Harley Benton MA-5 Miniamp 2-stars Reviews

Not worth it

It doesn’t sound good at all. It’s barely better than nothing. Cheap plastic. Battery cover doesn’t fit. Clean and dirty are the same. Save your money.

battery compartment door: too little

I understand that it is an entry level rather than a professional product but: the battery compartment door closes only if there is no battery inserted otherwise it will not be able to close again.

I also tried with batteries of different brands but nothing to do.

Frankly, having to fix with scotch a brand new product, uprsets a lot especially because it is something that even low-priced children's toys can do.

Low sound quality

I bought this product to use it hoping it would be more comfortable to use than a bigger amp.

I ended up not using it too much because it doesn't sound very well.

I wouldn't recommend buying it.

Pros: cheap, small, light

Cons: low sound sound, low quality controls

Go for something more expensive

It sound really bad with charger and a bit more ok with a battery.The speaker is rubbish.

Terrible with a purpose!

Initially, I bought this amp for my nephew to power his Yamaha Silent guitar and he finally got off my Vox amp. He?s happy with it and is finally practicing.

Don?t expect much; you get what you pay for. The OD is better than clean. Using an adapter does affect the clean and would give it a little bit of distortion, but when it?s on batteries, it?s much better.

I wouldn?t recommend it to anyone except if you have a kid who?s constantly using your expensive equipment and you want them off your back.
