"Buy this amp if you have a lick of sense!"

(see rating details)

Overall, this is a great amp for the price, and if I have to, I will replace it with the same product. It has all I need for the many uses I require, and the sound is excellent--from nasty to sweet at the flick of a front-placed switch.

Sound
Excellent sound for an amp of this size. I use it for practice, in my classroom (I'm a 5th grade teacher), and on stage--miked through the sound system. I play rock, praise music, and American classics/folk music, so I require versatility--and does this amp ever have it!! I run a Korg synth, a Kurzweil SP, and electric guitars through it, and it handles whatever I throw its way with poise and power. 15 watts never sounded so good to me.

Features
Great features on this little "can-do" amp. The various settings--you can combine to select over 30--create mood and sounds that aren't available on most other amps, no matter what the size and cost. This little guy touts itself as a "true analog modeling amp," and it truly is (usually that marketing stuff is just hype). I love the ability to play CDs through it while I jam--excellent for practice, and in my case to help my students sing along (I am tone deaf). I have only been using it for a month, but the components have been fine; I have been using a Behringer Eurodesk soundboard for 2 years with little trouble, if that's an indicator.

Quality
It is a great looking, and seemingly very solid,… read more little amp. Only a month in, I think it will last a long time. On the road, it would be a practice/hotel room amp; it was not really designed for stage use, but it is rugged and will hold up well.

Value
About 60 bucks for a quality little amp--it's about time!!!

Manufacturer Support
Behringer is about like every other large company--I hate them all equally! Make sure you get a good dealer is my advice. I have not needed to contact this company, however.

The Wow Factor
I get great comments from eveyone who sees it--musicians like the way it llks as much as the way it sounds.
