. gnralement was just a problem of poor land development ...).

Just an anecdote: in the first with Slideaway Blois in April, and it dballe the gear is installed. I put the bag with the head in on a high round bar table like 1.50m tall. the bar owner had not seen that I had put l. It moves the table and disaster! I hear a loud noise on the floor is the bag that had fallen! arrrrgghhhh! I open the bag with apprhension, and finds the DGAT: tle the lgrement PForm the right ct quans you look from the front, the two screws on ct the casses.a not show too and I think even when the bag is cushioned the fall.
Good. I plug in, no problem. nothing, nada. the bowl, I think. the sound is the power too. And since then, more than 10 concerts in conditions diffrent trs, no worries. I think I'm going to even buy me a back up, okazou.
short in terms of reliability I can only speak well of the head.
I gave him a gift: a special microphone sennheiser transplanting amp I use for the "big" concerts. she is happy trs) and me too! (See 2 photo)
not December, has c't'histoire really sounds too serious, especially since I built a 1x12 cabinet with an HP Vox replacing my office home made

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> <span style="font-size: 6.5pt; color: black; font-family: Verdana; mso-ansi-language: FR;">Tallume the amp in bypass mode. While hot, you t'chauffe a little bit.
Once you're a bit hot, you scratch your arm, you pass the amp triode mode (7.5 W).
You make a small thick round mode, sending you a little AC / CD
When you feel really hot, the amp also and also your neighbors, you go in Pentode and it's the end of the world!

It's simple, you expect you scratch your arm as a heater and go! The sound is great whatever the rglages oula scratches.

No need for manual, it's Plug'n Play.

It's a light amplifier, so the more you push the amp, the sound is good!</span>

OVERALL OPINION

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> <span style="font-size: 6.5pt; color: black; font-family: Verdana; mso-ansi-language: FR;">I bought it about a month ago.

It is small, but it is heavy! When I carry, I limpression to walk a cinderblock! But it's even more lightweight than a big head or AC30H Marshall!
It has a nice cover to a front pocket big enough to put the cable of power supply, one or two Cables for the HP 3 mdiators and Pepito.
The cover includes a strap to wear the shoulder.
There is a protective foam on the handle to avoid having to hurt the hand when the door a long time.
I like the look of mchant toaster.
I tried the Orange Tiny Terror of before buying the Night Train.
I prfr grain Vox.
I think it is worth its price, given the pratica and the sound it makes.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">

All lamps 7/15w single channel with two modes. Too bad it does not have a second channel ...

UTILIZATION

configuration very simple, it's plug and play! Few adjustments, a 3-band active EQ on the bright mode only.

SOUNDS

Perfect companion in the apartment that was in the belly: it helped me out to a bar scene and has not flinched in front of a Vox AC30!
Bright mode changes from clean creamy, round and warm with a very bluesy overdrive mode when an overdrive attack Thick round (like a TS-808) to a saturation always vintage.

OVERALL OPINION

Ideal for work in the apartment and used without problem by repeating 'or small stage!

The amp is in two parts: Tete a 15W lamp with two lights and two preamp amp, a mono jack input, two outputs (8 / 16 Ohm) for speaker (do not connect two speakers at the same time ..)
Available settings: Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass, Volume
A two position switch Clear Channel (Bright) and saturated (Thick)
A three position switch with standby in the Central, the top position mode 15W (pentonde) and bottom triode mode (7.5W)
A switch on / off and a red LED (control ignition of the amp)

The cabinet is equipped with a 16 Ohm input, the HP is a 1X12 celestion

UTILIZATION

The use of the amp is very simple, just connect the speaker at the head using the jack provided (do not use a guitar jack but jack HP). Make sure you connect the speaker on the Vox 16 Ohm output of the head.
Once the head connected to the cabinet, connect power to the head and check that the amp is turned off and standby. Put the receiver in position, let it heat for about ten minutes to avoid endomamger lamps (lamps play with a cold can weaken them, I have already experienced, my light turned red fire and slammed into ten seconds ..) then go to one of two modes namely pentode (15W) or triode (7.5W) (triode mode delivers less sharp, the sound is a little more crude than the pentode) .
The grain of the amp go out very easily, it is not necessary to push the amp up the sound for vox English has made the brand's excellent reputation.

