«  Disappointing »

Published on 06/09/14 at 11:50
Small head 2 or 1.5 watts according to imped to be connected (8 or 16 ohms).
Knobs treble, bass, gain and volumetric no medium but a bright switch / thick which acts on the mids and adds body. The knobs are gentle to use, it's a good point. The switches seem quality.
No bypass, but this power and saw the lamp power stage it was not much interest.
An output hp and therefore a ridiculous line out with emulation. Ridiculous because the format mini jack and as I say further, unfortunately poor. This point latch design that exudes a certain external quality.
Ultre head transportable to finish.

UTILIZATION

Relatively simple use in mind. The bright switch / thick can play on records and it is a good idea given the lack of mediums.
So the part preamp nothing wrong in terms of usability and ergonomics, it rolls.
on the other hand do not get something out of the output line. It emulates a hp output disconnects the actual output hp. on the other hand why a mini jack output to line level? This requires they put him eun adapter and so it will degrade the signal is only marginally usable at the base. It is a gadget to listen with headphones but not looking Sir quality. It is light years ahead of a team that redbox amps H & K. .. I even tried to regain its output line out via a torpedo to simulate a good sound microphone + speaker: nothing to get too of acute, it is screaming it lacks body andThe sound is generally broullion. Big disappointment on this point 'the note takes a hit because a small ampl, of modern design, should provide quality one on this type of service. Concurence did Vox so why not?

SOUNDS

The sound of taste so no debate on that.
12 hp on a Celestion v30 sounds not too bad and even rather well clean and crunch.
The clean vox wears footprint. Not clean and it is precisely his interest. On Set a slight natural compression nice. Mode turns it thick with double crunch even if the gain is not too advanced. It's also nice comprehensively except those screaming treble. Disto thrust is too rough, imprecise. The sound is not bad but being accustomed to playing on much more specific amps, more defined, we feel that something is missing from that side. After maybe it sounds better on the Greenback ...
The amp has personality and that's a good point. Vintage grain but again there too acute. On many forums it is recommended to change the lamps on and off a capacitor. I believe that we should not go through there on the new gear and stamped vox.
Short mixed record, clean and crunch rather nice but too brouillone distortion when you push the gain.

OVERALL OPINION

I was looking for a little head to avoid my roaring 50 watts at home.
Vox arrived at my default because Tubemeister that I coveted no longer available. Big disappointment, I who owned a AC15, and even if you do not play in the same league, I expected a little more precise head. In over 20 years of music, I got into the hands of amps and usually I always try to push them into a corner to make my judgment. I triturated the tone of my guitar to adjust the sound too, but there Roxane 1000 or nima my Telecaster not have felt comfortable. Big disappointment also for the line out completely unusable.
Short unconvinced despite the big promo above, returned to my gear vendor who finally dug me TubeMeister.
