MA120 MKII : A workhouse

I use the POD X3 Pro guitar modelling processor and the MA120 (sometimes together with PA M 12 ECO) covers my needs for monitoring and/or amplifying on stage. I often also often use it as an combo under rehearsal complementing my POD X3 Pro.

I have even used it as PA in an outside area of approx. 250 square meters without any problems and with lot of power to spare, so it's very versatile.

On the cons side, the box is very heavy but it's probably hard to do it different and I also miss that it can send mic level output to for example the house mixers when that applies. The line level I/Os are XLR only and it would also be nice to have the balanced jacks there.

The sound is not HiFi and it's not supposed to be that either; it sounds perfect under live events and in rehearsal situations and that is what I'm using it for.

I give handling, features, sound and quality four stars, but the total is without doubt 5 strong stars when you involve the price into the picture. I can usually place all my ordinary gear on a hand truck with the MA 120 in the bottom and it is essential for making my live gear as versatile as it is now. I strongly recommend it.
