Micro VR Head : The sound for the money is hard to beat

For this kind of money, I can´t think of anything that beats this.

This is a simple amplifier without anything excessive. It is very easy to dial in a great sound right away!

I must say though, because of the size and weight, it does feel like a toy. Don´t get me wrong, it is sturdy and reliable, but looks kind of funny and cute when it sits upon a larger cabinet.

I eventually sold it and bought the ampeg pf-500 to replace it. The pf-500 has a similar sound and more power. The extra 300 watts i got in my new amp are nice to have, but I have to say, there is something special about the sound the micro VR makes. I believe it is the Mosfet-power amp which sounds just great when slightly overdriven.

Buy it if you enjoy the "ampeg sound", but don´t expect it to pump out tons of volume, these 200 watts only go so far..
