- • Optimized 8” woofer/1” tweeter provides surprisingly full-bodied sound for its size.
- • Built-in effects, particularly the decay reverb, are genuinely usable and musical.
CONS

- • Five channels, while flexible, can be a bit complex for simpler acoustic setups.
- • The Mid Frequency control on some channels feels less precise than desired.