SOUNDS

This amp is a very good amp so it is quite versatile but I recommend it especially for those who want a vintage sound (50 to 80 years).
I play it with:
- 1968 Fender Telecaster '
- Gibson ES 345 1969 '
- Gibson Songbird Deluxe
- Ibanez RGT6EX-IPT
- Norma Florentine
- Gibson Les Paul Custom Black Beauty HHH 57 'Reissue
- 1976 Ibanez Custom Les Paul "HHH
- Custom Ibanez RG Series
- JS Series by Aria Pro II


I play mostly clean sound with the gain 1 / 5 and the switch / light-saturated mode thick (saturated) to give some teeth to the sound (especially with the telecaster, the sound that comes out is exactly the the Rolling Stones)
My settings are:
Vintage clear sound:
Gain 1 / 5, Thick Mode, Treble 1 / 5, Middle 4 / 5, Bass 4 / 5, volume 2 / 5, Pentode (15W)
Its saturated (Hard Rock): Gain 4 / 5, mode Thick, Trebble 2 / 5, Middle 3 / 5, Bass 2 / 5, Volume between 1 / 5 and 2 / 5
Are clear (acoustic)
Same setting as vintage but clear bright mode

You can experiment yourself your settings, the sound is very versatile but is really his home vox.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this amp for six months, I had the opportunity to try many others but none that manages to give me the same feeling as this one.
It has an exellent biting, he can be sweet without being either marshmallow. It's like I said a lot, a exellent amp.
His biggest strength is to let the grain out without having to turn up the volume on high, you get quick vox sound without turning up the volume to maximum. In addition, its small size allows it to take him by repeating 'or in the rooms or you play without problem on this amp. I use it at home, repeating, and I have only one inconveniant: it is heavy. But compared to other amps, it is not really. I weighed several oranges (including the tiny terror and dual terror), they weigh more and handle the vox is really much better.
If one day I ended up turning pro in the music and the same pattern emerged in large format, I buy it without even trying it.
This is an amp that I recommit to all those who want to invest in a very good amp that does not take much space and can provide so much power that the amplifier triple in size. The report qualitée price is very well respected.

Technical data already written.
Missing is an effects loop, exits 16 and 8 ohms are very convenient.

UTILIZATION

Operation is very simple.
This gives very good sound quickly.

SOUNDS

All lamps are there, the sounds are really hot, that's what I like, that desire to crunch, it responds very well.
A range of very different just obtained with the control gain.
As soon as you saturate it sounds really VOX.

OVERALL OPINION

There is almost a year since I played on this amp. I get more sounds with modulation pedals, he responded very well to them.
The price / quality ratio is good even if I Truva material beacoup too expensive overall.
It lacks a position 1 watt for the home.
I do it again this choice.

All-tube amp head. Several levels of output very useful.
Trimmings on such classic amp vintage characteristics.

UTILIZATION

Super simple, one branch and we play. We test the different options.
Vox sound is still there regardless of the setting and it's just beautiful.

SOUNDS

I particularly like the position that is more gross Thick and disconnects the settings medium severe acute.
You enter straight into the world psyche / rock 60/70 years. That is the best guitar sounds that we have heard. Vox grain is widely present.

OVERALL OPINION

It is largely a Vox AC30 and is much more convenient. It does not weigh a dead donkey.
In addition it is beautiful and seeing the quality of this amp is worth.

See previous review is very comprehensive.

UTILIZATION

You plug, you play!
The manual is still in plastic ...

SOUNDS

Ben, the sound is crude foundry.
You play on the knobs and you send the blues, rock, heavy rock (AC / DC, Guns ...)
The clean is excellent.
I play with Gibson Les Paul, Epi Zakk Wylde EMG ZW +, Fender Lite Ash Fender Dave Murray, this little gadget with all the beautiful sounds!
I will buy a small pedal to the St. Michel and this will be perfect.

OVERALL OPINION

I tested the Tiny Terror is very good too (not worse, not better, different is all) and I found my account with more than the NT, which is a notice that m is clean.
Tastes and colors ....
It is a superb amp, with a small seal these vintage lamps seen blushing through the grid, it throws.
Try it.

The VOX NT15 is one of the earliest additions to the "lunch box" family of amps that has been a popular fad. It begun with the Orange Tiny Terror and progressed to further amps like the Egnater Tweaker, the Traynor DarkHorse, the Mesa Transatlantic, and of course this VOX.

The characteristics are very simple and straightforward for a small head. It delivers 15 watts of all tube power and is switchable via a half power mode to 7.5 watts. The amp is powered by a pair of EL84 tubes and really sings. The control set on this amp is very simple. It has a very basic interface that comprises a gain control, bass, middle, and treble for your equalization, and a master volume. There is also a small switch that is labeled "Bright" and "Thick." Bright mode is very much like your typical VOX jangly clean tone (AC15/30) at lower gain settings, and takes on an almost Brian May esque character as you turn the gain up. Flipping it over to the "Thick" setting actually disables the EQ controls and bumps up the gain for a more focused, heavy rock sort of sound.

One thing to note is that there's no effects loop or reverb on this amp, so you're dealing with a totally dry signal unless you own a good delay or reverb unit. That was a big caveat for me and part of the reason I ultimately sold it.

UTILIZATION

Setting up this amp is very simple. It can be plugged into an 8ohm or 16ohm cabinet, so I tried it through my personal Haggerty Enclosures G212 with Eminence V12 speakers, an Ibanez 4x12 with stock speakers, and a Marshall 4x12 with Celestions. It was very easy to set up and I had good tones happening within minutes. I found it to sound best and most focused through my 2x12 with the more British voiced speakers.

The Bright Mode is your typical sixties VOX clean tone. If I needed more versatility, I would use the Bright mode, turn the gain up on the amp and use my guitar volume to control cleans. I occasionally experimented with a boost pedal, but usually I found the setup of using the Bright mode and my guitar volume to be the best bet. If I was playing in more of a rock setting, I would use the Thick mode with the gain at about 1 oclock.

Make no mistake, this amp has tonnes of gain and a surprising amount of headroom on tap... I was using it in a modern rock project with a hard hitting drummer and it kept up without issue at all times.

SOUNDS

When I was using this amp, my primary guitars were a Gibson Les Paul Traditional Plus and a Charvel San Dimas with Duncans. I was really impressed with the wide range of tones that were available by turning the knobs or using the guitar volume and tone controls. The fact that it technically is not a channel switcher was a bit of a drag in certain situations (A footswitchable mode for the Bright and Thick modes would be excellent.

Overall I was significantly impressed with the tones that it covered. It went very easily from that classic chiming VOX clean tone to a very viscous and searing modern rock tone with the flick of the switch. Switching into half power acted as a bit of a Variac type thing where it made the feel of the amp a little bit spongier and the tone a bit more juicy. The Thick mode was a shocker for sure... it stood toe to toe with a 100w Peavey ValveKing and 4x12 cabinet in a band setting... in half power no less! I had no problems cutting over drums, bass, and the aforementioned half stack, so if you're concerned about volume levels... try one out and see for yourself. It has a considerable amount of headroom for an amp its size and power.


OVERALL OPINION

All in all I feel that VOX is onto a real winner with the Night Train. I compared it to the Orange Tiny Terror, the Traynor Dark Horse and Mesa Boogie Transatlantic, and found it to be the winner easily. What it lacks in some of those extra features (channel switching, various tonal modes, etc) it makes up for in spades with its clear, powerful tone. Definitely a serious contender in the "lunch box" amp market IMO. I sold it to pay for other purchases (and because of the lack of reverb/effects loop) but I definitely would consider another one down the road. For $500 or so brand new, VOX has an amp that sounds just as good as the Dr. Z Maz and the hot rod Marshall amps. Certainly a wise buy, and I'd recommend it in spades over any of the other small amps that I listed above.

see previous users.
Have reached a good 8 / 10 reverb if there was ...

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use. One branch, it sets the amp, and the rest, we Sort this out with the guitar volume.

SOUNDS

The triode mode is very satisfactory for the low volume, but the lights do not issue all their subtlety in pentode mode where it gets really fine grain Vox. Sound is generally well defined even when the user pushes thick. I play it with a Gretsch Corvette and a Telecaster with a homemade set of microphones BKP "The Boss". I also had the opportunity to try it with a PRS "entry level" and I still saliva ... The amp is able to really respect the sound of each instrument. I use it with the small speaker designed to go with Vox, which has a 12 inch greenback. I would invest in the future probably in a 2x12 alnico blue hp equipped to take even better advantage. The clean sounds are good but it's really the crunch I'm thrilled. Thick mode allows serious distortion and quite readable but I think many might prefer to add a guitar distortion to have more control over the whole in terms of tones. It can provide much more substantial distortion than necessary in my case.

OVERALL OPINION

My goal was to dig up my amp that produces beautiful sounds crunch playing with the volume of the guitar, and I can use in an apartment without causing civil war. In addition to the night train, I also tried a Vox AC-15 (very disappointing), an AC-30CC2X (excellent but too powerful), a Fender Blues Junior (tweed version is excellent but no longer available, it would have been add the budget for the amp mod), a Peavey Classic 30 (very good but too powerful), and a Delta Blues from the same manufacturer (even better but same problem).
I hesitated a long time between Delta Blues Vox and head for very different reasons. Both models responded to my query and I can not forget the incredible heat from the sound of Peavey (an HP 15-inch and more lights). But I think the Vox is a bit more versatile, does not weigh a dead donkey, and many users of the Delta blues that despite the excellent sound of the amp complain of the problem of lamps that vibrate because of the media questionable quality. So I tried that in the immediate, assuming it was better to push a 15 watt that a bridle 30, the Vox would suit me best and I'm not disappointed! I keep still too little known the Delta Blues in a corner of your head if one day I would invest in something more powerful.
